The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, or The Academy, have announced the nominations for the 2013 Academy Awards. The Oscars, as they are informally know, recognise excellence in the field of cinema achievements.

The 85th Academy Awards will include a tribute to the James Bond movie franchise which is celebrating its 50th Anniversary this year, the telecast’s producers announced today.

“We are very happy to include a special sequence on our show saluting the Bond films on their 50th birthday,” said producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron. “Starting with ‘Dr. No’ back in 1962, the 007 movies have become the longest-running motion picture franchise in history and a beloved global phenomenon.”

Watch a video of the announcement below, along with a full list of nominations.
