| | Deathly Hallows: Part I short-listed for 2010 Academy Awards in Visual Effects
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences revealed its seven finalists to possibly receive nominations in the Achievement in Visual Effects category for this year's Academy Awards, and amongst them was Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I. The full list of the 'Bake-off', cut down from the original 15 semifinalists announced last month, is below. Quote:
• "Alice in Wonderland"
• "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1"
• "Hereafter"
• "Inception"
• "Iron Man 2"
• "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World"
• "Tron: LEGACY" The list will be shortened to the five actual nominees in the Visual Effects category at the Oscars, which will be given out on Sunday, February 27, 2011, at the Kodak Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Center. The nominees for the 83rd Academy Awards will be announced on Tuesday, January 25, 2011. We will have more information regarding possible nominations for Deathly Hallows: Part I and its stars that morning.
Additionally, production designer Stuart Craig was nominated for a 2010 Art Directors Guild award in the fantasy film category for his work on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I. Those awards will be given out on February 5, 2011 at a black-tie ceremony in Beverly Hills, Calif.
Congratulations to all those nominated and short-listed for awards this season! Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I has now been released worldwide.

Very cool! I hope Deathly Hallows get some type of Academy Award recognition in any area because I thought the movie was very cool. The best one since PoA.

Oh! I don't care if HP wins an Oscar, I just hope it gets NOMINATED. It's been a while since PoA was nominated for a few categories. And also it's against some tough competition; Inception was pretty good.

i'm pretty sure Alice, TRON and Iron Man will make it in the top 5.
that means DH has two spots to struggle with against the others.

DH deserves at least a nomination and after the release of part 2 it MUST win at least one oscar. That would be a recognition of the entire franchise. GO HP!

It would certainly get my vote. Loved the whole movie, esp the Dance scene bewteen Harry and Hermoine and the funniest-- the 7 Potters. If there's any fairness in the voting, Harry Potter will win!

While the script adaptation, in my opinion, was only marginally better than the prior two, the technical questions, such as visual effects, certainly are superb!
