I find it interesting they got a hair and make-up nod I mean LV's nose is computer generated. I guess Hagrid and Dumbledore's beards and hair are fake. As well as other characters. Maybe the HP films will get acknowledged in the Oscars after DH comes out Lord of the Rings did not win big until the last one came out.

Cool.
I hope it makes it to all the categories and I hope it wins.
It was such a great film.
And I hope Sweeney Todd wins some BAFTA's as well.
It was so good.
I highly recommend it.

OotP might not scrape through the next round in any of these departments save the last one, production design. To be frank, I have been disappointed by the last three movies' special effects and costumes. They were so worth-believing in the first two movies. Like it was an entirely different world, but now the gap between the real world and that world is closing in.
