2016 OSCAR NOMINATIONS!!!

Here are the nominees for the 2016 Academy Awards. I will be giving my analysis afterwards, and a big congratulations to all the nominees!

La La Land retakes it's frontrunner status in a bigtime way with a record-tying 14 nominations! The only 2 other films to ever reach that amount were All About Eve (1950) and Titanic (1997).

Arrival & Moonlight follow in a tie for 2nd with 8 nominations apiece.

Hacksaw Ridge, Lion, and Manchester by the Sea with strong showing of 6 nods apiece.

Fences and Hell or High Water both break into the big race with 4 apiece.

Hidden Figures rides it's strong word of mouth and commercial buzz to grab a Best Pic spot of it's own, one of it's 3 nominations...which was also the nod total for Jackie, which grabbed 3 but is the most-nommed film not to be up for the big prize.
