Special effects clearly contribute to films, but to say that there wouldn't be a film without them is ludicrous. And to be annoyed that a director failed to mention them in something as trivial as an Oscars speech seems, to me, too low to sink for people who do actually make great designs.

Not all films require special effects, but this particular film wouldn't be where it is without special effects ...

I think it would be funny to watch a classic special-effects-ey movie with everything taken out. Like the above pictures, but a whole movie.
As far as the Oscars speech, they don't give the winner nearly enough time to thank everyone involved - I say the special effects team should drop it and be happy with their paycheck.
