100 Years of Special Effects


YouTube user bengraphics created this montage of film clips from the past 100 years, demonstrating the evolution of cinematic special effects. It was originally just intended for a class lecture, but has gone viral. Featured films include The Enchanted Drawing (1900) Thief of Baghdad (1940) and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008). Run time: 5 minutes.

  1. Oh, wow. 100 years??! it's amazing that a lot of these today's kids might not even classify as "special effects because they're pretty obvious! I wonder what the future will bring??
