HISTORY:Tarantino is a two-time Skandie winner for Director, in 2003 (Kill Bill Vol. 1) and 2009 (Inglourious Basterds). He also placed 5th for Kill Bill Vol. 2 (2004) and 4th for Grindhouse (2007). He did not make the top 20 at all for Jackie Brown, which was not especially beloved at the time of its release.
Blunt has placed twice before in Supporting, for My Summer of Love (#10, 2005) and The Devil Wears Prada (#4, 2006). The other actors are all new.
Haneke's screenplays for The Piano Teacher (2002) and Caché (Hidden) (2005) placed 19th and 7th, respectively. He's been much more successful over the years in Best Director.

Noooo! I was hoping the lifeguard might be a nominee. I'm resigned to seeing one supportive gentleman from DJANGO in the Top 5 (probably Waltz), but there better not be more in my opinion.
If you swim ... I WILL PROTECT YOU!
Yes, I'd hoped for higher as well. The perfect Supporting turn, taking a largely functional role and making it indelible.
I hope my 30 bomb for QT's supporting performance vaults him into the top 5!
Seriously buds the vampire douche. I know I know the role requires him to be shitty. Good job I guess.
P.S. Waltz is a lead.
My #1 supporting actor and #1 scene both at #10. Oh, well.
Glad that Hoss made the top 10. She was magnificent from moment to moment.
I heartily endorse everything said by thanksbud so far in this combox. All the people on welfare are lazy.
Really wish that Honger had played here in time for me to include it.
Also the Diner scene in LOOPER is so NOT the best one in that movie. What it is is this guy starts losing the limbs and whatnot.
"What it is is this guy starts losing the limbs and whatnot."
A missed scene-naming opportunity.
Scene: Leper, Looper
I don't know if this is common, but check out the point differences in actor/actress categories. I would've expected them to be roughly equal.
Wait, I thought the things listed in these categories were supposed to get better as the numbers got lower.
This might be the lamest overall batch yet (Hoss is good although her face is kind of fucked up) (also I only got to see two of the three Hongers so I have not been able to join the lifeguard fan club).
Good job V-Mort with at least 60 points QT's uncanny Australian accent has the good shot of being justly rewarded. Also the second amendment applies to the personal use of assault weapons.
""What it is is this guy starts losing the limbs and whatnot."
Hellz yeah, don't know why I forgot to mention that. I also think it's better than the diner scene.
I call it: "Losing not life but limb(s)", LOOPER.
I don't know if this is common, but check out the point differences in actor/actress categories. I would've expected them to be roughly equal.
It is in fact common, and it doesn't suggest what you intuitively think it does (or at least what I intuitively think it does, which is that lower points = bad year). Generally speaking, the lower the points toward the bottom, the greater the enthusiasm for the folks at the top. As an extreme example, this year Screenplay #13 received more points than did Screenplay #6 (!) last year, because last year a huge, huge percentage of the allotted points in Screenplay went to just two films: A Separation and Margaret.
