Would it be Joe Letteri or Richard Taylor?

Although I think "Avengers" will most likely take the cake for this one, seeing as how effects-heavy it was. But hell if DOS doesn't win when we get to see Smaug. I just know he's gonna look stunning.

No, this is a complete lock for The Hobbit because of the 48fps thing

Like there is no way Avatar was going away empty handed, The Hobbit gets this because it's doing something revolutionary.

Weta Digital is, without a doubt, the top dog of computer animation right now. I highly doubt as much care was put into the effects of Avengers as was on The Hobbit. The Avengers was such a remarkably mediocre movie to begin with. I have yet to understand the praise it received.
