Went to the movies today to see #PaddingtonInPeru. It felt... a bit slow. I was in a cinema full of young kids and they were laughing once or twice and only in the last part (kids only laugh when somebody gets kicked in the balls, so there was no ball-kicking or other slapstick violence before that).

The fur rendering (all done by #Framestore?) is amazing though. Especially in close-ups. With bits of dirt stick in the fur. Incredibly realistic!

Saw #wickedmovie at #ILM today at a #VES screening, where several of the ILM leads spoke at the end.

Great performances, excellent looking and sounding movie, and great VFX work by #ILM, #framestore, and all the folks that worked on it.

Super enjoyable.
