Baby Geniuses is the best movie about geniuses ever made: hands down. OK, not really. But it was the first movie to do what?

Answer Replicate human speech using CGI

Not for nothing, but this under-the-radar comedy was the first full-length feature to use CGI to look like a human mouth speaking. As explained on Wikipedia: "2D warping techniques were used to digitally animate the mouth viseme shapes of the babies which were originally shot with their mouths closed. The viseme shapes were sampled from syllables uttered by the babies on the set."
