Best of 2016: The Year's Greatest Special Effects


Annually for Popular Mechanics' print edition, I have the pleasure of looking back at the year's most impressive movie effects and talking to the people who made them happen. Right around the Oscars, the feature shows up on the website. So here it is, featuring Jason Bourne, The Jungle Book, Sully, Passengers and even Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk. And if you go here, you'll see a little bonus cut, if you will, of my conversation with the Arrival team as we geek out about James Turrell.
