Weird CGI Moments

 Another artcile I found on Total Film's website which was right up my alley. The list is made up of 50 weird CGI moments from a variety of films including the face of Tom Hanks in The Polar Express and Jim Carey in A Christmas Carol, the baby from Twilight Breaking Dawn Part 2 and a young Jeff Bridges in Tron Legacy.


I was particularly pleased to find Twilight on there as when I wrote my review (which you can find here) I wrote about how weird the baby's face looked. I haven't seen a lot of the films on this list but now I feel like I absolutely have to.

Have you seen any weird CGI moments in film?
Don't forget to read the full article here.

Outfit | Cinema Trip


I wore this WAY back in August on a trip to the cinema with my parents to watch Dawn of the Planet of the Apes which by the way was absolutely brilliant, a bit more talky then the first one but still a fantastic watch.

Onto the outfit. I bought this little jacket a while back in Primark I really love the baseball jacket style and have wanted one for ages, I should have brought this one back though as the stupid thing doesn't have any pockets. The top was another buy from a while ago but from ASOS, I originally ordered a size 8 but it was huge so I re-ordered a 6 instead which is still quite big but I never reordered another size.
The jeans were a birthday present from my sister as much as I love them they sit way way too low, and finally these awesome shoes are from New Look.

Bomber Jacket, Primark - £10 | Longline Cami, ASOS - £10 | Jeans, Gift | Slip On Plimsoles, New Look - £11.99
