12 Hours of Oscar: 2010 Academy Awards trivia every hour until the show starts.

Want a reason to root for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen during tonight’s Oscar telecast? No, seriously. Do you?

Sound re-recording mixer Greg P. Russell has the dubious honor of being the night’s most nominated individual without a win. Russell has been nominated for Oscar 13 times, including his current Best Sound nomination for the Transformers sequel, but has yet to take home a trophy. Sound re-recording mixer Anna Behlmer, nominated for Star Trek, comes in second with 10 nominations and no wins. If you hear either Star Trek or Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen called out tonight when they open the envelope for Best Sound, know that someone had the award coming.

For the record, Kevin O’Connell, who is not nominated tonight, holds the record for the most nominations without a win. O’Connell, also a sound guy, has been nominated 20 times but has yet to win an Oscar.
