Toy Story, Antz and A Bugs Life are a few movies that spring to mind when I think of CG, all which create a static, artificial atmosphere.

Would you say that that's because of actual film direction and writing rather than the nature of animation itself? Aardman, which I still believe retains John Lasseter's 'story first, technology to support it' rule better than Pixar has (well, recently, anyway) have made some of the most absorbing and lively films ever.
Watch a short film like Steve Box's
Stage Fright, and the surreal effect of watching clay 'act' is overcome by the completely natural behaviour that his characters exhibit.
