Den of Geek has amassed a list that is candy for a child for truly hard-core, movie-effects' fans. The list covers not the momentous events of special effects, but more the tools behind them. It's a great list for those who enjoy the making of documentaries on a dvd or the break down of any gadget and why it works. As with any list their will be some scoffs at what did not make the list, (he goes into explanation on why Bullet Time in the first Matrix was exempted, which his excuse I scoff at myself.). My personal favorite being the process of filming a mass of seagulls for Hitchcock's The Birds, explaining in depth of the the type of camera used and how rare it was. Enthusiasts won't be dissapointed at how in-depth the list goes unless you're the type to get upset at how the magician did their tricks. Enjoy.
