RICK DIOR:
Thank you, Academy. I'd like to thank Universal Pictures. I'd like to thank the producers, Brian Grazer, Todd Hallowell. I'd like to thank, most of all, Ron Howard for making such a spectacular movie about the NASA space program, and Jim Lovell. Since this was a New York and L.A. contributions, I'd like to thank film editors Dan Hanley and Mike Hill. I'd like to thank dialogue editors Chic Ciccolini, Lisa Levine. I'd like to also thank my back room crew, Bobby Chefalas, Bobby Olari, and my son Scott Dior.

STEVE PEDERSON:
And in Los Angeles we want to thank Stephen Flick and his staff of effects editors including Donald Flick, Dean Beville and Ezra Dweck. Thanks to Todd-AO Studios for putting us all together. And we want to thank our families for putting up with the long hours and the weeks away from home. And we just want to say to Ron Howard that a special part of this belongs to you, Ron. Thanks.
