2015/2016 ‘Who Got What’ List: SAG, Golden Globe, BFCA & BAFTA

It’s time for the annual Who Got What? list of performances that hit the major precursors: Screen Actors Guild (SAG), Golden Globe, BFCA and BAFTA. Inevitably, one or more of these folks that hit even all four is likely to miss out on an Oscar nomination in favor of a late-breaking performance with momentum or possibly voter fatigue. Last year it happened to Jake Gyllenhaal (Nightcrawler), who nailed all four and wound up seeing his Oscar nomination go to Bradley Cooper (American Sniper), who came in with zero.

Here’s the list so far, we just have BAFTA to add on January 8th, 2016 when they announce their nominations. We’ll update the list then.
