A Century’s Worth Of Hollywood Special Effects (Video)
Here’s a pretty cool video we found that takes us through 100 years of motion picture special effects montage style. Light, easy and just as enjoyable for the casual film fan as the cinephile. The ending is a little weak, but the first 80 percent or so more than makes up for that. The song used is “Rods and Cones” from the album “Audio” by Blue Man Group. Here’s the clip (thanks to YouTube user bengraphics for the film list after the clip).
