I love that there seems to be some unwritten rule about filming in South Australia. It's either gorgeous stunning natural wonders or SERIAL KILLERS AND SUPERNATURAL HORROR. No inbetween.

This isn't the best written or even best acted movie, but dammit, it's been a week and I'm still thinking about these sickeningly adorable joeys.

I'd give anything to see Guillermo del Toro's The Hobbit, Edgar Wright's Ant-Man and Steven Spielberg's animated version of Andrew Lloyd Webber's Cats, which was scrapped decades ago. #Filmsky 📽️
