Who are the nominees? Our 2017 Oscars nominations list

Who will win?Our predictions for tonight

What can we expect? Plenty of political talk, according to Julie Hinds. There's also a chance that "La La Land," which was nominated for 14 Academy Awards, could set a record for number of Oscar wins. The current record is 11, shared by "Ben Hur," "Titanic" and "Lord of the Rings: Return of the King."

How late do the Oscars go? Pretty late. Last year's Oscars, which started at 8 p.m., ran for about 3 hours and 45 minutes. With this year's show starting at 8:30, expect the Oscars - culminating with the Best Picture winner at the end of the night, to approach midnight, if not surpass it. Either set your DVR or load up on coffee Monday morning!

Who will perform? The "Best Original Song" nominees will each perform tonight. That includes: "Audition (The Fools Who Dream)," "La La Land"; "Can't Stop The Feeling!" "Trolls"; "City of Stars," "La La Land"; "The Empty Chair," "Jim: The James Foley Story"; "How Far I'll Go," "Moana".
