MOB: SAG Nominations tomorrow

I'd love to get to some more reviews, but this week simply has too much MOB. It's almost over, promise!

SAG nominations come out tomorrow which are much more valuable indications of acting awards than the Golden Globes, but they are the least dependable out of all the guilds. This is because, out of all the major guilds (PGA, DGA, WGA, SAG), they have the least percentage of Academy members. The Producers Guild of America, Writers Guild of America and Directors Guild of America work largely in film and television. The Screen Actor's Guild can include actors of all walks of life. Stage actors, extras, TV extras, stage extras, etc. So usually these don't correspond with the actual nominations 100%, but it is what it is. If you miss out here, it could be the kiss of death.
