The new TV season is in full-swing, so we dispatched Tara Bennett to cover 24 and SMALLVILLE this week. To freshen up the seventh season, Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland) relocates to D.C. to fight domestic terrorism as a new president is sworn in, with Stargate Studios providing its invaluable digital backlot work. For SMALLVILLE's eighth season, Entity FX reveals how it raises the bar with a few new wrinkles. Meanwhile, the Oscar VFX bakeoff takes place tomorrow night at the Academy's Samuel Goldwyn Theater, so best of luck to AUSTRALIA, THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON, THE DARK KNIGHT, HELLBOY II: THE GOLDEN ARMY, IRON MAN, JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH and THE MUMMY: TOMB OF THE DRAGON EMPEROR.
