I enjoy watching the DVD/BluRay bonus features on how films were made in the 1980s and before. Lots of interesting stuff.

Starting in the late 1990s and then progressively advancing until it is everything, all the special effects videos amount to "and then we used a computer." I mean, still a few interesting bits about how they got it into a computer (motion capture, etc), but it tends to homogenize.

Technically there would still be stuff I'd find interesting, but it goes beyond what DVD features will have.

Lord of the Rings had some good effects stuff in the making-of. And Fury Road. Last cool one I remember before LOTR was Independence Day. So many are just “a computer did it, exactly the same way as in every other movie” now.
