I believe Kaluuya for Get Out, it opened in the US before the previous years Oscar’s were even held. Opened Feb 24, Moonlight won Best Picture two days later on Feb 26.

Diane Warren got her sixth nomination in a row. Is that a record for the category? (Not a record in general, Edith Head, for example, was nominated from 1949 to 1967 sometimes multiple times a year)

And she’ll most likely lose it, so maybe that’ll be another record? Plus her own record of being the Academy’s biggest “loser.”

Is it the first time in oscar history that 16 out of the 20 acting nominees got their first nomination in one year? Especially for Best Actor, all five are first timers.

What is more, all nominees sans Blanchett never won before.
