The winners of the 7th Annual VES Awards
Wall-E and The Dark Knight with 3 VES Awards a piece
The 7th Annual Visual Effects Society (VES) Awards were held on February 21st and a few sci-fi / fantasy films took home awards. Ironically Iron Man, which had led the nominations leading up to the awards (with 5 Noms), didn’t win a thing. Instead, Wall-E and The Dark Knight stole the show (behind The Curious Case of Benjamin Button which won the top awards of the night).
