I should jolly well think so. I mean, have any of these other films got anything as good as the Gringotts dragon? The effects in DH2 are all there in the service of the story, not to make you go ‘Wow, what good effects!’

I hope they use the shield over hogwarts scene to preview the films visual effects as that scene was just amazing to watch! The visual effects department really shined at that scene

There’s an online poll here for the film people think deserves to win. HP could do with a few extra votes!
