We've got the nominations this morning for the 94th Academy Awards.
Live from Los Angeles. All right, so here are the big nominees for Best Picture.
Don't Look Up Made the Cup as well as some other notable films.
King Richard, Dune West Side Story and licorice Pizza. Now the big one out there.
Yeah,
that a lot of people are obviously paying attention to That might be the front
runner when it comes to the Best Picture nomination is The Power of the Dog.
That seems to be the big one there.
That a lot of experts think might end up winning this category,
licorice Pizza The Indie Darling.
Also as well, for best actor in a leading role.
We have Javier Bardem for being the Ricardos,
which is on amazon Benedict Cumberbatch for Power of the Dog,
Andrew Garfield for Tick tick boom and Will smith for King Richard.
Also Denzel Washington for the Tragedy of Macbeth.
Meanwhile, over for best actress in a leading role, Jessica Chastain.
An amazing roll the eyes of tammy faye Olivia colman, another nomination for her.
The lost daughter, Penelope Cruz Nicole Kidman and kristen Stewart in spencer,
that's her role where she's playing um Princess Di.
Meanwhile,
Disney's and Canto also getting some big nominations for best animated
feature as well as a nod for best animated song.
This is a very big category here.
Ariel because lin Manuel Miranda for dos dos Tortugas. That's the song
that was nominated.
Not We Want to Talk About Bruno, which is by the way,
like the number one song right now that everybody is obsessed with.
If lin Manuel Miranda wins that category, he will officially be an Iga,
which is really exciting for him because he's won everything else except for that.
But he's going up against Beyonce in that category. For her song Be Alive.
This is the first time Beyonce has ever been nominated for an Oscar.
And then really briefly,
I want to say about the directing category because
her story was just made in that category,
jane Campion who is the Director of the Power of the Dog.
She is now the first woman in Oscar history to be nominated twice for best Director.
She previously was nominated for the Piano.
She didn't win in that category back then.
But we know the directing category has really had a lot of issues over the years.
Not nominating women. I mean for a long period of time
there was never a woman nominated in this category.
So the fact that Jane Campion,
who is also likely the front runner for this nomination,
getting her second nomination.
Pretty significant here. Any other big surprises that you've seen so far?
That is absolutely incredible baker. I especially on the her story front.
I think everybody see these lists because I'm a complete movie buff.
I'm very much upset. I haven't seen all of them. I still have somebody to see.
But what I'm noticing,
which is very interesting with this list is that all of these are stretchable.
Have you noticed that a large percentage of them you can just catch them online?
This is a sign of the Times right now. Big. Absolutely complete sign of the Times.
And we're getting a first look
really, really, really quickly.
One big snub lady gaga in the actress in a leading role.
And by the way, netflix likely gonna win their first best picture.
Oscar just based so far on the nomination so far,
so it could be huge for netflix this year.
