Sag noms 2011, a huge win for The Help, and, as expected, a slew of noms for The Descendents and The Artist.
SAG is not playing around giving noms to the most popular movies, knowing that it's usually a huge predictor for upset Oscar noms and wins. More pretentious bull shit, but important nonetheless.
Many may be surprised they left out Michael Fassbinder, who had a remarkable year, and Albert Brooks in Drive, and I personally thought Andy Serkis in Rise of the Planet of the Apes would get more press, especially with the film coming out on DVD/BluRay.
Glenn Close scored a nom for Albert Nobbs, and Leonardo Dicaprio got his for J. Edgar. Two films that did pretty poorly critically actually making comeback with these nominations, although them winning is far from a reality yet.
Best Cast Noms went to The Artist, Bridesmaids, The Descendents, The Help and Midnight in Paris. Bridesmaids is, of course, the upset pick, though look for The Help to take down the main one.
Those crazy actors always predict the correct winners, bar some absurdity (Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow).
Hugo fans may be disappointed that their film was shut out, but that can all change tomorrow with the Globes nominations!!!
See ya then!
