OSCAR WATCH: SAG Nominations


Rounding out this week's trifecta of nominations for the major televised precursor awards was the Screen Actors Guild, who once again proved that this is going to be a nailbiting awards season. Despite a rocky start with the critics, the actors rallied behind Martin McDonagh's "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri" in a big way, giving it 4 nominations, including a rare double in Supporting Actor. Meanwhile, "The Post" was nowhere to be found. As we head into the new year however, I'm sure that film will rebound as more Academy members see it. Here are this year's nominees for the SAG Awards:
