The Spartans looked absolutely epic pushing their enemies off a cliff, until you realize ninety-nine percent of that movie was CGI.

The mystique of one of the most terrifying villains action fans have ever seen is a little less intimidating when you see it's a dude in a suit that has the worst time trying to take a bathroom break.

5. Thor

The world of Asgaard definitely looks like a realm The God of Thunder would call home until you see it's one giant green screen.

Even though it would've looked super cool if they did those flames for real, no one can set Marty McFly on fire!

12. Avatar

It must have taken a lot of guts for Zoe Saldana to wear a goofy looking helmet and some face paint and act her way into making her character in the movie have real feelings.

It's incredible to think Robert Rodriguez used his imagination to create Sin City on screen with next to NOTHING on set.

Even superheroes need a coffee break. Take a look into the method behind the madness on the first Batman movie. Jack Nicholson even looks human for a minute, despite all that Joker makeup.
