It's the 20th anniversary of 'The Island' this week. I always loved the very natural-looking VFX in that film. Also, loved that plates from 'The Island' were re-used in 'Transformers: Dark of the Moon'. Love it.

I love ILPVFX's VFX reel for 'Predator: Badlands'. Great way to see the work done for Dek's face and head, the leg removal for Elle Fanning's character, the Spray Snakes (spitters) and environment work. Love seeing a bit of roto in a breakdown, too!
