The Broncos are in the playoffs. Why am I beginning my post with that, instead of say, just jumping right into the Golden Globes? Because due to the fact that the Broncos are IN THE PLAYOFFS, I won't really be fully devoted to making my predictions this year. I'm too nervous about the game tomorrow. I could wait until after the game to write up my predictions, but I will either A) be in a funk because they blew it, or B) be on such a game-winning high that I cannot focus on anything else. So here goes my very quick overview of which actors, actresses, movies, TV shows, etc. etc. will win the 2012 Golden Globes.
Best Picture - Drama: The Descendants
Best Actress - Drama: Meryl Streep
Best Actor - Drama: George Clooney
Best Picture - Comedy: The Artist (although I would rather have Midnight in Paris win)
Best Actress - Comedy: Kristen Wiig
Best Actor - Comedy: Jean Dujardin
Best Animated Feature Film: Puss in Boots
Best Director: Michel Hazanavicius
Best Screenplay: Woody Allen
Best Foreign Language Film: The Flowers of War
Best TV Series - Drama: Homeland
Best TV Actress - Drama: Claire Danes
Best TV Actor - Drama: Bryan Cranston
Best TV Series - Comedy: Modern Family
Best TV Actress - Comedy: Zooey Deschanel
Best TV Actor - Comedy: Alec Baldwin (although he may have fallen out of favor with Hollywood over the whole Words With Friends fiasco)
Best Mini-Series - Downton Abbey
Best Actress - Mini Series: Kate Winslet
Best Actor - Mini Series: Bill Nighy
And there you have it. Let's hope that I'm actually in a good mood to watch the awards ceremony. What if someone tebowed during their acceptance speech. Hmm....
Glad you are semi on top of this. I plan on watching cause I love Ricky Gervais, but I am ashamed to say I have not seen many of these films, but I will of course be better prepared for the Academy's!
ReplyDeleteOh and I would like to hope that Arthur Christmas would win its category- while I liked puss in boots I thought animation wise Arthur Christmas was better. But I know its a slim chance, but a girl can dream.
ReplyDeleteYou think Homeland? I don't know....
ReplyDeleteI realize I could have put this all in one post yet I keep looking at your predictions as I attempt mine. I think I am too caught up in my downfall... human emotion- I am just going with my personal feelings and this wrong just wrong! :) And no way to have accurate predictions!
I tried to laugh, but I am too nervous.
ReplyDeleteAlex - I haven't seen the majority of the nominees, for both film and TV. I feel like a real slacker this year. And yes, I think Homeland will win. It has gotten phenomenal reviews. But as I haven't seen any of the nominees for that category, it really could go any way I suppose.
ReplyDeleteEric - maybe you not laughing isn't because you are nervous, but because I'm not actually funny.
