more human looking characters

Hi, I have just finished my first cartoon like animation, which was great fun. For my next project I wouldn’t mind doing a more real looking, or should I say involving characters that look more like people rather than cartoon characters. Kinda like Kurt’s ninja. Im sure you get the picture. Anyway iv been told that animating for this type of animation is really hard as it looks more real. Where with a cartoon character you can go crazy by having him/her do over exaggerated movements and have the characters pull all sorts of faces. I just wanted to hear what other animators think about this, because I have notice that when it comes to games like the new mortal kombat game, that the fighters in the beginning sequence are motion captured.
