Eric Roth, Executive Director of the Visual Effects Society (VES), announced the results of the VES 50: The Most Influential Visual Effects Films of All Time, which was determined by a vote of VES members. "We're thrilled to present VES 50. These films have had a significant, lasting impact on the practice and appreciation of visual effects as an integral, artistic element of cinematic expression and the storytelling process," said Roth. We are equally thrilled about the programs that follow this theme and the industry's living legends we have participating in them."
