The Dock in The Wolf of Wall Street
Whoa, we cannot believe what we are seeing in this photo! Who would have thought that there was actually no water there when they shot this scene? The dock was only a product of the imagination.

The Fire Portal in Doctor Strange
You do not need to be a rocket scientist to figure out they made the fire portal using special effects.
For this shot, the filmmakers decided to be practical about it. They had to digitize the scene behind the fire portal, so this is how they decided to go about it! How seamless is this? Good job, you guys.
