After watching the crazy amount of special features from the new set due out next week, I'm convinced more than ever that this film needs to win for special effects. What they achieved in this film and how incredibly real it all looks is simply amazing. While I was already incredibly impressed with what they achieved prior to watching the special features, I am tenfold more impressed after watching all of the work that goes into this process. Stellar stuff. They deserve to win ... hands down ... especially with what they did to Chicago in this film.

It deserves to win for visual effects, certainly. Unfortunately, Planet of the Apes is gonna take it most likely. It also deserves sound awards...all three do.

I didn't even think ROTF got nominated for visual. Which was total BS, if you ask me.

I thought the effects were terrible in RotF. You could clearly see the white line around everything CGI. That's a sign of poorly done effects. Plus, everything was so fast, I was hard to tell what was going on.

It probably didn't even get looked at because of what a bad movie it was.

Anyone else watching Hollywood's Super Bowl? Here's hoping Transformers Dark of the Moon wins something. It definitely deserves Visual Effects.
