Yeah, Up was a weird example for me, too, but as someone who has watched Moana two dozen times, it’s always beautiful. The people are aged, with deep lines, the sand and the water and the straw, all the textures, all beautiful, and the setting is of course gorgeous.
Lilo and Stitch is a similar background, also so so beautiful, but it doesn’t make Moana ugly or useless in comparison.
I don’t think it actually looks very good. The computer generated look is pretty fugly. Story is a different matte

Fugly? De gustibus, I guess…
