How will Multiple Movies/Roles affect the Oscar Nominations or Oscar Wins?

Thinking of people like George Clooney - Syriana and Good Luck, and Good Night or whether some movies will have too many Oscar possibilites, like Munich, that it will lose out of some.

I understand the first half but could you explain the Munich portion?

Isn't Munich suppose to have so many great roles that it is still up in the air, who will get nominated.

Maybe also Syriana on this part?

Ah, I understand. I didn't connect Oscar possibilites to acting noms.

That's always the risk you run when you have strong ensembles. Yet another reason why the AMPAS needs to push through a Best Ensemble category. Too bad it wouldn't be retroactive, imagine how many great ensembles would have won over the past 25 years.

Only will help George Clooney this year.

Just wondring > In all categories?

Actor
Syriana (2005) .... Bob Barnes
Good Night, and Good Luck. (2005) .... Fred Friendly

Director
Good Night, and Good Luck. (2005)

Writer (screenplay)
Good Night, and Good Luck. (2005)

No. Will help in Director and Picture. Screenplay is a lock for a nomination.

How about Terrence Howard?
