The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has announced that seven films are "in consideration" for the 2007 visual effects Academy Award.

They are:

Casino Royale
Eragon
Night at the Museum
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest
Poseidon
Superman Returns
X-Men: The Last Stand

Apparently, the visual effects found in Pan’s Labyrinth weren’t considered special enough.

On January 17, the Academy’s Visual Effects Award nominating committee will watch 15-minute excerpts from each of the seven films. Following the screenings, members will vote to nominate three films for the 2007 Oscar.
