Tonight is the greatest night for movies! For tonight the 89th Academy Awards will be held tonight at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles honoring the best in film for 2016.

2016 was a great year for movies! From musicals to war films, movies about historical figures and independent dramas, 2016 proved to be a historical year for movies.

Leading the pack of nominated films for tonight's Oscars is the musical film La La Land. With 14 Oscar nominations, it is the third film to tie the record for the most nominated movie in Academy Award history. The other two films are All About Eve (1950) and Titanic (1997).

Will La La Land break the record of most wins at the Oscars? The number to beat is 11 and only three films have won that many awards: Ben-Hur (1959), Titanic (1997), and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003). I say it won't and I hate to be a Debby downer here. I say La La Land will win at least 9 Oscars including Best Picture (which in all honesty I don't think it should but it will because Oscar history tends to award musicals over everything else).

Behind La La Land we have Arrival and Moonlight with 8 nominations a piece. Moonlight is a personal favorite of mine. Its story and cinematography are beautiful and I hope that Moonlight gets the recognition that it deserves.

Other films that are up for awards tonight include Hacksaw Ridge, Lion, Manchester by the Sea, Fences, Hell or High Water, and Hidden Figures. Such great films that are nominated tonight that it is going to be hard to choose who will win.

In all honesty, I hope that La La Land doesn't sweep tonight. All the films that I just listed up above and even other films such as Jackie deserve to have the spotlight on them and not just on one film. But we'll see how that goes tonight.

This year's Oscars are one for the history books. After two years of controversy due to a lack of diversity at the Academy Awards, we see a boost of representation of minorities this year.

Tonights acting nominees have a record-tying seven actors with six black actors (a new record) up for Oscars. Dev Patel could become the first Indian actor to win an Oscar tonight for his performance in Lion.

For the first time in Academy history, each acting category has a black actor, with Best Supporting Actress having three actresses: Viola Davis, Naomi Harris, and Octavia Spencer who won this award in 2012 for The Help.

Viola Davis is also the first black actress to earn three Academy Award nominations having been nominated for Doubt, The Help, and tonight for Fences.

We also have three black writers nominated for screenplay awards, Barry Jenkins Best Director nomination for Moonlight, and the first African-Americans to be nominated for Best Cinematography and Best Film Editing all for Moonlight.

So who will win at this year's Academy Awards? How will Jimmy Kimmel be as a host? Who will be the best dressed? And will we see any political talk tonight? Tune in tonight at 8pm on ABC for the 89th Academy Awards!
