MemberOvomorphJan-11-2013 12:24 AMThe movie has neen nominated for Best Visual FX. It is a long shot between the academys love of Peter Jackson and The Avengers as well as the corrupt system of the Oscars where votes can be obtained via elaborate gifts and ad campaugns. That being said, it is still great to see that all of their hard work was appreciated and noticed.

MemberOvomorphJan-11-2013 5:48 AM Glad you found this out. Mainstream movie/Oscar news seems to to ignore our movie.
That could be good or bad. But at least our movie is not forgotten, yet.

MemberOvomorphJan-11-2013 6:17 AMThe effects in Prometheus are stunning in particular for their subtlety, something certainly not on view in Avengers, an often clumsy film that doesn't break any ground that hasn't already been trampled by Michael Bay, insofar as I can tell. Along with effects I'd think Arthur Max and Michael Fasbender would or should get nods too at the very least!

MemberOvomorphJan-11-2013 6:34 AMWith all the love for Prometheus I have as a whole, I'm going to chime in and say- Life of Pi is the most ferociously beautiful film I have ever seen. If that thing sweeps all the visual categories, yeah, the universe has some justice.
The whole point of this is lost if you keep it a secret.

MemberOvomorphJan-11-2013 7:45 AMMaybe this site should have it's own 'show' and select Prometheus related winners in many categories.
This has been sort of done with the 'Name your favorite scene' type threads
New examples might be..
Best Use of Goo
Best Engineer
Best 'Fire' Scene
Best Comedian
Best Hair
That kind of stuff

MemberOvomorphJan-11-2013 12:54 PMWell it certainly deserves best visual effects but if it doesn't win, the corrupt oscar system being what it is, it wouldn't really bother me but still it would be nice.
