• John Williams is the first nonagenarian to be nominated for a competitive Academy Award. He is also the first person to be nominated for Oscars in seven consecutive decades.
• All Quiet on the Western Front is the second consecutive remake of a Best Picture winner to be nominated, following Spielberg’s remake of West Side Story last year. It is the third overall, after 1962’s Mutiny on the Bounty.
• This is the first year since 1934 where all the men nominated for Best Actor are first-time nominees.
• Ana de Armas is the second actress to be nominated for playing Marilyn Monroe, after her fellow nominee Michelle Williams.
• Angela Bassett is the first actor to be nominated for a performance given in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
• Additionally, Angela Bassett is also the fourth Black actress to be nominated more than once, after Whoopi Goldberg, Viola Davis, and Octavia Spencer.
• This has been perhaps the most dominant showing for Ireland at the Academy Awards in history. Colin Farrell, Paul Mescal, Kerry Condon, Brendan Gleeson and Barry Keoghan all are nominated for acting, and An Irish Goodbye was nominated in Live Action Short Film. Additionally, Ireland sees its first nomination for International Feature with The Quiet Girl. (NOTE: Martin McDonagh is not Irish-born, despite his parents being Irish emigrants.). Interestingly, this comes off the heels of 2021 being a very healthy showing for Ireland at the Oscars, with the Belfast gang and Jessie Buckley all getting nominated. (If Caitriona Balfe and Ruth Negga had been nominated as they should’ve been, this would’ve been a lot closer.)
• With his nomination for The Fabelmans, Judd Hirsch now has the record for the longest gap between nominations, at forty-two years.
• With her nomination for Everything Everywhere All At Once, Michelle Yeoh becomes the first person of full Asian descent to be nominated for Best Actress.
• With her nomination for Blonde, Ana de Armas is the fifth actress of Latin American descent to be nominated for Best Actress, following Fernanda Montenegro, Salma Hayek, Catalina Sandino Moreno and Yalitza Aparicio.
• Avatar: The Way of Water and Top Gun: Maverick make this the first time in Academy history that two films that grossed a billion dollars have been nominated for Best Picture.
• Jamie Lee Curtis is the third person nominated for acting whose parents were also both Oscar nominees, following Liza Minnelli and Laura Dern.
• For the first time in Academy history, all five Best Director nominees are also nominated for writing or co-writing the screenplays of their own films.
• With his nomination for Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio, Guillermo del Toro has become the first director with movies nominated for Best Picture, Best Animated Feature Film and Best Foreign Language Film.
• With his nomination for the short film Le pupille, Alfonso Cuarón now has nominations in 8 distinct categories (Best Picture, Best Director, Best Foreign Language Film, Best Original Screenplay, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Editing, Best Cinematography and Best Live Action Short Film). He now holds the record previously held by Kenneth Branagh.
• Ana de Armas is the first person nominated for acting in an NC-17 film since Marlon Brando in Last Tango in Paris in 1973.
• Mandy Walker (Elvis) is the third woman to ever be nominated for Best Cinematography, following Rachel Morrison (Mudbound) and Ari Wagner (The Power of the Dog).
• Avatar: The Way of Water's Best Picture nomination marks the fourth time a franchise has had multiple installments nominated for Best Picture, following Bing Crosby's Father O'Malley movies, the Godfather trilogy and the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

Since you're the expert at this "stats" stuff, do you know which # is De Armas for Latina actresses getting nominated for Leading Role? Only other ones I can think of are Hayek and (phhft!) Aparicio.

I suppose 55 years between first and last nominations might also be some sort of a record. He's also once again topped himself for most nominated living person lol, second behind Walt Disney as ever. He's six behind, maybe he'll catch up if he lives to 100.

Jamie Lee Curtis joins that (very restrict) club of being the daughter of two Oscar-nominated parents (Janet Leigh and Tony Curtis) who is now an official Oscar nominee. Not sure how many times this has happened. Liza Minnelli is the only example I can think of.
Surprised this is her first nomination, to be honest. She's always been reliable as actress (to say the least), and she's a BAFTA winner already!

It's always been Bassett vs. Condon, and I don't think things will change now. Bassett, in particular, is very respected within the industry (as much as, or even more than Curtis), and I suspect they won't miss this opportunity to award her.

Honestly, I’m just making fun of Hugo I don’t think much of her nomination. I basically see it as a “career achievement” nomination. Which is fine, because JLC is wonderful, but this is just coattail riding off the film in my eyes.

Also, maybe someone can correct me, but is this the first year that two films have earned four acting nominations apiece (including one film claiming two slots in the Supporting categories)?

I should have figured Completely agree with you about the rest, especially on her nomination feeling like a 'career achivement' thing. But I have to admit, I like living in a world where Jamie Lee Curtis is an Oscar nominated actress.

Thank you, thomasjerome (who for some reason deleted his post that I quoted? 🤷♂️) 🙏 Aubrey Plaza should have made this list 2 years ago for BLACK BEAR, she's my WIN for 2020 actually, and Aparicio's nomination is still such a bad fucking JOKE (and this coming from someone who thought ROMA was robbed of BP that year).

Go Angela.

And yes, Plaza would be a great nominee (this year also for "Emily the Criminal").

Go Angela. No, she wasn't. Hunter was better. It was just bad luck she had to be against her. Similar to poor Jessica Lange in FRANCES having to go against Meryl in SOPHIE'S CHOICE.
