We have our contenders everyone! The Visual Effects category is one of the few Oscar categories that whittles down the contenders to a bake-off list. The list of ten finalists is as follows:
"Captain America: The Winter Soldier"
"Dawn of the Planet of the Apes"
"Guardians of the Galaxy"
"Godzilla"
"The Hobbit: Battle of the Five Armies"
"Interstellar"
"Maleficent"
"Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb"
"Transformers: Age of Extinction"
"X-Men: Days of Future Past"
All of my top ten guesses for Visual Effects contenders are featured in the bake off list save ridley Scott's biblical epic "Exodus: Gods and Kings". In its place is... "Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb"? I'm genuinely puzzled as to how this film pushed past every other movie I listed (I didn't even have this sequel in my top 20). But hey, nine out of ten ain't bad!
Your five Visual Effects nominees will come from these movies. The teams from all ten will now get to work creating a demo real showcasing the best VFX work from the film for the effects branch of the Academy to screen and vote on. Do you agree with the finalists?
