This brilliant video edited by Nelson Carvajal shows just how much visual effects have changed throughout movie history. The video starts with 1977's Star Wars and ends with this year's nominees for 'Best Visual Effects". Although, until 1995 the Academy Awards occasionally fell back to its old umbrella of "Special Achievement Academy Award".
I felt that this video shows just how far we have come. With visual graphics, you see what someone is capable of when it comes to creating a story or a new world.
