Only one of the nine Best Picture nominees was among the top ten releases in box office receipts when the Academy revealed the nominations.Gravity was the highest-grossing film among the Best Picture nominees.Captain Phillips was the second-highest-grossing film with $105.5 million; this was followed by American Hustle($105.4 million), The Wolf of Wall Street ($80.7 million), 12 Years a Slave ($39 million), Philomena ($22.3 million),Dallas Buyers Club ($16.8 million), Her ($9.9 million), and Nebraska ($8.5 million).

Best Song controversy

The Academy revoked the Best Original Song nomination for Alone Yet Not Alone's title song after determining that composer Bruce Broughton violated the Academy's promotional regulations. Broughton, a former Academy governor and member of the music branch's executive committee, had emailed other music branch members to inform them of his submission.

Oscar protests

For the second year in a row, Visual Effects artists scheduled a protest outside the Academy Awards on Hollywood Boulevard. They were protesting against subsidies that were being used by foreign countries to take work away from California.
United Service Workers West also planned a protest outside the show, to call attention to the Academy's use of nonunion security officers for the show.
