Visual effects company Industrial Light & Magic have been creating amazing characters for four decades now, and the latest issue of Wired Magazine takes a closer look at their amazing legacy. Lots of interesting quotes from those who have worked with ILM can be found by clicking the link below, but Cary Phillips, Research and Development Supervisor for ILM, talks here about the biggest challenges they've taken on. "There were three times in my 20 years here that I’ve almost soiled myself looking at a challenge we were going to take on. The first was the concept art for Star Wars: Episode I. The second time was Davy Jones in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest. The third time I almost soiled myself was seeing the concept art for the film we’re working on now, Warcraft; it’s the most amazing work we’ve done in the 20 years I’ve been here."

I'm very curious: what makes something look "real"? What are these characters missing to fit with the real life guys, despite being so detailed? Why is it so easy to tell apart a real Iron Man suit from this one?

Shame they chose a shitty looking IM suit

Say what you want about Bay (hey, I agree!), but the CGI in the Transformers movies are pretty spectacular.

Michael Bay doesn't belong there. The Transformers movies are garbage.
