You probably already know that many movies use visual effects to enhance (or sometimes ruin) our cinematic experience, but you probably didn't realize just how often - and to what extent - such effects are used in the modern-day film industry.
Sure we know that the tiger in Life of Pi wasn't real (we all know that, right?). Nor was most of what we saw in The Avengers. Oh, and Alice in Wonderland. That wasn't real either. Sorry. But you might be surprised to learn that other movies have also been digitally manipulated, and in ways that you might not expect. Take a look at the revealing before-and-after pictures we've compiled for you below to see what we mean. You'll never look at movies in the same way again.

300

This isn't 300. This screenshot is from 300:Rise of an Empire. You shouldn't confuse the two movies. The first movie was cool, clings more to the book, has more sense, and the guys are so f*ckeable. The latter one is just sad, doesn't even compare to 300's level (despite Eva Green's tit show, it's a meh-- movie)

so update today i couldnt find a toilet so i instead i pooped in my cats litter box
It's incredible how visual effects can transform a film into an otherworldly experience, making the impossible come to life right before our eyes. This magic of movies can sometimes reveal unexpected connections between beloved narratives, like the uncanny resemblance of two seemingly different worlds. In fact, it's interesting to see how one thread even likens characters and scenes from a popular fantasy drama to a well-known animated adventure.
These surprising parallels can change how we perceive our favorite shows and movies.

Amazing. It's unbelievable to think about the immense talent these actors have to make the "scene" believable regardless of it not truly being there. Technology and the movie industry is amazing! ~AM
