  ★★ Watched 06 Mar 2025

  Was getting really bored of the White House set. Then it changed to some terrible CGI fighter jets and hoped it would change back as soon as possible!

  Gandhi 1982

  ★★★½ Watched 05 Mar 2025 1

  Ben Kingsley is stellar. Honestly kept forgetting it was him. I remember my friend Morgan telling me he based his characteristics on his Grandma in order to keep the role genuine.

  The “Good grief, it’s you” line still cracks me up every time I watch this film. 

  Fun little Easter egg: when Wallace enters the museum room full of animals you can see the Puma from the original 1989 version of creature comforts stuffed in a glass cage. Who ironically never appeared in the later 2003-2006 tv series. I’ve always thought that was great attention to detail for both productions. 

  God I love Aardman so much.
