What do you mean 'win' this guild ???
For me if we win Best Ensemble =TD we have WON the most impt award ! :)
will- 01-04-2007
Of course it'd be an important win. But I'm saying there's not much chance of that happening now. Babel, Dreamgirls and Little Miss Sunshine all have three nominations.
will- 01-04-2007
BTW, the eligible actors for the ensemble nomination are:
Anthony Anderson,
Alec Baldwin,
Matt Damon,
Leonardo DiCaprio,
Vera Farmiga,
Jack Nicholson,
Martin Sheen,
Mark Wahlberg,
Ray Winstone
Congratulations to all of them. :)

Posted list of eligble actors in earlier post
I still say we take the "Ensemble" !!!! :)
Scream- 01-04-2007
Actually a lot of people still predict TD to win Ensemle. IMO Dreamgirls and Little Miss Sunshine are not going to win over TD, and the only possibility is Babel. BUT, Babel too is isn't as strong a contender to win Ensemble as it was prior to the announcement of the noms due to Brad's snub, whom most predicted to get a nomination.
will- 01-04-2007
Sorry, peanut.. just saw it.
One way to win ensemble would be if today's snub of Nicholson and Wahlberg is really felt by the members, and they decide to vote for the group, in order to compensate for this mess.

Like Scream really feel that "TD" is a shoe in for Best Ensemble........
I think it is BECAUSE they are going to vote "TD" for Best Ensemble that they didn't feel the need to take up all of supporting category slots with the actors...feel by voting it Best Ensemble you cover all the bases ...
And come 'Oscar time'..I think you will see DiCaprio for lead "TD" and Nicholson for supporting "TD" and posssibly Wahlberg too :)

BAFTA early nods from Variety
Not sure what happened with the list for male acting nods or directors or other categories....
This is all Variety had listed in the article
'Casino,' 'Queen' lead pack
British Academy Film Awards announces longlist
By ADAM DAWTREY
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'Casino Royale' is one of the films at the top of the longlist.
LONDON -- The two most commercially successful British movies of the year, "Casino Royale" and "The Queen," have emerged at the top of the longlists for the British Academy Film Awards, with 14 entries apiece.
They are closely followed by a more eclectic bunch of multilingual pics, including "Pan's Labyrinth," "Babel," "Children of Men" and "The Departed," which all have 13 nods.
"The Last King of Scotland" and "Little Miss Sunshine" picked up 12, and "Volver" and "Dreamgirls" tied on 10.
This is the result of the first round of BAFTA voting, when the choices are narrowed down to 15 contenders in each category. The five nominees will be selected in the second round, which ends Jan. 12.
But given the number of films in the longlists, it's the omissions that are as significant as the inclusions. So the surprise news is that "Dreamgirls" didn't make the cut for best film, despite its plentiful entries in other sections.
The other entries on the best film list include "Bobby" (eight nods), "The Devil Wears Prada" (nine), "Flags of Our Fathers" (eight), "The History Boys (five), "Notes on a Scandal" (nine) and "United 93" (seven).
"The Devil Wears Prada" was the only best film entry not to make the list for best director, where it was replaced by "Apocalypto" (nine nods).
There was no place for "Factory Girl" in any of the lists, despite the strenous efforts of the Weinstein Co. to qualify the movie for BAFTA, and to courier last-minute screeners out to voters at great expense.
Nor was there any recognition for such critically-acclaimed low-budget Brit pics as "Red Road" and "London to Brighton," which didn't send out screeners.
The acting longlists also throw up some BAFTA quirks, with voters often refusing to follow guidance from distribs on which roles should be regarded as supporting.
So Cate Blanchett is pitched against her "Notes on a Scandal" co-star Judi Dench in the main actress category, where she also faces Emma Thompson from "Stranger Than Fiction," Jodie Whittaker from "Venus," Juliette Binoche from "Breaking and Entering" and Eva Green from "Casino Royale," all arguably supporting performance

Congratulations to Leonardo and for the ensemble nod as well. josephc, you should have had more faith,LOL, than to predict no noms whatsoever especially if you liked both his perfomances as much as you claim. You either have very little faith in Leonardo and/or believe in the naysayers too much.

Virgomoon,
the SAG awards will be shown live on TNT and TBS at 8 PM (ET/PT), on Sunday, January 28th. I think I also heard during the nominations that they're going to be shown live on the internet as well. Did anyone hear the same thing?
margot122- 01-04-2007
So many awards!
will - don't know about SAG being live on the net but please post if you hear anymore.
We should get Globes and BAFTA down here on TV.
Congratulations Leo et al !
will- 01-05-2007
I don't have a link, but someone posted at the OW forums the BAFTA lists.
Matt and Leo made it for Actor, Jack and Mark for Supporting Actor. As noted previously the film was also featured in Director and Film. The other 7 nominations are probably in the screenplay and technical categories.
