The 2014 Oscar Nominees Are Officially In

The 2014 Oscar nominations were just announced earlier today. The Super Bowl of movie award shows, which takes place Sunday, March 2, 2014, is shaping up to be one of the most competitive shows in years. And we say competitive because it’s been a wonderful year for movies and surely some great flicks and performances are going to be left out.  The 86th Academy Awards is guaranteed to be a wonderful night of television. We look forward to seeing Ellen DeGeneres hosting the awards and who comes out on top!
