SNUBBED: 'Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close'

And this is bad for Scott Rudin. At the risk of burying 'Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close' too early, back-to-back snubs from the SAG awards and the Golden Globes certainly don't help its awards chances. If 'Extremely Loud' can't get love from the lesser voting bodies, how does it expect to receive Oscar's warm embrace? Only Stephen Daldry's mojo (three Best Director nominations in three films) can save this one now.
