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

[riczhang]

Can we just not talk about the TV categories? I'm pretty sure they just threw darts at a board to figure out the nominees. They give even less of a shit about those than we do.

At least they FINALLY wised up and gave Breaking Bad a drama nod. Though the Mad Men snub in favour of The Newsroom is probably the worst nomination here this year.

Well if they give an award to poehler or louis ck i will be happy

CK by far the least famous so he's prob 5th most likely to win this time. At least people like the Globes and SAG are finally giving him a little recognition. Though I'd bet HFPA don't even watch Louie and just gave him a nod because of all the emmys he was nominated for last year.

Michelle Dockery for Downton. I like watching this one for the fashions really. Chill awards show. Everybody seems to have fun. Party time!

Hopefully Sherlock gets something.

[fishstick]

They nominated Smash? :rofl: :rofl:That show`s fuckin terrible. It`s worth hate-watching, though, because it really gives you ammo for online bashing. otherwise,no.

I’m going to start with red wine. I’m going to have one glass just to cool my nerves. And then I’m going to get to the after-party and it’s going to be shots, shots, shots, shots, shots! No, I’m kidding. I’m probably going to stick to wine and beer.

I'm gonna take a shot every time they show George clooney or Ben Affleck in camera.

These 'awards' are little more than shameless Oscar predictors, so they'll 99% award Lincoln and Les Mis. Of course, if this were next week, SLP would win Best Comedy/Musical.

Fantastic show. But everybody is leaving it. They're killing off too many folks for a period romance drama. I like "The Hour" too. Wish Ben W. would have gotten a nomination for it.

Pretty much.

They all vote online I'm fairly sure. But, it's ranked ballots last time I checked. There's only about 90 of them though. (And it's also why you get ties more often here, especially back when the group was even smaller)

I don't think they're as bad as Critics Choice. I only just caught up with their show today. It was atrocious.

The Hour is better than Downton for sure. I love the show but did you see the most recent Christmas episode? I kinda hated it ... Edited January 13, 2013 by CoolioD1
