The 2021 Oscar nominations have been announced.
The list of best picture nominees includes a number of movies original to streaming services, and several that have already made their way to such services despite their recent releases.
The Golden Globes, which are generally a strong signifier of who will take home the gold on Oscar night, were held just over two weeks ago and offered up a big night for streaming, though more heavily in television categories than film.
Netflix received a number of nominations, while several other nominees have worked their way onto major services like Hulu, HBO Max and Amazon Prime Video.
