More Awards Updates: OotP on Shortlist for Best Makeup Oscar, Golden Globe Ceremony News

here are two more award related pieces of news this morning to update you on. First, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Science announced the seven remaining films in contention for the Achievement in Makeup award, and included Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. OotP is among seven films the Academy is considering for the Oscar in this category, with three films to be chosen for the final nominations which are due to be announced on Tuesday, January 22.

As we told you earlier, several cast members of the Harry Potter films have been nominated for their work in other movies (full list here), and we will update you when the awards are announced on January 13, with the press conference to be broadcast at 9:00pm (ET) on NBC.
