Ten films have qualified for the Academy Award for visual effects, and the five nominees will come from this list:
- Captain America: The Winter Soldier
- Dawn of the Planet of the Apes
- Godzilla
- Guardians of the Galaxy
- The Hobbit: The 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
Well, Maleficent's inclusion on this list makes me want to vomit. Fingers crossed it won't actually get into the nominees, but couldn't they have snubbed it like they did Man of Steel last year? I think the five will be Dawn of the Apes, Godzilla, The Hobbit, Interstellar, and maybe Guardians? Transformers has also been nodded before. Honestly, I'll take anything as long as Maleficent doesn't get included- and it's not because I hate the movie, the visual effects were genuinely atrocious.
