| | |  Half-Blood Prince one of 7 Academy Awards' Achievement in Visual Effects finalists
It was announced in December that Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was on the long-list for movies being considered as potential nominees for the 82nd annual Academy Awards' Achievement in Visual Effects category. The list has been thus shortened to seven today, and Half-Blood Prince has made the cut yet again.
Fifteen minutes of each of the seven movies being considered - Half-Blood Prince, Avatar, 2012, District 9, Terminator Salvation, Star Trek, and Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen - will be shown to Academy members, who will pick their favourites, thereby narrowing the list down to the final three nominees. The awards will be given out on Sunday, March 7, 2010.
Nominees will be announced Tuesday, February 2, 2010, at 5:30 a.m. PST. We will announce Half-Blood Prince's nomination if the film gets recognised for its achievement in VFX, so stay tuned. | |

OMG!! If Harry Potter is NOT in that top 3 then something is wrong with the world. The special effects in HBP were AMAZING, especially the pensieve scenes with the inky effects! | |

YAY! I'm happy that HBP sorta got nominated! All of these movies have amazing effects. But, I must say that Avatar will probably win it, THE EFFECTS ARE UNBELIEVABLE!

I really hope it makes it to the top 3, but I hate to say it, Avatar is gonna blow HBP out of the water. The visual effects were insanely out-of-this-world, (ha literally  )

Here's to hoping and praying that HBP make the final three and then the win! Quote:
