Well it looks like my outside guess that Toy Story 3 would make it into this category was as completely unfounded as all my other outside guesses. Maybe I'm just stupid, but I certainly hope not. This visual effects shortlist has been announced, and it includes a few unlikely choices like Shutter Island and Unstoppable. It would be interesting if Shutter Island ends up pulling out a surprise nomination for Best Picture, but it's unlikely at this point. My current guesses at what will be nominated are pretty clear. You can check them out at the Oscar Predictions page, and the semifinalists are listed below. Feel free to weigh in on your opinion, but you won't because nobody ever comments.

from these list, i've seen about half. but i can say that they're all worthy of nominations. i will wait to a smaller list to have a formed opinion of the potential winner...
ReplyDeleteand by the way, i really like what you write and normally i agree with almost everything you say.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ana! It's nice to know that all my work isn't going out to deaf ears.
ReplyDeleteDecent list, though I feel Shutter Island is undeserving and that slot should have gone to either Black Swan or 127 Hours.
ReplyDeleteMy personal top 5 would be Tron, Hereafter, Harry Potter, Alice in Wonderland and Inception.
