Gregory S. Hale, 37, was arrested at his home - in a small rural community just outside Manchester - late Sunday. He is charged with premeditated first-degree murder and abuse of a corpse, Coffee County District Attorney Mickey Layne told the Associated Press on Tuesday.

The visual effects that we are seeing in movies these days are absolutely mind blowing. At this point it doesn't seem like there's any excuse for a film to have bad visual effects unless the people hired lack talent, or the studio is keeping the cash in their pockets.
There's a lot of good nomination this year such as Captain America, Harry Potter, Pirates of the Caribbean 4, Rise of the Planet of the Apes, and Transformers: Dark of the Moon. Out of all of these I think that Planet of the Apes might take home the top prize, those apes were incredibly freaky looking. Weta did an amazing job with this movie, and out of all the other nominations this was the movie I was most impressed by. What are your thoughts? What movie did you think have the best visual effect in 2011?
Here's the full press release with all of the nominations:

A dead body has been discovered at the recently concluded Bonnaroo Festival in Tennessee. The cleaning crew uncovered the lifeless body of a man in his 20s on the camping grounds on Tuesday.
Authorities said that the man was discovered in a tent. He was last seen alive around 3 p.m. on Monday.
The festival concluded in the early hours of Monday morning. While most of the camping festival-goers already left, there were still dozens of Bonnaroo workers who stayed behind to help with the cleaning.
Coffee County Sheriff Steve Graves revealed there were no signs of trauma to the body. Police are still trying to find out his identity, though they think he may be from Alabama.
