SHAG 0 Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 See the Star Wars fanboys out in force again. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/film/4158961.stm My vote goes to Harry and his skelingtons. Top 10 Special Effects: 1 Star Wars - opening (1977) 2 King Kong - climax (1933) 3 The Thing - spider head (1982) 4 Jason and the Argonauts - the skeletons (1963) 5 Terminator 2: Judgment Day - the T-1000 (1991) 6 Forbidden Planet - Krell machinery (1956) 7 The Lord of the Rings trilogy - Gollum (2001-2003) 8 The Matrix - bullet-time (1999) 9 Alien - bursting chest (1979) 10 Spider-Man 2 - train fight (2004) Link to post Share on other sites

joshnii 2 Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 They should be in categies. How can you compare gollum with the skeletons with the chestburster? Link to post Share on other sites
Roger's head 0 Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 The Thing was class. And as said, the dialogue makes the scene. Spiderman 2 - any good? Link to post Share on other sites
nagoid 4 Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 I find lots of modern CGI very cold and uninteresting. Old style effects like Harry did were the best. Link to post Share on other sites
