What better way to properly prepare for the 88th Academy Awards than to reflect on past winners.
This supercut strings together every 'Best Visual Effects' winner -- from 1927/1928's Wings to 2014's Interstellar -- to show us what magnificent strides the movie industry has made over the decades.
Look back on some of your favorite cinematic explosions, animals, journeys through space, and superheroes as you await to see which of this year's nominees will take home the award.
