SAG Awards!

CAROLINE: The SAG Awards were on Saturday night and if anything, they seemed to solidify who we already suspect will be the winners on Oscar night.

RYAN: Yeah, there were no real surprises. It’s shaping up to be a boring year at the Oscars.

CAROLINE: Except for Best Picture. I still have no clue how that’s gonna turn out, especially with ten nominees this year.

RYAN: Fine, but it seems like the acting categories are just set in stone now. It’s no fun.

CAROLINE: I’m totally over Sandra Bullock winning all the time this year. I love her, and she gives a great speech, but she’s no Meryl Streep. People need to get a grip come Oscar voting time.

RYAN: I’m thinking Sandy’s a lock, so you better get used to the idea of her as an Oscar winner.

CAROLINE: I just have to say one more time how pretentious the SAG Awards are. Those ridiculous speeches they do, like, “In fourth grade, I played a tree in Peter Pan, and I knew what I wanted to do with the rest of my life. I’m John Krasinski, and I’m an actor.”

RYAN: [laughs’ I know. But I think they dialed it down a little this year. At least people were making light of it at the beginning of the show.

CAROLINE: That combined with the fact that the awards are for “Male Actor” and “Female Actor” rather than just Actor and Actress is almost enough to make me never watch this awards show again. If only I didn’t care so much!

RYAN: Here’s a list of winners in the film categories:
