Haha! Looking at that list and choosing which were the best 7 out of what I've seen is HARD! But HP is definitely on that list |

I agree that it deserves fan award AND the workers gets to deserve to get reconized for the hard work they put in the last movie!
However, i wish the oscars would at least reconize Rupert Grint and Emma Watson for their outstanding job in their supporting roles. Daniel Radcliffe does deserve one for leading role. I honestly believe that Rupert and Emma rocked this film than any other HP films! I hope that the Oscars arent finished choosing the list and its still ongoing and the trios still have a chance. I mean, come on!! They have been with HP for 10 years working their butt off, the oscars should take some kind of reconization into that!!
Someone wrote an article which i strongly support about the way Oscara works and their opinion on fanasty films especially with Harry Potter films. I suggest you read this article! I got this off from other HP site. Critic's Notebook: Can 'Harry Potter' ever capture Oscar magic? - theenvelope.latimes.com |

I think it's great, and I hope that it will go all the way because they deserve it, I know it's not their first oscar nomination (they were among others nominetaed for best cinematography for HBP) but I would love it if they won now that it's all coming to an end.

This movie wasn't really that huge on visual effects. That's just not what its goal was. I doubt it will make the short-list.

Just my opinion, but they should've been nominated way back for COS, because the visual effects for Dobby were AWESOME!!
