Um, That’s Not a Train
Sometimes, the budget doesn’t call for the actual transportation that is being depicted in the movie. However, without behind-the-scenes photos, you’d never know it. In the photo below, you can clearly see that the crew made a platform that could travel on the rails. It’s either there to show a close-up of someone peering out the window or to get a look at the world moving by. Either way, it looks pretty neat.

Are You Sure Dinosaurs Aren’t Real?
Everyone knows about Jurassic Park. It’s a cult-classic that features a Tyrannosaurus Rex, among other terrifying dinosaurs. There are endless behind-the-scenes looks at these animatronic monsters, but this one is quite stunning. You might think the scene shown below is CGI-generated, but it isn’t. Someone took the time to create a life-size T-Rex that could move. It’s on-set, and it probably gave the crew and actors a bit of a scare with its sheer size.
