My point is that rotoscoping just depends more on actor movement than it does actual animation. How much sense does it make to compare the animation workload of Ghost in the Shell to A Scanner Darkly?

In the case of the Lord of the Rings, I don't. However.....The Hobbit was rotoscoped? Is there another version I'm unaware of or did they just add in a whole lot more exterior animation than usual?
