Hollywood has come a long way thanks to advancements in technology
like CGI and green screens. Movies and TV shows just couldn’t capture
our imaginations the same way without these special effects. Turning on a film with incredible effects can transport us to a
different place, but doesn’t it make you wonder what it looked like
actually filming these scenes? We always knew The Hulk must rely on CGI
and green screens, but it’s another thing to see it with your own eyes.
Check out these behind-the-scenes photos of Hollywood hard at work, and
laugh at how ridiculous the actors look.
Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix
I’m sorry, but I refuse to believe this photo is real. I was under
the impression that the wizarding world of Harry Potter was a real
place, and that I just wasn’t invited because my letter to Hogwarts got
lost when Voldemort destroyed the Ministry of Magic’s records.

These green screen hands must actually be magical creatures that live in the library.
Game Of Thrones
I’m not going to lie, I expected something a little more intimidating
to be a dragon. I understand they just CGI the green stick out, but
dragons are huge, terrifying beasts.
@BehindScenesPic/Twitter
Wrapping
some fabric around a stick and calling it a day really feels the
production team wasn’t even trying to make Emilia Clarke’s job easy.
Beauty And The Beast
If you ever doubted Emma Watson’s acting abilities, then this photo
will prove you wrong. Dan Stevens is actually walking around in a padded
suit with stilts and Watson didn’t crack a smile once. She even had to
dance with him in this suit.
@BehindScenesPic/Twitter
Honestly, her ability to actually take Stevens seriously in this get-up is worth an Oscar nomination.
Life Of Pi
In reality, none of us ever actually believed the tiger in Life of Pi was real, but it’s still a little disheartening to see the proof.
@Soma_stance/Twitter
Despite
the CGI and special effects, it’s cool to see that the directors had
Suraj Sharma actually acting and floating on water.
Space Jam
Come on and slam! And welcome to the greatest disappointment of your
childhood! I know it’s unrealistic to think Michael Jordan was actually
acting with cartoon characters, but when you’re a kid, the sky is the
limit with your imagination.
@BackyardCinemas/Twitter
This does prove that MJ is the most underrated actor of a generation.
Titanic
I feel like there were a lot of scenes in Titanic that
required green screen more than this. In this scene, all you had to do
was get a smaller boat and reenact the scene. It didn’t have to be a
huge ocean liner.

First, Rose says there isn’t room on the door, and now this.
The Avengers
Mark Ruffalo’s portrayal of Bruce Banner in The Avengers franchise has been incredible, but it’s important to remember that he’s also the man behind the CGI Hulk too.
Amanda Cressman/Pinterest
When
Banner transformer, so did Ruffalo. One quick outfit change into a
CGI-suit and he was ready to take on Chris Hemsworth like it was
nobody’s business.
Mad Max: Fury Road
Mad Max: Fury Road was touted by many to be one of the best
films of the decade, and its special effects played a big part in that.
The cars might be authentic, but the flips, explosions, and dystopian
desert are very fake.
vervainboy/Reddit
Green screen or not, its action scenes are miles ahead of the original Mad Max.
Game Of Thrones
If there are two things in the Game of Thrones series that
absolutely require a green screen, it’s the dragons and the wall. Thanks
to HBO’s big budget, we got to watch Jon and the Wildlings climb the
wall in season three.
@BehindScenesPic/Twitter
It looks like they actually used a vertical wall for the scene, but the ground was probably only 30, not 300, feet below.
Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest
Bill Nighy did an amazing job portraying ghost captain Davy Jones in Pirates of theCaribbean: Dead Man’s Chest, but we didn’t expect the character to be so animated (literally).
@BehindScenesPic/Twitter
I was thinking there’d be some prosthetics or even a wig, but this photo shows that it was 100% CGI.
I Am Legend
This is the most gut-wrenching scene in all of I Am Legend.
When Robert is attacked by the mutant dog, his dog protects him but
becomes infected too. We all cried, and it’s something that still hurts.
@BehindScenesPic/Twitter
Seeing this awkward man in a green morph suit as the demon dog actually makes me feel a little better about the entire thing.
The Matrix
This is just further proof that basically the entire film of The Matrix
was done on a green screen soundstage. This is also a great
behind-the-scenes look at how they managed to pull off the scene where
they lean back in slow motion to dodge the bullets.
@thegtd_/Twitter
This right here is the magic of Hollywood.
Guardians Of The Galaxy
I’m sorry, but Bradley Cooper is credited for playing Rocket in Guardians of the Galaxy, and I’m a little disappointed that I’m not seeing him in that green morph suit.
cloud9comics/Imgur
Instead,
we see effects actor Sean Gunn in the suit. He had to pose low to the
ground for extended periods of time to pull off the role.
Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince
Of course, it wouldn’t be a true behind the scenes look at Hollywood
without featuring a flying scene. It must have been fun for Daniel
Radcliffe to pretend to swipe and glide through the air.
@BehindScenesPic/Twitter
I imagine it was similar to riding one of those coin-operated rides outside of a grocery store, but with more wind machines.
The Avengers
Mark Ruffalo is at it again and doing better than ever. Chris
Hemsworth and Chris Evans had it easy in their boring superhero
costumes.
@stverogrrs/Twiter
Mark
had to switch between being an awkward, shy scientist to being an
8-foot tall, 1,400 pound monster without a shirt on. Give him the
applause he deserves.
The Dark Knight
Harvey Dent might be in the middle of his identity crisis, but Aaron
Eckhart is locked in and perfect in his acting. Even though the CGI
indicators would do all the work for Eckhart, he still managed to make
half his face more menacing than the other.
@BehindScenesPic/Twitter
Slap some prosthetics on and he wouldn’t have even needed special effects.
Gravity
Any movie based in outer space is bound to have some green screen and
CGI action happening, but this proves just how far they went in the
film Gravity.
@Soma_stance/Twitter
Sandra
Bullock doesn’t have anything close to the actual equipment in the
movie studio, yet it all comes together thanks to CGI.
The Matrix
Considering the fact that half of The Matrix‘s plot revolves
around Neo being inside The Matrix, a lot of CGI had to be involved.
This scene was set in a warehouse and they still used an entire green
screen background.
@BehindScenesPic/Twitter
That tells me Keanu Reeves basically acted out this entire movie in his own imagination, which is pretty darn impressive.
Boardwalk Empire
This shot from Boardwalk Empire proves how a few strips of green screen can transform an entire scene.
@Soma_stance/Twitter
If
a film wanted to pull off a scene like this decades ago, they would
have needed to film by a body of water and omit the dated ocean liners.
The Avengers
Marvel is a powerhouse in the film industry so it’s really no
surprise they excel at green screen work. These films are littered with
explosions and action scenes.
@Soma_stance/Twitter
They
probably wouldn’t have even been possible a few decades ago. Well, they
might have been possible but they’d be using real explosions which
would be a lot more unsafe.
X-Men
Wolverine is the mutant that can regenerate himself after any type of
damage is dealt to him. No matter if its a gunshot to the head or a
knife to the gut, he always comes back and angrier than ever. Little
kids probably wonder how on Earth he does it.
@Soma_stance/Twitter
Here, in a scene from X-Men: Days of Future Past,
cast members are setting up Hugh Jackman for success. When the snakes
crawl through him, it looks like they are only attached on the outer
surface.
Godzilla
Yeah, like there’s really giant lizards laying dormant somewhere
overseas waiting to attack. If that were the case, the world would be
doomed as we know it. A nuke might be able to stop it, but even then,
that’s dangerous to the civilians.
It
looks like all they did here was place a giant green screen in front of
the real actors. That way, they can slip in Godzilla through some very
nice CGI effects.
Infinity War
The most relentless villain of them all in the Marvel Cinematic
Universe has to be Thanos. He made his full-length film appearance in
early 2018 in Avengers: Infinity Wargunshotand he did not disappoint. How did they transform the actor?
It
looks like they just took his facial scans and matched it with the CGI.
Meaning, whatever Josh Brolin did for the computer, Thanos would be
able to do on the big screen for all the fans.
Kill Bill
It would be pretty amazing if Uma Thurman could actually do most of
the stuff she pulled off in Kill Bill. Not many in the world, are
capable of the stunts she did. Of course, she needed a little help.
To
give her the balance, they attached a bunch of wires to her so that if
she were to fall of this poor victims back, they would secure her safely
to the ground. When is part three coming out?
Infinity War
Some people wonder how in the world the buildings that often get
destroyed look so realistic. It’s literally like they go to these cities
and ask the mayor if they have any old buildings they can use for their
movies.
@Soma_stance/Twitter
In
Infinity War, there was a ton of destruction. In this scene as Tony
Stark prepares for battle, there was only a little damage done so far.
Instead of a green screen, they just covered the buildings and made them
blue for editing later on.
Rise of the Planet of the Apes
As much as we would like to believe that Ceasar is real or that
monkeys could lead a revolution, that just isn’t the case. Although it
is interesting to try and figure out how they brought the strong lead
character to life.
It
looks like the filmmakers took a similar route to that of Thanos from
the Marvel movies. Throw something on his head and let the CGI do the
rest of the work. Not too bad.
300
First of all, this film takes place in the past, so it has to be
fake. The time period and the places that many of the scenes took place
don’t exist anymore and they had to make up for that.
Here
he is escaping a chopper that would have probably ended his life if
this were real. We have heard he does some of his own stunts.
Tron
Tron: Legacy is filled with special effects. If there were a
world like that depicted in the movie that we could actually go to, you
can bet everyone would go all the time.
With so many cool lights and themes, they had to use a heavy dosage of different color screens to pull this movie off.
The Wolverine
We get it, Hugh Jackman is the perfect Wolverine and fans are sad
that he has exited their lives from playing the role. He grew on us so
much that many think he could really take a beating.
It
looks like he’s just holding a stuffed animal with a drawn on face.
That is very scary at all and it is as sweet as the tiger looks.
Narnia
Narnia is a beautiful book that sparks the imagination so it is only
right that the movie produced the same type of stuff. Unfortunately,
Narnia doesn’t exist!
However,
the filmmakers did do a swell job at reproducing what would be Narnia
on the big screen. It looks like a place many would love to travel to.
300
This beautiful scene from 300 captures the essence of what it
was like to be in charge during that time period. Large statues at your
bedside and a bed fit for a king.
Yes, you can still probably find large animal statues but to have them in your “palace” is a long shot.
Iron Man
Maybe one day soon, experts will develop a technology that will
enable someone to have a real life Iron Man type suit. Until that day
comes, we’re stuck with movies of him.
Robert
Downey Jr. must love playing this role as he’s done so for over a
decade. He might be coming up with a way to make the suit real when no
one’s paying attention.
Wolf of Wall Street
It looks like they didn’t have the budget to take the actors to this
actual location. And who would have thought that such a simple scene
would need a green screen?
Perhaps, it was easier and quicker for the studios to just mock this up instead of flying them out there.
Superman
Don’t we all wish we could fly at the speed of sound. It would make
going through all of that airport security obsolete. Luckily for Clark
Kent, he isn’t of this world.
These
actors don’t get paid enough to pretend like they’re doing something
they’re really not. It is really an art form if you ask us.
Walking Dead
One of TV’s most popular shows for sure has some green screen
effects. Zombies aren’t real and we hope it always stays that way.
However, there aren’t many desolate cities for filming available.
That’s why they had to do this scene this way. It was probably filmed in the back lot.
Iron Man
Overtime, Marvel Studios found better ways to capture how they would
like Iron Man to look on screen. By the time they introduced War
Machine, they pretty much had it down.

by Dan Edmund Even if you don’t like basketball, it’s very possible you have heard of a man named Yao Ming. He is a Chinese born professional basketball player who played for the Houston Rockets. While that may not sound all that impressive, the thing that really sets him apart is the fact that he is 7 feet 6 inches tall! That’s not a typo. He is really that tall! The great thing is that when Yao Ming is out on the basketball court, he is surrounded by other really tall basketball players. Granted they aren’t as tall as him, but they come within at least a foot of his height. When he’s out and about in the real world though, that’s when you notice a big difference. Here are 46 pictures that show Yao Ming making everyone around him look as small as an ant! 1. 2. Yao Ming and a baby elephant. 3. Yao Ming next to his trainer, kneeling. Look at the height difference. 4. Yao Ming and Luther Head. Luther Head is 6 feet 3 inches tall. 5. 6....
