Yes it won for the Toxic Storm. Outstanding Effects Simulations in a Photoreal Feature
“The winner of that VES prize has gone on to win the Special Effects Oscar 9 out of 14 times. So does that mean that ”Star Wars” will get the gold? No. If there’s a Best Picture nominee in this category, it usually wins.”
February 3, 2016 at 4:43 am #214525In terms of originality I think the Mad Max effects will have more of an impact of voters, so my vote is still Fury Road.
But I will move Revenant in #2.
But Star Wars has an amazing shot at winning the Oscar.
Even the VFX race this year is an unknown. By this time we usualy know who will win (Life of Pi, Gravity …)
Crazy year.

TFA for the win Oscar night, on a night that is already tainted by #OscarsSOWhite and the snubbing of the most popular film of all time (which will break $900 million domestic by this weekend) for fucking Mad Max Fury Road, the most overrated movie of this century.

Awful? 93 Rotten Tomatoes rating. $896,541,631 at the domestic boxoffice alone. Relegated to the Oscars ghetto all sci-fi movies are put (Sound, VFX, etc).
Yeah, TFA was awful, all right.

Dad gum it! Now I might have to predict Flop Wars to win an Oscar now!?
“Flop Wars” I call it “Disney Wars: The Failed Awakening”, personally. You JackO, have just become my favorite person on this entire website! 😉
