Huh. Return of the King got 11 Oscar nominations, and 11 Oscars. Has that ever happened before?

This backs up my theory that they were cautiously waiting until the third film in the trilogy before giving them the big awards.

Twice before -- Ben Hur and Titanic each got 11 awards. I don't know what their percentages of nominations to Oscars were, though.
