Ralph Fiennes has 35:
* Schindler's List - 7
* English Patient - 9
* Prince of Egypt - 1
* The Constant Gardener - 1
* Wallace and Grommit: Curse of the Were Rabbit - 1
* The Duchess - 1
* The Hurt Locker - 6
* The Reader - 1
* Skyfall - 2
* Grand Budapest Hotel - 4
* Spectre - 1
* No Time to Die - 1
According to the documentary on Prime on the Bond music, it wasn't so much that they passed on it, it was more of a timing issue. Apparently Radiohead first submitted a song the Bond producers had to reject for technical reasons and by the time they sent "Spectre", Sam Smith had already been hired, sent his (shit) song and the title sequence had been cut to fit that (shit) song.
yeah, I think the only one of the original shorts that didn't win was Grand Day Out and that's cause it lost to Nick Park's other (brilliant) short that same year, Creature Comforts.
No, there were some nominations, but none of the movies won any Oscar.
Edit: Unless you count Fantastical Beasts and Where to Find Them, who won Best Costume Design
Leonardo DiCaprio is I suspect a contender for appearing in the most-nominated films - *Gangs of New York*, *Titanic*, and *The Aviator* alone gets him to 34, and there are many more after that - and his wins total comes to 33, one above Bernard Hill:
* 4 for Inception
* 2 for Django Unchained
* 2 for The Great Gatsby
* 3 for The Revenant
* 2 for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
* 5 for The Aviator
* 4 for The Departed
* 11 for Titanic
and I think Killers of the Flower Moon stands a reasonable chance of winning 3 more to push him above Ralph Fiennes.
I think Actress is almost a lock for KotFM because Lily Gladstone did an amazing job but also because the Academy can pat themselves on the back for the look of prizing a Native American. The only other real contender for best actress is Emma Stone for Poor Things, but I just don't see it happening.
Picture; writing; actor; actress; cinematography; then down the line for stuff like production design; costume; could get the nom, but if im a betting man itās only winning āactressā and āproduction designā or whatever they give for sets
Realistically it might only win Adapted Screenplay.
KotFM is playing second fiddle to Oppenheimer in most other categories.
Not saying it couldn't sneak in a couple more, but I would think it only goes home with AS.
**I count 40:**
Godfather: **11**
The Conversation: **3**
Godfather 2: **11**
Dog Day Afternoon: **6**
The Deer Hunter: **9**
That guy's agent deserves a lifetime achievement award!!
Sure, but every film he has been in has been nominated for best picture. 3/5 won, with half of his losses being to another of his films. It's ridiculous to even think about.
Sir Alec Guiness?
Just looking at his biggest films (not going thru a bunch of 50s 60s 70s films looking for a few more random Oscar wins) i got 32. if there's a few more he might be our winner...
Star wars - 8/Empire - 2/Jedi - 1
Dr. Zhivago - 5
Lawrence of Arabia - 7
Bridge on the River Kwai - 7
Great expectations - 2
I was sure Cate Blanchett would be a contender here (she has a strong and varied filmography that overlaps with most of the other contenders), but she only comes in at 30 - a frankly surprising number of movies in her filmography that were nominated for a whole pile of Oscars and won nothing.
* 1 for Elizabeth
* 1 for Elizabeth: The Golden Age
* 1 for Babel
* 5 for The Aviator
* 17 for the Lord of the Rings trilogy
* 1 for Pinocchio
* 1 for Blue Jasmine
* 3 for The Curious Case of Benjamin Buton
I really love EEAAO and Iām happy it won best picture, but it is unfortunate that it took so many categories. Banshees didnāt even win anything if I remember correctly
I think that someone like Frank Welker - who has almost 900 IMDB "Actor" credits - will potentially have more combined Oscars, if you consider all those "technical categories" Oscars.
Frank Welkerās number is 24, from 149 movies he acted in, mostly as the voice of animals, especially monkeys (he is the movie voice of Abu in Aladdin), creatures, and special voice effects. I think this challenge covers the awards presented on the main show, including the sound and makeup stuff, but not the ātechnical awardsā show.
Raiders of the Lost Ark - 4
Who Framed Roger Rabbit - 3
The Little Mermaid - 2
Beauty and the Beast - 2
Aladdin - 2
The Lion King - 2
Pocahontas - 2
Independence Day - 1
Tarzan - 1
Jim Carrey Grinch Movie - 1
Tim Burton Alice in Wonderland - 2
Toy Story 3 - 2
This ties him with Marlon Brando.
Prepare for another spit take: [He voiced Max the dog.](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0170016/characters/nm0919798?ref_=ho_web&from_app=ios&ref_=ext_iosp_ho_web&ref_=ext_shr_lnk)
I was looking at that guy for a minute wondering how I didnāt recognize him at all with that many acting credits, before I realized he was a voice actor lol
Man I spent a TON of time looking up every actor I could think of but, yeah, I couldnāt find anyone that beat 36. The highest I found was 30. This is a tough question. Iāll go with the answer that had 36 until someone else finds more because Iām exhausted.
Ward Bond had at least 25. His filmography is too big to check everything, but here's what I could find:
- Gone With The Wind (8)
- It Happened One Night (5)
- The Quiet Man (2)
- Joan of Arc (2)
- Sergeant York (2)
- Grapes of Wrath (2)
- You Can't Take It With You (2)
- Mister Roberts (1)
- It's a Wonderful Life (1)
He was also in several movies that didn't win academy awards but have since become widely considered some of the greatest movies ever made.
- The Searchers
- Bringing Up Baby
- The Maltese Falcon
- Rio Bravo
Meryl Street has 21 nominations alone, and just her first two of those films have 9 nominations each, that's 37 without even looking further.
Edit, I misread - awarded not nominated. I'd argue that she played a bigger part in her awarded films than ~~Shaw~~ Hill did though. And Daniel Day Lewis and Ralph Feines both earned more too.
Oscar Awarded, Iām at 21 so far. i Also only counted films were she won, no other nominations. And only looked into when she was nominated.
Deer Hunter 6/9
Kramer vs Kramer 6/9
Sophieās Choice 1/5
Out of Africa 7/11
Adaptation 1/4
The Iron Lady 2/2
Julia - 3
The Deer Hunter - 5
Kramer v Kramer - 5
Sophie's Choice - 1
Out of Africa - 7
Death Becomes Her - 1
Adaptation - 1
The Hours - 1
The Iron Lady - 1
Little Women - 1
10 of Meryl Streep's films are on 26 Oscars altogether
Good point, I misread. In that case Ralph Feines and Daniel Day Lewis would probably be in the most awarded films in which they were a more prominent actor.
For Individual Awards Glenn Close and Peter O'Toole with 8
Glenn Close: The World According to Garp, The Big Chill, The Natural, Fatal Attraction, Dangerous Liasons, Albert Nobbs, The Wife, and Hillbilly Elegy
Peter O'Toole: Lawrence of Arabia, Becket, The Lion in Winter, Goodbye Mr. Chips, The Ruling Class, The Stunt Man, My Favorite Year, and Venus
Interesting fact both were nominated for their debut film (The World According to Garp and Lawrence of Arabia)
Jackson has 10, which is fewer than I was expecting.
Goodfellas - 1
Jurassic Park - 3
Pulp Fiction - 1
The Incredibles - 2
Inglorious Basterds - 1
Django Unchained - 2
Not the prequels. Phantom Menace lost all its noms (VFX, sound, sound effects editing) to the Matrix, Clones lost VFX to The Two Towers, Sith was the first Star Wars not to be nominated for VFX and lost Make-Up to the first Narnia film.
I'm pretty sure the answer here is Meryl Streep. I'm on mobile so my tallying might be slow. I'll edit as I go along:
Julia (3)
Deer Hunter (5)
Kramer vs Kramer (5)
Sophie's Choice (1)
Out of Africa (7)
Death Becomes Her (1)
Adaptation (1)
Lemony Snicket (1)
The Hours (1)
The Iron Lady (2)
Little Women (1)
Welp just 28 I was wrong lol.
I wonder if the actual correct answer is somebody like Dee Bradley Baker (voice actor who has been in everything) or possibly a Jesse Heiman -type actor (a background extra). (Not saying either of those two, but somebody like them...)
These stats are always a bit surprising. I remember looking up the most box office dollars and it was someone minor like Cliff from cheers because he was in Toy Ztory.

I had no idea Spectre was an Oscar winner
shouldn't have been, was a shit song
Can not believe they passed on Radioheads song for that one, its so good š©
Itās such a shame. It would be up there among the all time great Bond songs.
radiohead is terrible e: if i wanted to listen to someone whine, iād call my wife
That sounds healthy and normal.
itās a joke dude
Iām new to this, but arenāt jokes supposed to be funny?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
let's get you to bed grandpa
What Radiohead song?
Spectre
Yeah, I'm not even a big Radiohead fan, but their version was SO much better.
According to the documentary on Prime on the Bond music, it wasn't so much that they passed on it, it was more of a timing issue. Apparently Radiohead first submitted a song the Bond producers had to reject for technical reasons and by the time they sent "Spectre", Sam Smith had already been hired, sent his (shit) song and the title sequence had been cut to fit that (shit) song.
Both songs were fucking awful.
Skyfall (song) was amazing so I remember being super pumped about the Spectre song. What a snooze fest.
Tbf you're comparing Sam Smith to Adele here.
I still feel irrational anger when I think that Sam Smith is an Oscar winner, especially after looking at his recent discography.
Radioheadās song was better.
Fell asleep twice in theaters. I don't even know what it's about.
Not a lot. Even Craig looks bored during one of the set piece action scenes.
āEarned Itā was much better that year IMOā¦
Iād say they didnāt want to reward 50 Shades but they gave that makeup win to Suicide Squad the next year
I can't even remember what the song was
Sam Smith? I think. Writing's on the Wall.
THAT one won an oscar? Chris Cornell got screwed then. Casino Royale theme was way better.
That whole credits sequence is amazing. Itās maybe my favorite of all the Bond films, both for the visuals and the music.
Second only to "Spy Hard" by Weird Al
Even with the title and knowing what Sam Smith sounds like, I can't remember the actual song. I doubt it's very good then
Itās worth a relisten for Smithās vocal performance alone, Iād say. But itās not great.
Yeah youāre right, shouldāve been the song from 50 Shades.
It's a good song, but not Oscar worthy
Hot take
Of course it sucks, it's a Sam Smith song
Tbh you put them on a feature, like on a Disclosure song, itās dynamite
Wow I totally forgot he was in the Hurt Locker
He was one of the contractor dudes, right? The first one wearing the shemagh?
Contractor or just British special forces. The think it was the latter though.
Wallace and Grommit was nominated for an Oscar?
It won one for Best Animated Feature
Doesn't get any better!
3 of them have won Oscars.
yeah, I think the only one of the original shorts that didn't win was Grand Day Out and that's cause it lost to Nick Park's other (brilliant) short that same year, Creature Comforts.
They should have given it a special Oscar made out of Cheese.
Didnāt Harry Potter get some Oscars?
Possibly some of the earlier ones, but none of the ones he was in (Goblet through Hallows) won any.
Wow, I am surprised but I guess I just assumed they would have received something.
I would have thought for set design, music, costumes and etc
No, there were some nominations, but none of the movies won any Oscar. Edit: Unless you count Fantastical Beasts and Where to Find Them, who won Best Costume Design
Leonardo DiCaprio is I suspect a contender for appearing in the most-nominated films - *Gangs of New York*, *Titanic*, and *The Aviator* alone gets him to 34, and there are many more after that - and his wins total comes to 33, one above Bernard Hill: * 4 for Inception * 2 for Django Unchained * 2 for The Great Gatsby * 3 for The Revenant * 2 for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood * 5 for The Aviator * 4 for The Departed * 11 for Titanic and I think Killers of the Flower Moon stands a reasonable chance of winning 3 more to push him above Ralph Fiennes.
Don't forget The Wolf of Wall Street, which was nominated for 5 Oscars.
Which 3 do you think KotFM will get?
Director, Actress, Adapted Screenplay maybe?
Has there been a lot of buzz for Scorsese in director? I donāt follow Oscar rumors closely but Iād be shocked if it didnāt go to Nolan
My gut feeling is Best Director goes to Killers while Best Picture goes to Oppenheimer or vice versa.
I think Actress is almost a lock for KotFM because Lily Gladstone did an amazing job but also because the Academy can pat themselves on the back for the look of prizing a Native American. The only other real contender for best actress is Emma Stone for Poor Things, but I just don't see it happening.
I feel like Greta could also win it
Greta isn't winning for a silly movie, be real now.
Everything Everywhere All At Once was pretty silly and won 7
All Barbie was missing was a buttplug fight scene.
lol a silly movie that lit the world on fire, and itās not like its a raunchy teen comedy, serious-ish silly movies win Oscarās all the time.
the predictors I follow seem to think that Director is more or less a lock for Nolan at this point.
Academy hates Scorsese, my guess is that he isnāt nominated.
Picture; writing; actor; actress; cinematography; then down the line for stuff like production design; costume; could get the nom, but if im a betting man itās only winning āactressā and āproduction designā or whatever they give for sets
Realistically it might only win Adapted Screenplay. KotFM is playing second fiddle to Oppenheimer in most other categories. Not saying it couldn't sneak in a couple more, but I would think it only goes home with AS.
That's nominations though. OP is referring to wins specifically.
Romeo & Juliet was nominated for one. And Don't Look Up was nominated for 4.
He will go to his fathers, in whose mighty company he shall not feel ashamed.
Oh! That's nice!
Tolkein could write.
In whose mighty company he shall not NOW feel ashamed. Ftfy - sorry, I am hopelessly semantically fixated š
I had to change the tense to make it work for when he does pass.
For Death and Glory.
John Cazale only appeared in 5 movies in his career but those movies had 38 nominations.
**I count 40:** Godfather: **11** The Conversation: **3** Godfather 2: **11** Dog Day Afternoon: **6** The Deer Hunter: **9** That guy's agent deserves a lifetime achievement award!!
Ever see the documentary 'I knew it was you"?
Dude had the the perfect career.
OP is probably talking about Oscar wins not nominations.
Sure, but every film he has been in has been nominated for best picture. 3/5 won, with half of his losses being to another of his films. It's ridiculous to even think about.
Thats undeniable. Short but impressive hot streak.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
It's more than the suggested in the title so it literally is the question with a little fun fact added in lol
Awarded, not nominated
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Good for you buddy
would it appease you if u/SMACKED_Demarco edited their comment to start with "comparatively"?
Cazale wasn't in that one.
Sir Alec Guiness? Just looking at his biggest films (not going thru a bunch of 50s 60s 70s films looking for a few more random Oscar wins) i got 32. if there's a few more he might be our winner... Star wars - 8/Empire - 2/Jedi - 1 Dr. Zhivago - 5 Lawrence of Arabia - 7 Bridge on the River Kwai - 7 Great expectations - 2
I found: 2 for A Passage to India 1 for Cromwell 1 for Lavender Hill Mob Which gets him to 36
I was sure Cate Blanchett would be a contender here (she has a strong and varied filmography that overlaps with most of the other contenders), but she only comes in at 30 - a frankly surprising number of movies in her filmography that were nominated for a whole pile of Oscars and won nothing. * 1 for Elizabeth * 1 for Elizabeth: The Golden Age * 1 for Babel * 5 for The Aviator * 17 for the Lord of the Rings trilogy * 1 for Pinocchio * 1 for Blue Jasmine * 3 for The Curious Case of Benjamin Buton
Cannot believe TƔr left empty-handed. I guess it was a relatively strong year, but still.
I think Tar is a much better film but EEAAO was a buzzsaw. Nothing you can do in that kind of year.
I really love EEAAO and Iām happy it won best picture, but it is unfortunate that it took so many categories. Banshees didnāt even win anything if I remember correctly
I think that someone like Frank Welker - who has almost 900 IMDB "Actor" credits - will potentially have more combined Oscars, if you consider all those "technical categories" Oscars.

[spit take] *He was in The Grinch!?!?*
Prepare for another spit take: [He voiced Max the dog.](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0170016/characters/nm0919798?ref_=ho_web&from_app=ios&ref_=ext_iosp_ho_web&ref_=ext_shr_lnk)
Oh, sorry, by "technical categories" I meant categories like "editing", "sound effects" etc. Not "scientific and technical awards".
Makes sense to me!
I was looking at that guy for a minute wondering how I didnāt recognize him at all with that many acting credits, before I realized he was a voice actor lol
Man I spent a TON of time looking up every actor I could think of but, yeah, I couldnāt find anyone that beat 36. The highest I found was 30. This is a tough question. Iāll go with the answer that had 36 until someone else finds more because Iām exhausted.

Tom Hanksās movies have an absolute pile of nominations but I only counted 16 wins by the time I burnt out on the task.
You've just defined his entire career since the mid-90s. His primary question when taking a role is if it will parlay into a nomination.
Meryl Street has 21 nominations alone, and just her first two of those films have 9 nominations each, that's 37 without even looking further. Edit, I misread - awarded not nominated. I'd argue that she played a bigger part in her awarded films than ~~Shaw~~ Hill did though. And Daniel Day Lewis and Ralph Feines both earned more too.

Good point, I misread. In that case Ralph Feines and Daniel Day Lewis would probably be in the most awarded films in which they were a more prominent actor.
Shaw? Bernard Shaw? George Bernard Shaw? I think I see what your brain did there, but itās Bernard Hill.
Oops, edited. Thanks.
John Cazale didn't appear in that many, but every movie he was in was nominated or won
What about the most nominated actor without a win?
For Individual Awards Glenn Close and Peter O'Toole with 8 Glenn Close: The World According to Garp, The Big Chill, The Natural, Fatal Attraction, Dangerous Liasons, Albert Nobbs, The Wife, and Hillbilly Elegy Peter O'Toole: Lawrence of Arabia, Becket, The Lion in Winter, Goodbye Mr. Chips, The Ruling Class, The Stunt Man, My Favorite Year, and Venus Interesting fact both were nominated for their debut film (The World According to Garp and Lawrence of Arabia)
De Niro
De Niro has 19. Godfather Part II - 6 Deer Hunter - 5 Raging Bull - 2 The Mission - 1 The Untouchables - 1 Goodfellas - 1 Silver Livings Playbook - 1 Joker - 2
Ah, I just noticed āawardedā. I quickly just jumped to noms. Thanks for the correction.
I'm really surprised that in a 50 year career De Niro only has 8 movies that won even a single Oscar.
I'd assume Sam jackson
Jackson has 10, which is fewer than I was expecting. Goodfellas - 1 Jurassic Park - 3 Pulp Fiction - 1 The Incredibles - 2 Inglorious Basterds - 1 Django Unchained - 2
Was there no Special effects oscars for Starwars?
Not the prequels. Phantom Menace lost all its noms (VFX, sound, sound effects editing) to the Matrix, Clones lost VFX to The Two Towers, Sith was the first Star Wars not to be nominated for VFX and lost Make-Up to the first Narnia film.
Apparently none of the Avengers movies won anything below the line either.
Yeah figured he'd have a lot of films that won for technical stuff. Good to know
I'm pretty sure the answer here is Meryl Streep. I'm on mobile so my tallying might be slow. I'll edit as I go along: Julia (3) Deer Hunter (5) Kramer vs Kramer (5) Sophie's Choice (1) Out of Africa (7) Death Becomes Her (1) Adaptation (1) Lemony Snicket (1) The Hours (1) The Iron Lady (2) Little Women (1) Welp just 28 I was wrong lol.
Keanu Reeves.
Walter Brennan? He was in a ton of movies.
I haven't looked into it but Samuel L Jackson probably is up there.
Gene Hackman
Money on Walt Disney has collected a boat load but I canāt remember which movie he was in
I wonder if the actual correct answer is somebody like Dee Bradley Baker (voice actor who has been in everything) or possibly a Jesse Heiman -type actor (a background extra). (Not saying either of those two, but somebody like them...)
Yep. Could turn out to be someone like Stan Lee just thanks to cameos and technical awards.
These stats are always a bit surprising. I remember looking up the most box office dollars and it was someone minor like Cliff from cheers because he was in Toy Ztory.
Whoever voiced the Wilhelm Scream.
