There was plenty to talk about throughout the day with these nominations. Here are just a few of the milestones, the snubs, and the surprises from this batch of nominees.
-La La Land ties the all-time nominations record

Everybody said it couldn't happen, but once again, Damien Chazelle's splashy movie musical surpassed all expectations. Throughout the last few days, many Oscar pundits said that there was no way for La La Land to tie the all time nomination record of 14, set by All About Eve and Titanic. There was a good chance for the film to miss in Costume Design and Sound Editing, but in the end, the love for one of the most popular movies in recent memory pushed it over the edge. La La Land earned 14 nominations, capping off an incredible season for Chazelle's masterpiece. I predicted that the film would tie the record in my predictions yesterday, gaining optimism after the Golden Globes sweep. There's a chance for La La Land fatigue to set in, but at this moment, it's the one to beat.
-Mel Gibson's comeback?

Of all the filmmakers who could possibly fill in that fifth slot, I must say that I certainly was not expecting Mel Gibson's name to be called. Garth Davis, David Mackenzie, Martin Scorsese, and even Denzel Washington were all possibilities, but few were anticipating that the often-maligned Gibson would make the cut with the directors branch. And yet, here we are. Gibson earned a nomination for his strong work on Hacksaw Ridge, a vicious, old-fashioned piece of work that highlighted his incredible skills as a filmmaker. Gibson is still despised in many circles in Hollywood- does this nomination change anything? Probably not. There were still quite a few angry people this morning when Gibson's name was called. However, it ensures that he'll keep getting movies made, and if those movies are good, he will get nominated.
-Michael Shannon gets a well-deserved nod

Nocturnal Animals ended up following a similar track throughout the entire awards season- it did great with foreign audiences, and fell short with American movie-goers. Tom Ford's brilliant thriller snagged several Golden Globe and BAFTA nominations, but today, the team woke up to only one nod from the Academy. Thankfully, that nomination was for Michael Shannon, who delivers an outstanding performance as a gruff, sardonic Texas lawman. Shannon gives the best performance in a film filled with excellent turns from great actors, and this was the best surprise of the morning for me. He'll likely lose out to Mahershala Ali, but after Aaron Taylor-Johnson's shocking win at the Globes, who knows- maybe there's some more supporting magic for the film.
-Amy Adams snubbed in competitive Best Actress category
We always knew that the Best Actress race was going to be incredibly competitive this year, and that some very deserving individuals would be left off the list. I mentioned yesterday that the only actresses ensured to get a nomination were Natalie Portman and Emma Stone, who ended up receiving recognition from the Academy. I considered Amy Adams to be fairly safe, but in the end, she was snubbed in favor of Ruth Negga, who many suspected had fallen off the list. Annette Bening also missed the cut, but if we're being honest, that was expected. The more shocking omission was certainly Adams, who did career-best work in Arrival. Nonetheless, in a brutal year, Adams fell short, even with the overall strength of Denis Villeneuve's incredible work.
-Passengers and Suicide Squad? Really?
There are always a few terrible films that make the cut in the below-the-line categories, and this year, the strange combination of Suicide Squad and Passengers stood out from the pack. The former received a nomination for Best Makeup and Hairstyling, beating out Deadpool, Florence Foster Jenkins, and a few other favorites. The latter received nods for Best Production Design (a deserving nomination) and Best Original Score (frankly shocking). The thought of having to say "Oscar nominee Suicide Squad" is just terrible- here's hoping that Star Trek Beyond beats it out on Oscar night!
-No Deadpool in the end

After weeks of hubbub and Hollywood excitement surrounding the potential Best Picture nomination for Deadpool, the R-rated superhero movie received a grand total of zero nominations. I like this movie, don't get me wrong, but there was some kind of hilarious irony to all the superhero fans putting their chips on a long shot. Blockbusters deserve a place in the Best Picture race, but if films like Skyfall, The Dark Knight, and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows- Part 2 can't make the cut, then the Merc with a Mouth shouldn't either.
-Silence falls short
Everybody thought that Silence was a surefire Best Picture nominee. After all, 5 out of the last 6 Scorsese movies have been nominated for the most prestigious prize in Hollywood. But after a late start, the difficult drama received only one nomination for Rodrigo Prieto's cinematography. This is a weighty film that requires a great deal of contemplation, and in such a crowded season, Silence was almost universally rejected. It's not surprising, but it is disappointing.
-Biggest Snub of the Day- "Drive It Like You Stole It"

Of all the nominees I was hoping for this morning, "Drive It Like You Stole It" for Best Original Song was at the top of my list. And of course, it didn't happen. I have nothing else to say on this matter. I'm just incredibly disappointed. Sing Street deserved better. Much, much better.
So yeah......those are your 2017 Oscar nominees! Look for more updates and predictions in the coming weeks before all is revealed on February 26.
