The whole process of CGI rendering and motion capture is quite fascinating and amazing technologies. I had read that the human actor portraying Buck was a Cirque Du Soleil alum, so obviously very athletic and flexible. I'm sure it made it easier for Ford to act opposite someone who can make eye contact than just a blank green screen. Just like animated movies, if it's a good story well done, one can totally be swept up into it emotionally, whether "realistic" or not.
