We’ve accomplished a lot in the past 100 years of film. Not only have we gone from simple 16 fps black and white movies to colorful high def, but the quality of the special effects have also changed dramatically.

This tribute video highlights some of the most ground-breaking movie scenes, however, I couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed by the end. 2001: A Space Odyssey, Titanic, The Matrix and 300 are all movies that define Hollywood today yet they weren’t included.
