It's that time again, and it looks like Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark is going to sweep this year! JK!
Okay, so maybe the doomed-from-the-start super hero production isn't getting any Tony love this year, but some other unorthodox choices have gotten some nominations this year.
The South Park creators' Book of Mormon topped the nominations with a whopping 14 noms! Wowsa!
Other notable mentions include The Scottsboro Boys with 12 noms and Anything Goes with 9.
Should be inneresting to see if Mormon dominates this year. We've def been hearing overwhelmingly positive things!
Check out the full list of Tony nominations AFTER THE JUMP!
