Tatlong special awards ang ipamimigay ng Eddys ngayong taon: ang Joe Quirino Award ay igagawad sa yumaong movie reviewer at professor na si Mario Hernando (Posthumous); Manny Pichel Award ay ibibigay sa Entertainment Editor at columnist na si Ricky Lo; at ang Producer of the Year ay igagawad kay Vic del Rosario, Jr., ng Viva Films.

Ang pagbibigay ng award ng SPEEd ay isang paraan para i-encourage, lalong pataasin ang moral at patuloy na magbigay-inspirasyon sa mga Filipino filmmakers, producers, writers, actors at iba pa na kasama sa pagbubuo ng isang matino at dekalidad na pelikula.
