Thoughts - Richard Gere??? THAT changes everything!

Best Actress - Drama
Jessica Chastain - Zero Dark Thirty
Marion Cotillard - Rust and Bone

Best Picture - Comedy or Musical
The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel
Les Miserables

Bradley Cooper - Silver Linings Playbook
Hugh Jackman - Les Miserables
Bill Murray - Hyde Park on Hudson
Ewan McGregor - Salmon Fishing in Yemen

Amy Adams - The Master
Sally Field - Lincoln

Thoughts - Kidman again! Perhaps this is the list that will transfer over to the Oscars?

Golden Globe Predictions

The Golden Globes are Sunday night so here are my predictions on who will win!

Best Movie - Drama
The Descendants
The Help
Hugo
The Ides of March
Moneyball
War Horse
Who Will Win - I'm going to do a little wishful thinking and say Hugo. But don't count out The Descendants or The Help!

Best Movie - Comedy / Musical
50/50
The Artist
Bridesmaids
Midnight in Paris
My Week With Marilyn
Who Will Win - If The Artist doesn't win I will be shocked even though Bridesmaids is the only really outright laugh out loud comedy listed there.

Best Actor - Drama
George Clooney - The Descendants
Leonardo DiCaprio - J. Edgar
Michael Fassbender - Shame
Ryan Gosling - The Ides of March
Brad Pitt - Moneyball
Who Will Win - Did you see the HOTNESS of this category? Honey, we ALL win! (But, seriously, Clooney).

Best Actress - Drama
Glenn Close - Albert Nobbs
Viola Davis - The Help
Rooney Mara - The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
Meryl Streep - The Iron Lady
Tilda Swinton - We Need to Talk About Kevin
Who Will Win - When in doubt, always go with Meryl!

Best Actor - Comedy / Musical
Jean Dujardin - The Artist
Brendan Gleeson - The Guard
Joseph Gordon-Levitt - 50/50
Ryan Gosling - Crazy Stupid Love
Owen Wilson - Midnight in Paris
Who Will Win - If Dujardin doesn't win, I will be shocked.

Best Actress - Comedy / Musical
Jodie Foster - Carnage
Charlize Theron - Young Adult
Kristin Wiig - Bridesmaids
Michelle Williams - My Week With Marilyn
Kate Winslet - Carnage
Who Will Win - Look, Michelle's performance as Marilyn Monroe was my favorite female performance of the year. I am 85% sure she is going to win an Oscar in a month. But given the crazy, unpredictable nature of the Golden Globes, part of me really, really, really wants Wiig to win!

Best Supporting Actor
Kenneth Branagh - My Week With Marilyn
Albert Brooks - Drive
Jonah Hill - Moneyball
Viggo Mortensen - A Dangerous Method
Christopher Plummer - Beginners
Who Will Win - Plummer!!

Best Supporting Actress
Berenice Bejo - The Artist
Jessica Chastain - The Help
Janet McTeer - Albert Nobbs
Octavia Spencer - The Help
Shailene Woodley - The Descendants
Who Will Win - I'm sensing there is going to be some ridiculous level of love for The Artist so I'm kind of leaning with Bejo. This category seems wide open though and I'm personally pulling for either Chastain or Woodley.

Best Director
Woody Allen - Midnight in Paris
George Clooney - The Ides of March
Michel Hazanavicius - The Artist
Alexander Payne - The Descendants
Martin Scorsese - Hugo
Who Will Win - Again, it depends on the love of The Artist. I could see Payne winning here, but I'm going with Hazanavicius. I think the Globes are going to love The Artist.

Octavia Spencer in The Help
Jessica Chastain in The Help
Janet McTeer in Albert Nobbs

Best Director
Martin Scorsese for Hugo
George Clooney for The Ides of March
Michel Hazanavicius for The Artist
Alexander Payne for The Descendants
Woody Allen for Midnight in Paris
Thoughts - My love for Marty vs. my love for Woody. What is a girl to do??

Random thoughts on TV nominees:
American Horror Story as a Best Drama nominee... really?
New Girl nominated for Best Comedy!
The best actor on television, Bryan Cranston, will hopefully win! (But no Kyle Chandler for Friday Night Lights).
Zooey's inevitable Best Actress in a Comedy win will be adorable and annoying, probably.

Golden Globe Predictions

Maybe it's because I've been forced to watch football every Sunday for the past four months, but I am even more excited than normal for Sunday's Golden Globes Awards. Pretty girls in pretty dresses! Handsome men looking sexy in suits! Plus, this year was the best year for movies since 2007. There are three movies heavily nominated that I truly LOVED this year. Here are my predictions...

Best Motion Picture - Drama
Black Swan
The Fighter
Inception
The King's Speech
The Social Network
Who WILL Win - I feel like everything is done to The Social Network and The King's Speech. I feel like the Globes are going to go with The King's Speech on this one though.
Who MIGHT Win - Read Above.
Who SHOULD Win - This category includes all three of the movies I loved this year. Plus, I liked The Fighter a whole lot also. I really wouldn't be upset if anything but The King's Speech won. However, The Social Network is too good to pass by.

Best Actress - Drama
Halle Berry in Frankie and Alice
Nicole Kidman in Rabbit Hole
Jennifer Lawrence in Winter's Bone
Natalie Portman in Black Swan
Michelle Williams in Blue Valentine

Who SHOULD Win - Portman.

Best Actor - Drama
Jesse Eisenberg in The Social Network
Colin Firth in The King's Speech
James Franco in 127 Hours
Ryan Gosling in Blue Valentine
Mark Wahlberg in The Fighter
Who WILL Win - Firth.
Who MIGHT Win - There could be a Franco upset... but I doubt it.

Best Movie - Comedy or Musical
Alice in Wonderland
Burlesque
The Kids Are All Right
Red
The Tourist
Who WILL Win - The Kids Are All Right, because it's the best out of this crappy group of nominees.

Who SHOULD Win - Easy A... oh, wait.

Best Actress - Comedy or Musical
Annette Bening in The Kids Are All Right
Anne Hathaway in Love and Other Drugs
Angelina Jolie in The Tourist
Julianne Moore in The Kids Are All Right

Best Actor - Comedy or Musical
Johnny Depp in Alice in Wonderland
Johnny Depp in The Tourist
Paul Giamatti in Barney's Version
Jake Gyllenhaal in Love and Other Drugs
Kevin Spacey in Casino Jack
Who WILL Win - Johnny Depp... but for which one, is the question... My money says Alice in Wonderland.

Who WILL Win - Leo will take it home.

Elisabeth Moss in Mad Men
Piper Perabo in Covert Affairs
Katey Sagal in Sons of Anarchy

Best Actor - Drama
Steve Buscemi in Boardwalk Empire
Bryan Cranston in Breaking Bad
Michael C. Hall in Dexter
Jon Hamm in Mad Men
Hugh Laurie in House

Golden Globe Nominations

Best Picture - Drama
Black Swan
The Fighter
Inception
The King's Speech
The Social Network
Thoughts - My two favorites of the year are here (The Social Network and Inception). I'm pretty stoked to see Black Swan and The Fighter. The King's Speech looks, probably, like the most boring movie of all time. No love for Shutter Island!

Best Actress - Drama
Halle Berry - Frankie and Alice
Nicole Kidman - Rabbit Hole
Jennifer Lawrence - Winter's Bone
Natalie Portman - Black Swan
Michelle Williams - Blue Valentine
Thoughts - Go Natalie!!!!

Best Actor - Drama
Jesse Eisenberg- The Social Network
Colin Firth - The King's Speech
James Franco - 127 Hours
Ryan Gosling - Blue Valentine
Mark Wahlberg - The Fighter
Thoughts - No love for DiCaprio this year who gave not one, but TWO amazing performances (maybe the awesomeness of each canceled each other out??). Also, what strikes me about both of these lead acting categories is how very young it skews. Who are the oldest people here? Kidman, Berry, Firth? They are hardly ready to join AARP. And finally, go JESSE!!!! (Not only does he give the best performance of the year, imho, but also you just know his acceptance speech would be equal parts adorable and awkward).

Best Picture - Comedy or Musical
Alice in Wonderland
Burlesque
The Kids Are All Right
Red
The Tourist
Thoughts - Really??? This is the best they could do??? I mean, I guess The Kids Are All Right in a really pretentious kind of way but there were far better comedies than this load of crap.

Best Actress - Comedy or Musical
Annette Bening - The Kids Are All Right
Anne Hathaway - Love and Other Drugs
Angelina Jolie - The Tourist
Julianne Moore - The Kids Are All Right
Emma Stone - Easy A
Thoughts - I dislike more than half of these people. I'll be with the haters cheering for Julianne or Emma!

Best Actor - Comedy or Musical
Johnny Depp - Alice in Wonderland
Johnny Depp - The Tourist
Paul Giamatti - Barney's Version
Jake Gyllenhaal - Love and Other Drugs
Kevin Spacey - Casino Jack
Thoughts - This is pretty much the most pathetic category of all time.

Best Supporting Actress
Amy Adams - The Fighter
Helena Bonham Carter - The King's Speech
Mila Kunis - Black Swan
Melissa Leo - The Fighter
Jacki Weaver - Animal Kingdom
Thoughts - Go Mila!

Best Supporting Actor
Christian Bale - The Fighter
Michael Douglas - Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps
Andrew Garfield - The Social Network
Jeremy Renner - The Town
Geoffrey Rush - The King's Speech
Thoughts - I am pleasantly surprised to see Renner in there. He was the best thing about The Town and I really thought he would get overlooked now that all the big guns are coming out. Also, go Andrew! If Jesse Eisenberg didn't give the best performance of the year, then Andrew would have!

Best Director
Darren Aronofsky - Black Swan
David Fincher - The Social Network
Tom Hooper - The King's Speech
Christopher Nolan - Inception
David O. Russell - The Fighter
Thoughts - Three of my fave directors are nominated here. You have no idea how happy it makes me to see directors who are usually way too weird for mainstream to dominated this category. As long as Aronofsky, Fincher or Nolan win, I'll be happy.

And, since I'm toying with making this a movie / TV / music blog (thoughts??), here are the TV nominations as well...

Best TV Series - Drama
Boardwalk Empire
Dexter
The Good Wife
Man Men
The Walking Dead
Thoughts - I don't watch The Good Wife. I want so very badly to watch The Walking Dead but, alas, I must wait for DVD. I may be the only person on the planet who thinks Mad Men is overrated. I love Dexter so freaking much but I am currently two seasons behind. So that leaves the BRILLIANT Boardwalk Empire as my choice for winner!

Best Actress - Drama
Julianna Margulies - The Good Wife
Elisabeth Moss - Mad Men
Piper Perabo - Covert Affairs
Katey Sagal - Sons of Anarchy
Kyra Sedgwick - The Closer
Thoughts - KATEY F-ING SAGAL!!!!!!! I love her so much on that show. Go Katey!!!!

Best Actor - Drama
Steve Buscemi - Boardwalk Empire
Bryan Cranston - Breaking Bad
Michael C. Hall - Dexter
Jon Hamm - Mad Men
Hugh Laurie - House
Thoughts - They should just call this category "the usual suspects." I could care less about the last two on the list. Hall and Buscemi are so super good. But, really, Cranston has the best role on TV and he knocks it out of the park every freaking second of every minute of ever episode. As long as Breaking Bad is on TV, he should be rightfully winning every award ever. They should probably even just invent awards to give to him.

Best TV Series - Comedy or Musical
30 Rock
The Big Bang Theory
The Big C
Glee
Modern Family
Nurse Jackie
Thoughts - I do love me some Glee but I also think that Modern Family is the absolutely best show on TV.

Best Actress - Comedy or Musical
Toni Collette - United States of Tara
Edie Falco - Nurse Jackie
Tina Fey - 30 Rock
Laura Linney - The Big C
Lea Michele - Glee
Thoughts - I love Laura Linney? I don't watch that show though. Honestly, I don't really care.

Best Actor - Comedy or Musical
Alec Baldwin - 30 Rock
Steve Carell - The Office
Thomas Jane - Hung
Matthew Morrison - Glee
Jim Parsons - The Big Bang Theory
Thoughts - It would be nice for Carell to win for his final season on the show, yeah?

Best Supporting Actress
Hope Davis - The Special Relationship
Jane Lynch - Glee
Kelly MacDonald - Boardwalk Empire
Julia Stiles - Dexter
Sofia Vergara - Modern Family
Thoughts - I really hate MacDanald's character on Boardwalk Empire although I did like her very much in No Country For Old Men. Maybe that's the sign of a super great performance? Either way, I'm all in for Lynch!

Best Supporting Actor
Scott Caan - Hawaii Five-O
Chris Colfer - Glee
Chris Noth - The Good Wife
Eric Stonestreet - Modern Family
David Strathairn - Temple Grandin
Thoughts - Oh, there is so much epic fail in this category. First of all, Stonestreet is great as Cam on Modern Family but Jesse Tyler Ferguson (Mitchell) and Ty Burrell (Phil) are the superior performances by far. That was my tiny, little problem with this category. As for the giant, gleaming, awfulness??? Boardwalk Empire has the best, THE BEST, supporting actors in the business and not a single one of them was nominated!?!?! No Michael Pitt?? No Michael Shannon?? No Shea Whigham?? No Michael Stuhlbarg?? No Stephen Graham?? No Vincent Piazza?? It's a freaking shame. For a category that got so very much wrong at least they got Chris Colfer (the best actor on Glee by a mile) so very right.

Best Picture, Drama
Avatar
The Hurt Locker
Inglourious Basterds
Precious
Up in the Air
Thoughts - The Hurt Locker and Inglourious Basterds are two of my favorites. Avatar reminds me too much of Ferngully but I'm trying to stay open minded about it. Precious is going to be a critics darling this year. I really need to see Up in the Air.

Best Actress, Drama
Emily Blunt - The Young Victoria

Jeff Bridges - Crazy Heart
George Clooney - Up in the Air
Colin Firth - A Single Man
Morgan Freeman - Invictus
Tobey Maguire - Brothers
Thoughts - I really need to see Up in the Air. I'm glad Maguire found a way in there because I thought he did an excellent job in Brothers. But where oh where is Jeremy Renner?!

Best Picture, Comedy or Musical
(500) Days of Summer
The Hangover
It's Complicated

Best Supporting Actor
Matt Damon - Invictus
Woody Harrelson - The Messenger
Christopher Plummer - The Last Station

Best Director
Kathryn Bigelow - The Hurt Locker
James Cameron - Avatar
Clint Eastwood - Invictus
Jason Reitman - Up in the Air
Quentin Tarantino - Inglourious Basterds
Thoughts - I really hope Bigelow wins this and not just because she's the only lady in the group. The Hurt Locker is amazing and so is she.
