Oh ya museums were days away if you were traveling from where I grew up unfortunately. Still learned about in nature and stuff along those lines. I wouldnt say awoken but was interesting to see lol. We will see how the 4k goes for this one and how much AI they used to smooth the image. I don't know how the original was shot for film but hopefully it's good. The scenes with plaster and costumes might be a bit risky though.
But we all shall see. I like the art on the case and sometimes that's all it takes for me to buy something.... I have alot of media ๐
I would read books and watch documentary as a young child when learning about the world.
