Future of Animation and Visual Effects

Theory: The animation and visual effects tendency is towards smaller organizations, and eventually individuals to make feature films; Films that soon might be possible to be made easier and more economical than the ones which employ real actors/environments.
As time passes and technology improves, new tools are being made every day that enable artists to work more efficiently and get the end-results faster and easier. A scene that could have employed 20 people to work on a few years ago, might be done individually today. Every year the number of CG-featured movies is increased. More and more movies employ computer generated characters and environments instead of real ones; Characters and environments that even a trained eye might get confused by watching them wondering whether they were computer generated or real. Will there be someday soon that the majority of characters/environments are computer generated instead of real?
