now repeat that for all of the categories.
BBM will sweep SAGS. Mark my words. Ledger is too young. Hoffman has too much weight behind his career at this point. You really think Jake could win? There's no way it will sweep the SAG. There are too few awards. I think it's possible that it doesn't get any of the individual awards but takes home Best Ensemble. It looks to take Ensemble anyway. And I'm actually favoring BBM taking Ensemble way more than any of the films. The collective acting in this movie surpasses any other this year. well you guys have more experience with this.. but i have been following the race this year since late november. i just have this feeling that PSH peaked and perhaps in any other year he would be locked for all wins. but heath has had this building buzz since venice that needs to reach a climax soon. I think his peak begins at the SAGs this weekend and ends with the oscar.
but i guess we shall know soon!

BBM will sweep SAGS. Mark my words. The only SAG member who has communicated their preference to me voted for PSM and he was gay btw. I know, only one person but you can't lump these people together Mr. Nasty. Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm the only person here who has actually heard from a SAG member who they're voting for. Unless you took a poll.

A larger issue at hand is that not all SAG members are AMPAS members. Nevertheless, I was commenting to your out of body conversation you were having. SAG members are voting for PSH. I have the proof.

Am I the only one who thinks BBM can walk away empty handed here? Supporting Actress is its strongest chance and Rachel can't be underestimated.

I'm thinking more and more that it could very well take Best ensemble because all four were incredibly strong performances. Especially, if Michelle doesn't win.

How could the most nominated and most popular movie go empty handed? Yeah I'd give you that my predicts are a best case scenerio but none at all? no way that happens.

I say the best supporting actor is still going to Clooney, but I picked Giamatti for reasons I've explained elsewhere.

It seems unlikely that Brokeback will be shutout. I see two possibilities: Brokeback getting Ensemble while not getting individual acting awards, or Brokeback getting only one individual award (most likely Michelle Williams) and losing out Ensemble.

Hehe, how can you say you think Clooney will get it, but you're predicting Giamatti? lol Giamatti won't get the same support across the board as George Clooney, and the actor's guild is doing their all for Giamatti right now to make up for past snubs.
When it comes to Oscar time, they'll go with Clooney. The SAG winner and Oscar winner don't always line up.
If Clooney wins, which is entirely possible, the SAG winner and Oscar winner will line up this year.

I don;t see how you can even consider BBM an ensemble. It has 4 characters of any real note, and two of em share a combined forty minutes or so of screen (being generous). I dunno. I just wouldn't even think about that movie when thinking of the years "ensemble films." Meh.

They have been substituting Best Ensemble as Best Picture. IN previous races, movies like The Birdcage, How to Make an American Quilt, Waking Ned Devine, Greek Wedding are examples of movies not really considered as Best Picture material but their ensemble qualities are rewarded.
At least this year, there's a couple of true ensemble pieces (Crash, Good Night and Good Luck...) _________________A hot man once wrote: Urgh, I have to throw out half my underwear because it's too tight.

Best Acting by an Ensemble and Best Acting Ensemble could mean two slightly different thing if you really want to get into it.
But christian's right in that they regard Best Ensemble, more or less, like Best Picture.

Claire Danes .... Julie Morton
Diane Keaton .... Sybil Stone
Rachel McAdams .... Amy Stone
Dermot Mulroney .... Everett Stone
Craig T. Nelson .... Kelly Stone
Sarah Jessica Parker .... Meredith Morton
Luke Wilson .... Ben Stone

If it wasn't for the mixed reviews, The Family Stone would be nominated for Supporting Actress, Ensemble and probably Supporting Actor... 
One question, just for comparison sake: did Kevin Spacey win the SAG in 2000?
EDIT: I just noticed that American Beauty almost sweeped this, winning Ensemble, Actor and Actress (Swank was beaten by Benning!  )... BUT, The English Patient lost all of the 4 nods... I don't really know what to think..
