Good choices, that said I think 10 still holds up fairly well today with the PS4 remaster ^_^ Have played it a couple of times since the original launch.
I think the graphics are cool but that voice acting needs updating 😂- Riff Machine and Luseth

No, we haven't gone. We wanted to, but the cost just meant we couldn't make it work and now our kids are virtually in their teens so I think we've missed the magical boat for this. If anyone can afford the cost, I think its a worthwhile trip for the memories. Just a bit hectic i've heard given how much you have to cram into 1-2 days, alongside the plane journey too.
If I see any tips from some of my IRL people i've grown up around, i'll share them here.
I’ve got it priced up at £2000 for 4 days including the flights, a rustic cabin 15 mins from the Santa land and car hire….its a lot of money for a short time but the memories…. -
Looking to take the kid to Lapland in November this year. Anyone got any tips or hints?

Ready Player One is in my top 5-10 films too @Luseth, it is really hard to pick just a top 3 given we can easily watch so many these days over and over 😄
@Middle Class Caveman, I'd actually put the last Harry Potter film up there. I think as the films went on, they got darker and bigger budgets. HP7 Part 2 is the main one we always go back and watch out of all of them.
Yeh I agree with that about Harry Potter - lots of feels in the last one for sure

Just picking three films I found is really hard. So many greats to pick from!
Also, I didn't want to pick LotR, SW or HP because I felt like that was kind of cheating, even though they are all amazing.
Would you really put Star Wars or Harry Potter up there? I really enjoy both franchises and their respective other content etc but in terms of actual 'films' I think both franchises are mediocre at best - I think the stories are interesting enough but the big win is the character buy in. And I don't mean execution, I mean we can all relate/empathise with Luke or Harry. However, the execution of those characters is rather clunky and hap hazard.
If you think about Gladiator on your list, it is excellent on so many levels. Russel Crowe is stoic and firm, Joaqiun Phoenix is horrid and cruel. The story is compelling yet relatable. The sets are true to the time period and not over done. The costumes look realistic, the fighting is well choreographed and have great flow.....That is a high quality film with very few things to really criticise. Star Wars on the other hand starts with the shittiest hallway scene known to man (as proven by the do over in Rogue One) 😀
In fact, compare the opening scene in Gladiator to that of A New Hope or Scorcers Stone......wow.

Real Steel
Big Hero 6
Avengers Endgame
I love loads of different films, including dark, intricate plots, etc...but feel good, easy to watch films will always be what I love. Watch them so many more times than the Oscar winning films.
Matrix is up there, and I actually think True Lies and the new Tetris is in the mix too.
Real Steel makes me cry, every single time- GazzaGarratt and Riff Machine

Hateful 8 is good but I think it’s a bit cheesy in some places. I’ve never seen black hawk down- Riff Machine and IRaMPaGe

I also understand what Elliot says, for me the best is still vice city stories for both size and campaign. I think as you say the map has to be huge to facilitate online and as far as I'm concerned they could dump online in the bin. Only really use it for our races.
100% agree!- techno, Riff Machine and GazzaGarratt

Ever since San Andreas or Liberty City, I just feel like these games have got 'too big'...does that make sense? Obviously some of them in the past have just had poor story lines etc but for me GTA5 was just fucking massive and I really struggled to follow the story line of the three characters. Like is it a sandbox or not etc. They always make a good game to be fair but for me I just can't get behind the hype anymore because it just feels like the game has to be huge with lots of complicated mechanics now to warrant the dev time.
I'm an old man, I like my old fashioned top down original GTA where the most pressing thing I had to do in a game was run over the Hari Krishna's at the start of each level 😀

I always feel like the cinematics are way better than the actual games for Warhammer. They always feel a bit clunky. However, I do feel like they pay off the hardcore lore nerds well so that's a plus.

I think it’s a refreshing take on those movies and Snyder really hit the mark with the feeling of doom and gloom. Great casting too.

So Blizzard dropped this cinematic a couple of weeks ago and i've watched it so many times. It's beautiful. You don't even need to know the story or the characters to feel the emotions.
I think this might be my return to retail WoW because it just seems like they're trying to tell stories again rather than just 'look at this cool shit'.
I'm pretty done with classic to be honest because playing the same game from back in 2009 just doesn't feel like a good use of my finite gaming time.
Give this a watch and let me know what you think
