Most kids can’t contain themselves from asking too many questions. However, their curiosity never bothers to doubt whether cartoon characters are real, and that’s just part of their charm as children. It is as if Bugs Bunny and his gang of loony characters really live, and their existence is accepted as an inviolable fact.
They must wonder how it feels to have Bugs Bunny sitting in the palm of their hands. How lucky Michael Jordan is, to be with them in the movie “Space Jam.” How fun it must be to play basketball with cartoon characters; how soft and velvety they must be!
Iron Man
Robert Downey Jr. must be so fond of his role as Iron Man for having agreed to reprise his character for over a decade. How cool it is that Tony Stark has all the money in the world backed up with the intelligence to come up with all sorts of war machine inventions?
Of course, as enamored as we are with "Iron Man," we know that Robert Downey Jr. doesn’t have to fly across the sky or stand on the edge of a building for the filming of the superhero. Here in this picture, we see proof of the fact that CGI takes care of all of that.
Guardians of the Galaxy
It was difficult at first for the casting directors to find someone who could effectively voice Rocket, the cybernetically modified raccoon. They hired Bradley Cooper for the job, and he was able to keep up with the character’s fast-talking, while Sean Gunn acts out the physical part of the role for him.
Rocket is a funny character that can quickly turn into a mean fighting machine. But what’s really funny is that, behind the scenes, Gunn had to pose subserviently on set like a domesticated pet, low on the floor. What were serious scenes on the silver screen must have been comic to witness in front of the cameras with Gunn all in green and being patted like a puppy.
Passengers
It's the classic filmmaker's conundrum. How do you make a film that's set on a massive spaceship? Well, you use a ton of green screen! Let's be real here - "Passengers" is not going to be considered the best film in anyone's books. Even with Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence as the leads, the film just fails to be a compelling Sci-fi movie.
If you ask us, this film is more creepy than cute. Especially since all the CGI work really made us feel like we were also passengers on the doomed intergalactic vessel. Yeah, we're still waiting for the next great Sci-fi epic - and this isn't it.
The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey
What a wonderful peek behind the scenes from "The Hobbit," this one features the enchanting Galadriel (played by Cate Blanchett). While this A-list actor is undoubtedly real, what's not is the stunning mountain scenery we see in the background. And yet, she remained utterly convincing throughout the take.
To his credit, Peter Jackson does build a lot of the sets himself, and even with the use of a green screen, this man is undoubtedly one of the greatest artists of our time. And it's also important to mention that each Middle Earth movie he made got more CGI-heavy. So if you compare the "The Fellowship of the Ring" to "The Battle of the Five Armies," they feel like very different movies.
