SAG Awards Predictions

Tonight is the 17th annual Screen Actors Guild Awards. I will (probably) live-blog the show. Here are my picks for winners. The only categories I left out are the stunt cast and miniseries/tv-movie categories, because it would be presumptious of me to pretend I knew. Who I would pick is in bold, who I think will win is in italics.
