When's the last time 2 musicals were up for Best Picture? ... In 1969, ''Oliver!'' and ''Funny Girl'' made it, and there were only 5 nominees then.

Alas, no Oscar nominations for ''Wicked's'' director, Jon Chu, or adapted screenplay, but I'm thrilled Stephen Schwartz and John Powell are up for Score!

''Wicked'' wasn't eligible for Original Song, but yesterday it was announced that none of the Song nominees will be performed on the telecast.

Elsewhere: Lin-Manuel Miranda didn't get nominated for ''Tell Me It's You'' from ''Mufasa.'' (And I'm bummed ''A Real Pain'' isn't up for Best Picture.)
