Musical theater and hd interracial sex videosjazz nerds across the nation were cheering Tuesday morning as the Oscar nominees were announced and the delightful throwback La La Landpicked up a record-tying 14 nods.
Likewise, sci-fi nerds saluted the impressive 8 nominations for Arrival-- a genre movie (based on a verynerdy short story by Seattle-based technical writer Ted Chiang) that has so thoroughly inserted itself into the mainstream that most people don't even recognize it as a genre movie.

Top of that list has to be Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, which blasted its way into both the Achievement in Visual Effects and Achievement in Sound Mixing categories. It's not as great a showing as its "sequel" -- the original Star Warsgot a Best Picture nomination at the 1978 awards, where it lost out to Annie Hall-- but the motley band of rebels at Lucasfilm can be proud regardless.
Don't feel left out, Trekkies. Star Trek Beyondreceived a nod for Makeup and Hair Styling, matching the one nomination for the previous movie in the series, Star Trek Into Darkness.
Comic book fans may have expected Marvel's Deadpoolto win at least one nomination somewhere, but the Merc with a Mouth was evidently too much for the Academy. Instead, Warner Bros' so-so Suicide Squadis carrying the can for the whole comic nerd world with its Makeup nomination.
Well, that'snot going to intensify the online DC vs. Marvel flame wars or anything.
Meanwhile, Harry Potter lovers can cheer for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, which picked up nods in Production Design and Costume Design.
These mark nominations number 13 and 14 for the Harry Potter series as a whole -- though J.K. Rowling's franchise has criminally been denied an actual Oscar so far.
Maybe the Academy will finally take pity on the wizarding world, now that we're seeing its American version -- or maybe they're just a bunch of "no-majs."
SEE ALSO: The Oscars marked a victory for the written word — and for book nerdsAll in all, it's shaping up to be a triumphant year for uncool obsessives (personified by Ryan Gosling's protagonist in La La Land) and world-saving brainiacs (Amy Adams's alien-loving scientist in Arrival).
We see a trend here, given that last year's list was so dominated by book-based movies -- and that the 2016 winner, Spotlight, was also about the dogged determination of uncool obsessives. (In that case, journalists.)
If you needed any more evidence that geekdom has not just entered the mainstream, but has completely colonized it -- well, here it is.
