The possibilities with digital effects are nearly endless but the creativity during the days of mechanical and optical effects is really impressive. All while remembering that film had to be developed first to see the results.

That was the time when it was fun to watch the making of movies. Seeing how they did stunts and special effects. Now it's just actors and green screens.
On the other hand, movies look great now. |
