Are Robert Redford and Leonardo DiCaprio really sunk at Oscars after SAG snubs?
Quote:
Robert Redford ("All is Lost") and Leonardo DiCaprio ("The Wolf of Wall Street") were among the surprise omissions at the SAG nominations this morning. Does this mean they've lost any chance at Oscar? Tom O'Neil says no, but I think there's cause for them to be concerned.

SAG recently merged with its sister union AFTRA, and that has changed the makeup of the organization. Could that be responsible for last year's disparity between SAG and Oscar nominees? The two groups only agreed on 14 of the nominees, fewer than usual, and Christoph Waltz ("Django Unchained") became only the second actor to win Oscar without being nominated first at SAG. (Marcia Gay Harden in "Pollock" is the only other example.)

It's impossible to know if the nominations would have been drastically different without the additional AFTRA members in the mix, or which actors in particular might have been helped or hurt. Who is voting is a big piece of the puzzle, but the more important question is why more of them didn't vote for Redford or DiCaprio.

"The Wolf of Wall Street" didn't start screening until a week or two ago. Though it did screen for SAG, did enough of the nominating committee get to it in time? It's possible its snubs are evidence that voters disliked the film, but it could be an anomaly like "Django Unchained" last year. Eventually "Django" rebounded at the Golden Globes, BAFTAs, and Oscars, where it won Supporting Actor and Original Screenplay. If "Wolf" is well represented at later events, DiCaprio could get back in the mix, but it'll need strong support from other groups.
This doesn't sound very promising.

Obviously they snubbed him..

But we have to say that they didn't see the movie because they gave it to them too late...

Screen Actors Guild Awards Nominations 2014: Biggest Movie Category Snubs! | E! Online
Quote:
Leonardo DiCaprio scored major buzz for his starring role in The Wolf of Wall Street—but it didn't translate to a nomination in that category. Overlooked last year for his supporting role in Django Unchained, he was once again shut out of this year's ceremony.
I forgot he didn't get it last year either.

I guess it's an end of the year thing?

Hopefully we'll have reason to celebrate tomorrow

I think it's because the movie wasn't ready...

I hope so

Yes.. Even the BAFTA.
You know, actually I would love to see a BAFTAnomination more than the Oscars.. Also because we already know that the Oscars are going to snub him again...
