Skyfall, Adele & Oscar's History with James Bond

I've heard some raving about the Adele song ("Skyfall") for Sam Mendes latest turn on the James Bond franchise. I agree that the song performed by Adele and written by Adele and Paul Epworth is a great Bond song.

But of course, you never know exactly what will happen in the Academy Award category for song.

But thinking of Skyfall, I thought I would pull the data regarding the Bond franchise and Oscar nomination/win history, confirming my suspicion that it's been a long time since a Bond film has been nominated for an Oscar. 

In fact, if you look at the history outlined below you will only see 2 Oscar wins ever, one for sound effects (Golfinger, 1964) and the other for Visual Effects (Thunderball, 1965).

A handful of Oscar nominations have gone out, and the song category has seen Bond films show up 4 times.

But there has been no love for Bond at the Oscars since the 1981 song nomination from For Your Eyes Only. 

Can Adele do something that the past 11 films spanning two decades have not been able to do...get an Oscar nomination? 

And can Adele do something that has never happened...an Oscar win in the song category for a Bond film?

The James Bond film history with Oscar is below as well as a video with the song. Listen, while you read.
