Well, League Participants, this is a big week. Two weeks ago we had the nominations announced for the Film Independent Spirit Awards. That was preamble. That was warm ups. This week things get kicked into high gear. Lots of nominations this week and lots of points on the board for the League.
This week brings up the nominations for the Critic's Choice Awards (announced yesterday), the Golden Globes (announced today), and the Screen Actor's Guild Awards (announced on Thursday). Be sure to check back on the blog Friday night for up-to-date take on the current standings.
Here is the scoreboard as of today, including the Golden Globe Nominations:
Name / Nominations / Points
Danny Sarnowski / 20 / 40
Paul Hogseth / 11 / 22
The Dekkers / 11 / 22
Ann Sarnowski / 9 / 18
Jake & Rachel / 7 / 14
Erin & Steve / 7 / 14
Scott Engroff / 7 /14
Dan Pavlovich / 6 / 12
Jimmy Gordon / 4 / 8
It's interesting to see the scoreboard start to shore up. As I reviewed each studio's picks, it's great to see the diversity of choices people made this year. Of course, some of you REALLY hung your hat on a specific film. If The Lovely Bones or An Education really starts to turn the corner, a few of you will be VERY happy.
This week is also a big week at the box office. For those of you who have the time and the inclination to get to a theater, there is literally something for everyone in the next two weeks. Between now and Christmas the following movies are opening or opening wider:
Up In The Air
Invictus
AVATAR
It's Complicated
Sherlock Holmes
Precious
Nine
So, lots of choices and all of them have been nominated for at least one award by one of the groups so far. Each film could be a great entertainment and good research for the "big show" in March.
Anyway, that's it for tonight. Check back on Friday for the Screen Actor's Guild nominations and to see how things move around. Good luck everyone!
