PGA Taps Peter Jackson, Joe Letteri, Weta Digital for 2014 Vanguard Award Can't Post

Credit were credit is due :)

I know the award is not just directed at the Hobbit but I find it to be a good omen as the criticism of some CGI aspects and choices mentioned in reviews of AUJ have somehow turned into "bad CGI" over the last year. This award honors people here imho who get out of their comfort zones, even if it may go against the business mainstream from time to time or even fail.

Praise is subjective. And so is criticism.
