Do you think the SAG Awards are a good indicator of Oscar winners?

Yes, all those academies and guilds tend to vote similarly.

No, there's always one or two surprises.

I don't know, I don't watch awards shows.

The SAG awards were saucier than usual Sunday night, with Betty White flirting with her naked trophy, Colin Firth revealing he used his SAG card to pick up women and Natalie Portman issuing an expletive upon winning the best actress award.

The Daily News brings you the top 10 moments from the 17th annual Screen Actors Guild Awards:

10. Steve Buscemi's "Untouchables" memory: The 53-year-old actor harked back to an audition for "The Untouchables" that he bombed in 1987 after winning outstanding actor in a drama series for "Boardwalk Empire" He thanked casting director Ellen Lewis "for having faith after my awful audition 20-something years ago when she brought me in to see Brian De Palma." He then proceeded to imitate himself grumbling and then saying, "Thank you."

9. Vintage celebrity ads: Dennis Haysbert paid tribute to the actors who have appeared in ads on TV, introducing clips including "Graduate-era Dustin Hoffman who sang the praises of a hollow-sounding car he tapped while Ken Jeong did a sexy dance while holding a bottle of Pepto-Bismol.

8. Melissa Leo on her "man" trophy: "Thank you, girls, for helping me get a man I can bring home tonight!" she yelled to the actresses who played her daughter in the film. After winning best supporting actress for "The Fighter," she thanked costume designer Mark Bridges, though she admitted that when she saw them on the hanger, she thought, "Boy I don't think so."

Tim Conway's intro for Ernest Borgnine: After appearing to miss his cue, the 77-year-old actor (and Borgnine's co-star in "McHale's Navy) scooted onto the stage to present Ernest Borgnine with the lifetime achievement award.
