Extremely Late Obligatory Update About the SAG Awards

I said I would update everyone in regards to my progress getting through the SAG nominated films and television shows, and though it is now weeks after the winners accepted their awards, I am dutifully here to up-date, as I am trying to be better at follow-through (the key to any success).

I made it through a couple more shows, and through several films, carefully voted according to my heart, and... no one I really cared about, excepting Claire Foy, won anything.

My vote for Timothee Chalamet went to Gary Oldman, which, come on. Prestigious film, historical, and a character that everybody can look back on to do a comparative analysis and say "yep, that's pretty close." Chalamet''s work felt so much deeper, so daring, and complex.

Jessica Lange in Feud? Nope.

Holly Hunter in The Big Sick? Nope, again.

The cast of Mudbound for best ensemble? Again... uh-uh.

I DID vote for the cast of Wonder Woman for best stunt ensemble, Stirling K Brown, Claire Foy, and for Alexander Skarsgard, all of who took statues. And I am happy for them, and their deserving work. But this is not a very good record, if I were attempting to predict the winners.

Obligation Over. Good job, Joe.
