Illumination can pump out perfectly fine animation and rendering, no question there. But their storytelling talents are narrow and pale in comparison to many other animation studios. The Mario movies' bare-bones ultralinear story was likely as focused as it was due to Nintendo's oversight of the project.
The Big N could do a lot better than Illumination.
