We had so much fun putting together every best picture ever, we thought we'd highlight every best visual effects winner next. For the 1927/28 Academy awards, the award was for engineering effects. There was no award again until 1938 where it was called a special award "for outstanding achievement in creating special photographic and sound effects. The very next year the award was combined with sound effects and called the Award for Special Effects. It wasn't until 1963 that the award became the Award for Best Visual Effects (which it is still called today). It was given every year from 1963 to present, with the exception of 1973. Hope you enjoy! **Also we apologize for the two title mistakes. We had already uploaded it when we noticed: *The Thief OF Bagdad *Reap The Wild WIND
