The dark knight, Ironman and Hellboy could be nominates for Oscar

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Superheroes Batman, Iron Man and Hellboy are mixing it up with Brad Pitt, Nicole Kidman and an ancient mummy for the visual-effects Academy Award.

The Batman blockbuster "The Dark Knight" is one of seven films competing for the Oscar, along with fellow comic-book adaptations "Iron Man" and "Hellboy II: The Golden Army."

The other four nominees Tuesday: Kidman's "Australia," Pitt's "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" and two Brendan Fraser actioners, "Journey to the Center of the Earth" and "The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor."

Members of the academy's visual-effects branch will view 15-minute excerpts from each film and choose three nominees for the Feb. 22 Oscars.

The Oscar nominations come out Jan. 22.

Yeah, I'm gonna have to go with Hellboy for this one.

That movie had some mindblowing special effects.

same only category in which they should beat the dark knight in my opinion

Iron man and Hellboy II deserve it more

WOW that is awesome

GO IRON MAN!!!

I'm waiting for a comic movie to be nominated in one of the major categories.  Nothing against special FX.  You know what I'm talking about. That'd be major news.

Chronicles of Narnia 2 should have been nominated.

Hellboy was amazing, but I'm with G-Man. If Ron Perlman got a best actor nom, that would be mind blowing.
