GOLDEN GLOBES 2020 DISCUSSION THREAD | 1917 and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood win

[Eric Duncan]

 

Tonight is the true beginning of award season. For three hours, deserved and not-so-deserved wins will emerge, all the while a bunch of celebrities will be shitfaced drunk and Ricky Gervais will be an obnoxious asshole.

 

Will Joker take home the Gold? Will Taylor Swift get Cats its one and only award before the Razzies arrive? How many awards will Netflix win? Are the HFPA full of a bunch of sexists? (well, we all know the answer to that)

 

Y'all know the rules by this point. Be nice, be civil, have fun. Do anything stupid, you're getting warning points. Enjoy!

How isn't he?

 

 

[Avatree]

he's just funny and takes the piss out of people... how does that make him an obnoxious asshole?

[Europe is my playground]

Are we gonna see NO WAR WITH IRAN signs ?

[JohnnyGossamer]

Gervais is the only reason I might watch. 

 

Oscars going sans a host again this year?

[CJohn]

I actually only wake up at 9 AM tomorrow so I might just watch this live for the shits and giggles.

She's not announced among the presenters tonight but it would be everything if Natalie Portman came out on the stage to present Best Director again in a surprise twist. The caught-off-guard reactions of Nolan, GDT, Ridley Scott, etc. afterwards remains one of the funniest things I've seen at any awards show.

I think so. As safe and politically correct as it gets.

Haven't seen the show live in a couple of years but I wonder. Do they still do the mister and miss globe thing with famous actor's kids? That shit was always the most cringey segment for me. I feel like all involved every year looked embarrased by this bit.

Yes. I think Pierce Brosnan's kids are the ones handing out the awards to the stars this year.

Last year it was...I want to say either The Rock's daughter.

 

[SLAM!]

This is exciting! This is where I'll come to follow the Globes because I can't watch it live this time. I'm really hoping Adam Driver wins Actor.

[filmlover]

Might as well start sharing the red carpet pics happening right now.

Forget Gerwig and 2019...just wait for next season when it's quite possible that the top 3-4 movies at the box office are directed by women and STILL 5 men will be nominated for BD, and everyone will once again be up in arms, and half the season will be about that and the other half about Trump winning re-election.
