#5 The Avengers

Not many genres of film rely on CGI and special effects more than one of the most popular super hero movies of all time – The Avengers. When Thor is battle The Hulk, there’s isn’t actually a very large, green, angry man running around – it’s just an average sized guy with a green costume! Or when buildings are burning and falling to the ground, that isn’t actually happening either. Green screens and computer generated graphics are absolutely necessary to create that drama filled scenery. It’s amazing to see how much of the scene is actually NOT around when the actors are putting together the fighting and other scenes that require a lot carnage on the big screen. Let’s just say that this film is a lot better off with those special effects!

#4 Avatar

Not many films required more special effects work than the 2009 super film Avatar. The 3D version was almost 60% computer generated, and reports suggest that the production of Avatar cost around $33M. Many people don’t know that the director of Avatar, James Cameron, actually started working on the film in the mid-90s. He originally wanted the movie to come out in 1999, but halted production because he felt as if technology hadn’t yet caught up to his vision, so he put everything on hold. The Avatar world is beautiful, however completely fiction. The huge trees and bright, blue indigenous people of the world are all computer generated. Currently, 3 more Avatar films are in the works. The first one is scheduled to hit theaters on December 18, 2020.

#3 Planet of the Apes (series)

One of the greatest uses of CGI and special effects in movies comes from the Planet of the Apes series. The original movies spanned between 1968 and 1973, and as you could probably guess the technology was a bit different back then!The reboot of the series came with Rise of the Planet of the Apes in 2011. The budget was just under $100, and it did quite well at the box office. The film received rave reviews for how real the apes looked. The CGI in this film was absolutely awesome. It made over $480M worldwide!

#2 The Dark Knight Rises

One of the most iconic special effects scenes in modern day film happens in the Batman drama The Dark Knight Rises. There was a terrible attack on a football stadium full of on lookers DURING a game, and the visual effects are stunning!When you get a glimpse of all of the manual labor that goes into making scenes like this look amazing, it can be really astonishing! CGI, green screens and other special effects are never more impressive than in this epic Dark Knight scene!

#1 The Matrix

Just about every modern fight scene in film needs to pay homage to one of the pioneers in changing the way we view movies. The Matrix, starring Keanu Reeves, came out 1999, but it’s still regarded as one of the most visually stunning films of all time.The super slow motion, seeing bullets as the fire out of guns, watching Neo stop everything with his mind. . . it was epic! It’s also been the source of inspiration for countless other fight scenes, that have all been used in movies in the 2 decades since The Matrix came out.As you can see, depending on what kind of film you are trying to watch, special effects are extremely important! They allow our imaginations to run wild, and truly visualize what the creator of the content was trying to convey. Without those special effects a lot of what we watch today would simply be, for a lack of a better way to say it, pretty bad tv.
