Lots of love for Clooney today as he is nominated four times for four different category( Best Picture,Best Actor,Best Director,Best screenplay).Thankfully both Michael Fassbender and Leonardo DiCaprio made it for the Best Actor and Ryan  Gosling  finally got double nomination for his work in 2011 although I felt  he should have been nominated for Drive instead of TIM.I have guessed Elizabeth Olsen will not make it as there are many  young actors having buzz right now especially Shailene Woodley.Its quite rare more than one  young actors got nominated and this year will be Shailene Woodley instead of the others.Viggo Mortensen is a surprise nomination instead of  Armie Hammer who was more deserving in my eyes.Harry Potter was absent in all category and The Muppets did  not get nominated for original songs,that is quite sad. As for the television category,it is nice to see Dominic West and Jessica Lange getting  a nod.
