HBP a semifinalist for a VFX Oscar nomination

Its a good news today, as Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences released their list of 15 movies, which are to be short-listed for Visual Effect Nomination.
Out of these 15, 7 will be short-listed in early January and only 3 will be nominated for Visual Effects Oscar.

HBP is also in the race, as you can read the list here. There is a tough competition, and let us see what this Award season has for Half-Blood Prince.

HBP Soundtrack nominated for Grammy's

After POA, finally another HP film has been nominated for Grammy's.
This time, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince has been nominated for 52nd Annual Grammy Awards, for 'Best Score Soundtrack' category.

It is very cool that Nicholas Hooper has finally got some recognizance for his work. He is really a great composer in my opinion.

Half-Blood Prince is up against The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" (composed by Alexander Desplat), "Milk" (Danny Elfman), "Star Trek" (Michael Giacchino) and "Up" (Giacchino).

The 52nd Annual Grammy Awards will take place on January 31, 2010.

Harry Potter again Oscarless

So, Academy Awards nominations were declared yesterday and guess what? Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix didn't got even a single nomination...
So heartbreaking! Anyway, Order of the Phoenix has joined Chamber of Secrets, which also was nominated for nothing.

Except the Oscars, OOTP has been very unsucessful in other pretigious awards like BAFTA (Nomintated for only two), Golden Globe (nominated for nothing).
Hope.... This Oscar-thing goes away from Harry Potter with Half-Blood Prince.
