Yes. I am going to critically analyze the movie Pixels, directed by Chris Columbus. This movie is mostly live action, but it relies a lot on 3D effects and other animation. Without that, Pixels would not have worked out the way it did. They used the pixel aspect a lot, meaning they made things pixelated like an 80's video game would.
I would like to point out the application of the pixelation to real life people and objects. In the beginning an army base is attacked, they are shot and the building pixelates and falls into little glowing boxes that are in fact animated.
The second time they used this was when scientists in the lab were looking at one of the pixels to see what it was like, and what they could use to destroy it or break it up. They use light guns, which are also animated.
In the scene where they were fighting Pac Man, they used this effect multiple times. The creator of Pac Man went up to the alien Pac Man and reached out to him, but Pac Man bit him, and his arm pixelated like they did with objects in the past, which was probably very complicated. During the same sequence, Pac Man is destroying the city like seen here, causing more pixels. Multiple times in the movie, the aliens abduct people, and in the abduction guess what? They turn into pixels, and reformed inside the ship. The animation of the movie was very good, and, disregard all the acting and plot holes, I would give it an 8/10. There were minor glitches a trained eye could notice, but nothing causing too much problems. It was just pretty mediocre.
