I even bet on reddit the academy would not put all three major black films in the BP slot. I don't think HF necessarily deserves it but hey, neither does stuff in the past, so I'm fine.

 

I am REALLY jazzed about Arrival! And they (myself included) said it wouldn't happen!

Well, it looks like La La Land has this in the bag. Moonlight is really the only other contender, but it can't compete with a record 14 nominations for La La Land. 

 

My nom counts for all films with multiple (i.e. more than one) nominations:

 

La La Land - 14

Moonlight - 8

Arrival - 8 (no Amy Adams)

Lion - 6

Manchester by the Sea - 6 (no Editing)

Hacksaw Ridge - 6

Fences - 4 

Hell or High Water - 4

Jackie - 3

Hidden Figures - 3

Passengers - 2

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them - 2

Florence Foster Jenkins - 2

Kubo and the Two Strings - 2

A Man Called Ove - 2

Moana - 2

Rogue One - 2

Deepwater Horizon - 2

 

Peace,

Mike

So does La La Land have a shot at breaking the record of BenHur/Titanic/LotRRotK or are there too many categories it isn't likely to win?

in my current predictions i have it one short. ten wins.

 

1. picture

2. director

3. actress

4. cinematography

5. costumes

6. production design

7. editing

8. sound mixing

9. score

10. song

 

though it COULD win screenplay and sound editing and outright take the record.

Possibly.

 

2 of it's nominations are song, so only 13 possible wins.

 

Gosling isn't winning, so that's 12 and gets the record if it wins everything else (possible).

 

If it loses Screenplay it ties the record, and if it also loses a tech not a record.
