First up I am a fantasy nut and love swords and sci-fi - so when I saw the previews for this I was like yeah! My girlfriend however was like - whaaaat? You want to see that? Anyway all that aside I had little expectations and was worried that the racoon would fall flat - but far from that he was probably the best character. The effects are that convincing and there are moments of sadness, hilarity, action and amazement. Well worth it. Recommended.

Despicable Me 2 2013
One thing first up about this film, seeing it in 3D Vmax I think was how stunning it looked - really walking deep in the uncanny valley. And that is saying something as the character design is creative and unconventional - but the objects in the film are lit beautifully. I was often amazed just at things like how real the textures or reflections were. So real. And yet not at all. The movie has as per the first one a good selection of laughs for all ages throughout the movie.

Ghost in the Shell 1995
Another of top films, number one in the Manga Genre and fighting for top film of all time in my book. An incredible achievement in animation, audio and story telling that has been reverered, emulated, copied and had many a homage in later cinema.

Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within 2001
Groundbreaking 3D production at the time, 10 years ago now, still looks amazing with the world that is created stunning in conception.
