Final SAG Predictions
The Screen Actors Guild announces their nominations tomorrow morning. Tommy Lee Jones could really use a nomination right about now for "In the Valley of Elah", and I think that he will end up with two tomorrow. Emile Hirsch and Hal Holbrook could also use some love. This may the time where the fifth Best Supporting Actress Oscar nominee becomes clear (Blanchett, Ronan, Ryan, and Swinton seem likely choices), but I have a feeling that whoever gets in here will not make it in at the Oscars and be replaced by someone altogether new. I think that like 2004's "Closer", "Charlie Wilson's War" will be completely snubbed here and then only Philip Seymour Hoffman will bounce back come Oscar time. Best Actress is very important for Laura Linney if she really is going to be a contender, and she may easily replace Keira Knightley. James McAvoy is also vulnerable, and this could be the place that solidifies Viggo Mortensen. I obviously hope that George Clooney and Denzel Washington do not show up here and that this marks an end to their Oscar bids. If "The Great Debaters" makes it in for Best Ensemble, I will be furious (though, again, I have not yet seen the film). I am really pulling for the cast of "Gone Baby Gone" to make it in. Be here tomorrow for reactions.
