Apparently announcing a day earlier than expected, but here they are. What may be a purposely ironic number, 12 Years a Slave leads the pack with 12 nominations, including one in the newly-created Best Editing category. Her also did quite well, as did Gravity (the first time the film has gotten a major boost from the precursors).
