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.

How could she keep a straight face while looking at this green blob?
Makes you appreciate the art and skill of actors when they perform convincingly with such substitutes.
Guardians Of The Galaxy
I feel bad for the actor (Sorry I don't know his name >.<) in the green thing....he must be thinking about how weird it is to be petted by a giant muscle dude.....I mean come on, look at his face! XD
It's Sean Gunn, brother of the director, he also has a non cgi role in the fil,.

I love Bill Nighy! Wonderful actor. When he made that lip popping sound in that scene, I laughed like a crazy person. Hilarious. :-)
Get a grip. It's called a progress. Years ago they had to rely on fake looking makeup and people like you constantly bitched about it. Now we have realistic CGI - and people like you b***h about it. What a joke.

all those grand adventures as a kid paid off in this scene. i wonder how the cgi compares to what she is imagining
Twilight Saga: Eclipse
Haha XD I wonder how it feels .......... I bet it feels weird
Boardwalk Empire
The Hobbit
And the only thing that stands out to me is the extra hair they added over Bilbo's ear.
You can't see the GIGANTIC castle-thingy in the background?
Load More Replies...It's soooo sad to see so much green screen used. I had no idea it was to that extent. No one makes anything without a computer anymore.
The Great Gatsby
It's definitely from the Great Gatsby. See more here https://vimeo.com/68451324
Have both those movies and this not a scene from King Kong it is from the great gatsby
It doesn't say it's king kong read the title, it says The Great Gatsby

Notice all these holes at the middle of the green stuff. They are the cameras they used for the special effect when time freezes and the viewpoint moves arround them. LOL! At least THAT wasn't photoshopped as it would have been nowadays :)
X-Men: Days Of Future Past
The Hobbit
Do they make the actors look prettier too? If they do, what app is it? I need it....
Game Of Thrones
And the title of the article says 20+ movie scenes. And the text uses movies and not tv.
it says "before-and-after-visual-effects-movies-tv" <---- see TV at the end
Quit nitpicking. It's like a movie, just cut into episodes, and it uses CGI. Deal with it.

Well sure why have a real audience with gobs of people when a CG one will do. Makes sense really.

Life Of Pi
The Wolf Of Wall Street
Was probably much cheaper to film in a studio. But the use of CGI is getting pretty over abundant.
Load More Replies...its to make the "walk" to the boaot longer. the boat is still used in the scene, its just masked out in the begining for the illusion of it being farther away.

The Lord Of The Rings
I wouldn't say he's underrated, he's the go-to-guy for all things motion caption. He also has his own studio in London with all the latest technology and gadgets for motion caption. He's definitely known as a specialist in his field, maybe not by as many fans as he deserves ;) He's awesome though!

I really liked this movie! Too bad they didn't make the sequal :/ But I'll just keep my hopes up ~
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)
Elysium
Paranoia
You are filming in LA. It isn't that easy to send a cast, crew, equipment to Philadelphia while getting all the permits and paying all the taxes for 1 scene. CGI is far faster and cheaper.

Load More Replies...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.
hi guys i'm back! I went back to this website and instead of farting i took a dump on my moms bed. Can someone help me convince her it was the dog not me? Thanks uwu.
I accidentally farted at school but i just realized that i pooped too and now its sliding down my my leg and oop- IT JUST FELL ON THE FLOOR AND IT SMELL AND EVERYONE IS ASKING WHO FARTED WHAT SO I DO ......
Load More Replies...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
These scenes will never make same effects on someone who didn't know about visual effects a lot. I see amazing works and efforts. Great!
Acting is just not the same anymore. Years ago, of course quality was worse, but still the actors visited real places or had actual requisites. not just green screens all around them.. no wonder ian mckellen had to cry once
You should see some of the "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" filming pics! The actor (Captain America) is standing in front of a green screen waving his shield or whatever, while in the movie, NYC is exploding!
