"August: Osage County" gets threeActors are large bloc of Oscar voters so SAGs are examined for Academy Award forecasts

(CNN) -- The 20th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards nominations were announced Wednesday morning, and as one of the leading awards show salvos in what is expected to be a competitive season, what didn't get nominated was as notable as what did.

Robert Redford was left out. So was anybody from "Inside Llewyn Davis." "Captain Phillips" missed out on a best ensemble nomination, and "The Wolf of Wall Street" came up completely empty.

A number of films did get good news.

"12 Years a Slave" was nominated for four awards -- best ensemble, best male actor (Chewitel Ejiofor), best supporting male actor (Michael Fassbender) and best supporting female actor (Lupita Nyong'o).

Though "12 Years" has narrowly missed topping year-end best-of lists so far -- and has even been left out entirely on some -- it's been considered an Academy Award shoo-in since its release in October, and the SAGs do nothing to stall its momentum.

On the other hand, "August: Osage County," the sprawling comedy-drama based on the Tracy Letts play, has been generally ignored on critics' best-of lists. ("Good but not great" is the consensus so far. ) But it also did well at the SAG nominations, earning three nods, for ensemble, lead female actor Meryl Streep and supporting female actor Julia Roberts.

"Dallas Buyers Club" also did well, earning nominations for ensemble, lead actor Matthew McConaughey and supporting actor Jared Leto.

"Lee Daniels' The Butler" and "American Hustle" complete the list of nominees for best ensemble, the SAG Awards' closest equivalent to best picture. "The Butler" also earned nods for stars Forest Whitaker (best actor) and Oprah Winfrey (female supporting actor). Jennifer Lawrence added to "Hustle's" haul with a female supporting actor nomination.

And "Captain Phillips," though snubbed in the ensemble category, picked up nominations for star Tom Hanks and a surprise nod for supporting actor Barkhad Abdi. "Phillips" is the film debut for Abdi, a Somali immigrant who plays a ship hijacker.

But there are a number of Oscar favorites that couldn't get into the ring.

"Her," the Spike Jonze work about a man who develops a relationship with a computer operating system, was completely shut out. So was "The Wolf of Wall Street," the new Martin Scorsese film, despite excellent early buzz.

Redford, whose one-man show in "All Is Lost" has made him a favorite for best actor, was left off SAG's list. So were Oscar Isaac (from the Coen brothers' latest, "Inside Llewyn Davis," which came up completely empty), Michael B. Jordan ("Fruitvale Station") and "American Hustle's" Amy Adams and Christian Bale.

The most unlikely nominees were focused in the supporting actor category. Besides Abdi, Daniel Bruhl picked up a nomination for Ron Howard's mostly overlooked "Rush," and the late James Gandolfini was honored for his work in the comedy "Enough Said."

Though the actors' wing represents the biggest bloc of Oscar voters, the SAG Awards aren't always a great bellwether of best picture success at the Academy Awards.

Though "Argo," last year's best picture, also won the SAG Awards' ensemble honor, the 18th annual SAGs went with "The Help" over "The Artist" and the 16th annual awards tapped "Inglorious Basterds" over "The Hurt Locker."

The picks for actor and actress, on the other hand, are much closer to the academy's selections. Last year's SAGs went to Daniel Day-Lewis and Lawrence; the year before honored Jean Dujardin (though Viola Davis lost the Oscar to Streep); and 2010 SAGs went to Colin Firth and Natalie Portman.

Does it mean anything? Thursday may muddy the waters further, when the Hollywood Foreign Press Association announces the Golden Globe nominations.

TNT and TBS will air the 20th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards on January 18.

US revokes award for Egyptian woman due to tweets

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama administration has revoked the award it planned to give an Egyptian activist who fought against "virginity tests" on female protesters but whose Twitter account included anti-American and anti-Semitic comments.

Spokeswoman Victoria Nuland says the State Department won't honor Samira Ibrahim because of the tweets. Some of the tweets praised attacks on U.S. diplomatic installations and against Israeli civilians in Bulgaria.

The department named Ibrahim among recipients of a women's award to be presented Friday by Secretary of State John Kerry and first lady Michelle Obama. But officials said Thursday they needed time to study her Twitter account, which she says was hacked.

Ibrahim is defending herself on Twitter, saying she didn't attack any religion. But she refuses to apologize to what she calls the "Zionist lobby in America."

'Argo' ensemble wins SAG Award

Nominees:
Argo: WINNER
The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel
Les Misérables
Lincoln
Silver Linings Playbook

Anthony Breznican predicted:
Should Win: Daniel Day-Lewis' work is so uncanny it threatens to overshadow the great work of his many co-stars, but Lincoln is no one-man-show.

Will Win: On the other hand, Silver Linings Playbook is the film where most of its stars are on equal footing, making it the truest ensemble of the bunch. It's a showcase for the group, rather than one single stand-out performer.

Worth Noting: Many consider this SAG's version of the Best Picture award, and voters may think of it the same way, voting for the movie they liked the most, rather than the cast they liked the most. If Argo wins, it will be a sure sign that the thriller is on a path to Best Picture at the Academy Awards, despite (or perhaps TO spite) the snubbing of director Ben Affleck.

Editor's note: An earlier version of this text mistakenly listed Silver Linings Playbook as the ''Should Win" selection.
