A leading newspaper here in the Philippines printed a picture of the Oscar winners for the Best in Visual Effects yeasterday.To my suprise,that picture was even bigger than those of the winners in the acting categories:) Personally, I have mistaken some of the visual effects in this movie for real. There was quality effects shot in pretty much every frame. Congrats!!!!! my son loves this movie! February 27, 2008 9:56 am | link Leave a comment |
