Disney responds to Dinklage's Snow White criticism: we "have been consulting with members of the dwarfism community"

But we have motion capture and passable CGI technology coming down in cost to where we don’t need to involve short humans to portray small mythological creatures. My feeling is that Disney would be making a mistake to cast dwarf humans as the Snow White fantasy dwarfs rather than using CGI.

They did that for a different version of the story, Snow White and the Huntsman, and it was met with disapproval.
