I think the vibrancy and colours is what I liked most about Thailand.
Morocco I found boring, didn't like the map at all. The Colorado setting was great, but I think the level was too long (IE too many tasks).
Monaco was neat too.
I've only seen one trailer and don't know about any spoilers. Both will be great.

There’s a few locations in Hitman 2 I reckon you’ll love, hope there’s a Hitman 3 in the works.

Who else rates this is one of the best horror films of all time?

don’t think I’ve watched it in 25-30 years. Therefore it’s hard to gauge for me

I don’t think much has come out since then that’s troubled it. I live the films with the amazing special effects rather than all the CGI crap

Missus watched the 2019 Lion King film today whilst 'working from home'. The graphics on that are outrageously good.

Interesting that it was Barca that was criticised for their stance on Suarez.

Graphics though, it doesn’t really do it for me. Give me make up all day long. The bloke who did the special effects and make up for an American Warewolf in London was a genius

Part of why the recent Star Wars movies looked so good (cosmetically) compared to the prequels is that they had a huge increase in the practical effects used compared to CGI which dominated the sequels.
If practical effects are done well, they're ******* great.

There’s something about CGI that just looks wrong. It feels like you’re watching a video game. Models, make up etc may not always work as well as it could, but it’s still so much better than CGI. When I was watching Jaws with my little nephew he laughed so hard at the state of the shark when it landed on the boat to munch Quint near the end. I was so disappointed with the little shitbag. I guess kids may see it differently

Also from the same film, this clip is pretty legendary. But what do you notice that’s different from this scene to pretty much any dramatic scene you get now - or in fact probably the last 30 odd years?

TPM had the most practical effects of any SW film though.

Huh really?
It has been a while since I've watched but thinking back I don't think TPM was as bad as especially Attack of the Clones, visually.
And maybe it came down to sets and landscape too... like the Casino planet in TLJ was so out of place because it was so obviously CGI compared to everything else.

Last year was the first time I saw AOTC since watching it in the cinema on release. I’d always hated the film, but had forgotten how much CGI was used. Absolutely horrendous.

Sister in law got the antibody covid test done in the UK as she is a nurse.
Came up positive, she had covid previously without ever knowing. All close contacts (her husband, 2 nephews and parents in law) all came up negative for covid antibodies.

The Surprising Practical Effects of the Star Wars Prequels
The Star Wars prequels, seen as a turning point in computer generated imaging, were more model-intensive than you might think.

I loved AOTC and still do. The love scenes last for maybe 5-6 minutes of the film and the Obi-Wan detective plot plus the arena fight are both awesome.
