Broadcast critics awards: In case anyone cares
Since no one pays attention to these jokers, their efforts to produce a solidified front were justified tonight, when they gave awards more or less to the films everyone more or less expects to win.
Anyway, here's your key graf from the press release:
King Kong received a special Distinguished Achievement in Performing Arts Award to recognize the revolutionary cinematic achievement in synthesizing visual effects with an actor’s performance to create the character. The award was accepted by actor Andy Serkis, animation director Christian Rivers, animation supervisor Joe Letteri and via special effects, King Kong himself.
