Film technology is always changing and improving, therefore movies that are now acclaimed for the best utilization of special effects will likely lose this pull in the near future. Below is a list of movies that currently represent the cream of the crop in special effects.
- Avatar (2009), for it's ground-breaking techniques that took over a decade to enforce. Directed by James Cameron, the movie revolutionized 3D technology and is arguably the most acclaimed and celebrated film in 3D history.
- The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008) takes the cake in the competition for the best human transformation. The film used contour, an innovative facial performance capturing system, to show actor Brad Pitt as Benjamin Button at different life stages.
- King Kong (2005) gets its props for creating one of the most realistic beasts of all time. The giant ape never won any awards for best supporting actor, but his ability to convey emotions in such a humanistic way while not being able to speak was exemplary to say the least.
- WALL-E (2008) is another movie that receives praise for its potrayal of humanistic tendencies in a mute character. The film's robot is unable to speak, but due to improvements made in the field of animation, he was able to capture the hearts of children nationwide.
- The Transformers Series gets credit for the scores of game changing robots included in its films. Sorry WALL-E, but the robotic characters in Transformers were so complex that it will take ground-breaking technology to upstage the accomplishments of this series.
- The Lord of the Rings Series drew a cult-like following by enveloping readers in the intricacies of another world. Each movie continued to shock audiences with majestic scenes at every corner, an admirable achievement considering the runtime of the films was always well above average.
Past titans of special effects include the Star Wars series, the Matrix trilogy, and, of course, Titanic.
