'Tis the season for awards...

'Tis the season for awards and the ads aimed at
those whose votes count.  Companies that would
benefit from the wins run these ads as part of
their publicity campaigns.

>From it's ads for HPCoS, below is Warner Bros.'
list of people to be considered for awards (such
as the Academy Awards/Oscars, the Golden Globes,
BAFTA, etc).

What I don't get is just WHOM is Daniel Radcliffe
"supporting."  He DOES play the title character
after all and should be considered a lead actor,
not supporting...even if he doesn't have much of
a chance in that category, it's the proper one
for him.

In contrast, Warner Bros. suggests in another
"For Your Consideration" ad (this one for
SCOOBY-DOO), that voters consider
nominating/voting for Matthew Lillard (Shaggy)
for Best Performance by an Actor in a leading
role, comedy or musical.
