The fifteen finalists for this year's five slots for Best Visual Effects are:
Alice in Wonderland
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader
Clash of the Titans
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1
Hereafter
Inception
Iron Man 2
The Last Airbender
Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
Scott Pilgrim vs the World
Shutter Island
The Sorcerer’s Apprentice
TRON Legacy
Unstoppable
Happy to see Scott Pilgrim vs the World survive here. With any luck it'll squeak in over Alice in Wonderland, which most people are assuming will be one of the five nominees. I'm less pleased that no animated films made it through, especially when titles like Tangled and especially Legend of the Guardians featured such strong effects animation.
