I expected Trolls over Sing, but NOT over Dory! but hey, good for Zucchini. I'm not even sure the globes voters even watched many of the animated films. Sing getting nominated feels so wrong. Shame about Beckinsale getting snubbed in favor of Lily Collins though. Also not surprised that Silence wasn't nominated. They didn't send screeners in time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything he's done since Blue Jasmine has been ignored completely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he cares. He tends to promote the major supporting actor of his film then he does himself, although Sully had no other major potential Oscar nominated in it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, it felt like he was more out and about during awards season this year than Captain Phillips three years ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well unlike BOS or Captain Philips, he didn't have a major supporting actor to "pimp" (Eckhart wasn't getting nominated, heh), so he probably decide to promote himself for a change.

Animated films are generally looked down upon or even ignored by voters, so I'd say you're probably right. Shame though!

DeeCee Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 5 hours ago, Nova said: Im shocked. I knew Reynolds would get a nom but not the movie itself. It's the first super hero movie to be nominated for a best picture at the Golden Globes. And I think Reynolds is the second actor (behind Ledger) to get a nod for a super hero movie. So it is surprising. Bonus scene for the First Anniversary Edition. "Award Season". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 (edited) I'm still laughing over the Lily Collins nomination. I feel like this was her last shot at avoiding spending the rest of her career in obscurity (and of course the movie was miserable box office flop so...).

filmlover Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Also: that Simon Helberg nomination. Wut. These are the most lol-worthy nominations from them since six years ago with that infamous The Tourist debacle (which they will never top).

By itself, all that means is that enough watched My Life as a Zucchini and put it as their favourite to make top five based on number of votes. Voting for Globes nominations does use ranked ballots but is essentially FPTP, with second choices etc. used only as tie-breakers. In that system, a film that is seen by a few voters who really like it can be nominated, but can also be excluded by a film seen by more voters even though it's less well-liked on average. Sing sneaking in (overall reception has been quite weak compared to many of the contenders of this year) is suggestive to me that it was watched by a much larger number of members than the smaller films it beat. Also, the Globes have a history of nominating quite a few animated films that didn't have very strong reception overall and didn't make the cut at the Oscars, which has a very rigorous system for nominations that requires participating members to have seen two-thirds of the submissions and uses average rating rather than FPTP or even ranked ballots. The simplest explanation is that not many members are watching the lesser-known animated films. If The Red Turtle also made it as well as Zucchini, I'd be a lot more willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.

MovieMan89 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 (edited) The Globes don't tend to go for anime, so that explains the Red Turtle/Your Name snubs. But no Dory in favor of the Zucchini thingamajig is pretty shocking. Good for Deadpool. I wasn't a huge fan but its nomination helps break down genre barriers at these awards a little bit so I'm for it. Now if only the Globes had any actual prestige these days...
