Visual Effects Society (VES) Nominees

Harry Potter is most likely the clear winner, and The Tree of Life is a big dud, at least with the VES that is. Interesting that Pirates got the big nomination, but no ancillary nods. I think Transformers, Rise and HP72 are in, with the last two slots between Hugo, Captain America, and Pirates.
