70th Golden Globes - Discussion Thread (Winners in 1st Post)

But in other news, Jodie Foster kissed Meryl's ass backstage. Called what Meryl did not just acting but an experience, and said that she was the greatest actress ever.

I chuckled when they introduced Jeremy Renner as the star of Hansel and Gretel. They couldn't even mention his other critically acclaimed performances or even Hawkeye or Bourne. Wonder if it was just a cheap plug since it opens this month.

Did they actually? He's been in so many better films than that POS.

Yeah they did.

I would like to apologize on behalf of Mrs Lawrence for being too quick and witty ( with a 100 degree flu fever) for the average american audience.

Good write up! I agree on J-Lo. But I also liked Jessica Chastain's look. She looked like old Hollywood glamour.

[TLK]

I have always liked Hathaway but she has been clocking 10/10 on my Annoyancemeter recently. She needs to chill. Natalie Portman was in a similar situation a couple of years ago and she really handled it well.

[baumer]

I've always like Hathaway too, but I agree with TLK, she needs to chill a bit....her acceptance speech was a bit over the top.

i probably don't feel the same because i haven't had cable in yrs so i don't see the media blitz actors go through during awards season, i haven't seen any interviews with her , i'd have to go out of my way to do so ,and she's not on my short list of actors i stalk virtually or look up regularly, last time i saw her was in "TDKR" and before that when she hosted the oscars ? heck i didnt even know she was married until recently ...so yeah in her case i know the actress more than the person and anyway she hit the jackpot in my goodwill with her role as princess mia in princess diaries i watched those films a lot and she's done nothing since to change that opinion !

She is a very good actress and she deserved to win an Oscar for "Rachel getting Married" a few years ago but she is annoying me with her over-the-top underdog act.

[baumer]

Hathaway has been naked in three of four movies now. I don't think she has anymore self doubt.

[dashrendar44]

That's why her "Insecure underdog" act is getting annoying by now. She's been on my Most annoying actresses top ten list since that terrible Oscar hosting. Everything I've seen from her, what stroke me the most is how hard she's trying. Everything she does while acting, mannerisms, gestures, never come off as natural and genuine. I'm just seeing Anne Hathaway goofily pretend she's whatever she's trying to be. I can't take her seriously.

I like her immensely as an actress. That's not in question at all.

TOTALLY agree with this!

[The Futurist]

Her Oscar speech will be tough to sit through.

Anne Hathaway's Oscar Speech - O/U Melissa Leo levels of cringeworthiness?

[dashrendar44]

Over. Hathaway's speeches are the epitome of cringeworthiness at the time being. If such a award did exist, she would win hands down.

She should reference princess diaries again
