All in all, not a bad group of nominees. Sure there are a couple of surprises thrown in there, Get Out has less nominations than The Greatest Showman and Christopher Plummer’s inclusion raises an eyebrow, but it’s more or less what most would expect.

Are there any snubs that stand out to you, dear reader (*coughthebigsickcough*)? If so, make sure to sound off in the comments. There’s still plenty of time to get around to seeing the majority of these films before NBC showcases the winners on January 7th, 2017. Just make sure not to plan anything for that evening, as the show notoriously runs well past the 3 hour bookmarked time. Seth Meyers will attempt to do his best to keep things running smooth, as the host.
