20 Shots From Popular Movies Show How Visual Effects Transform The Whole Thing

Published 8 years ago

For decades now there has been this debate raging between practical effects purists and the fans of computer-enhanced visuals over which works best. It is a thin line between making a creator’s vision complete but also turning it into believable and immersive imagery.

CGI (computer generated images) have come a long way since its humble beginnings in the 70’s. And these are exciting times for us viewers as we are hard-pressed to figure out whether what we see on the screen is actually there or came in post-production (ok, maybe not the case with Alice In Wonderland).

Here we give 20 movies for your judgment, let us know if they managed to pull it off.
