OWF AWARDS 2007: Best Visual Effects
A combination of the writers strike and the always drawn out New Year period has meant for several slow news days recently, so for that reason… and maybe for the reason that it might bring up a new interesting poll… I’m going to post some news that I neglected from my updates on Friday.
News has leaked of the seven movies up for the visual effects Oscar which this Wednesday will be showcased to a panel of Academy judges in 15 minute effects filled segments (per film), which will then be brought down to just three movies over the course of the following days.
On Tuesday 22nd January, the three chosen along with all the other Academy Award nominations will be announced to the world media.
So today’s debate and poll is pretty simple. Which film of 2007 had the best visual effects?
Personally I think THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM, 300 and PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: AT WORLD’S END should be the one’s voted for this category with 300 easily winning the award next up. I’m actually quite surprised SPIDER-MAN wasn’t up for the award over EVAN ALMIGHTY but well, I haven’t seen the latter film so who I am to judge?
Get voting…

I think Transformers had the *best* special effects (although it was a crappy-ass movie) but 300 made much better use of the technology.

Hi all. May be 300 really has better use of technology, but i think Transformers are better and cooler. It looks much more natural comparing with 300. Visual Effects never been so real. I even think this is the most seismic event of 2007.
