7 Films Remain In Visual Effects Oscar Category

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has narrowed the films for the Visual Effects category for the 83rd Academy Awards down to seven movies.

Below is the list in alphabetical order:               
Alice in Wonderland
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1
Hereafter
Inception
Iron Man 2
Scott Pilgrim vs the World
Tron: Legacy
In my opinion, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Pt 1,  Tron: Legacy, Inception and Scott Pilgrim are worthy of a nomination. I am willing to bet that it will either be Tron: Legacy or Inception taking home Oscar gold. 
Which film do you want to see win for visual effects this year?
From the official Press Release:
All members of the Visual Effects Branch will be invited to view 15-minute excerpts from each of the seven shortlisted films on Thursday, January 20.  Following the screenings, the members will vote to nominate five films for final Oscar consideration.
