Truth is, the only opinion that matters is ours at L@G. So instead of making predictions of this years Golden Globes, we'll just give them away to who we think deserves them. Also, none of this "motion picture" talk. It's a fucking movie to everyone else.
Avatar
The Hurt Locker
Inglorious Basterds
Precious
Up In The Air
Should Win: Precious. All these movies are actually good, but Precious is the best, but only slightly.
Best Movie Comedy or Musical
500 Days of Summer
The Hangover
It's Complicated
Julie and Julia
Nine
Should Win: 500 Days of Summer. None of these other movies really match up.
Best Actor In A Drama Movie
Jeff Bridges- Crazy Heart
George Clooney- Up In The Air
Colin Firth- A Single Man
Morgan Freeman- Invictus
Tobey Maguire- Brothers
Should Win: Colin Firth. George Clooney was good at playing himself as usual. Morgan Freeman is fine but it wasn't much of a stretch. Tobey Maguire is just laughable and Jeff Bridges is whatever.
Best Actress in a Drama Movie
Emily Blunt- The Young Victoria
Sandra Bullock- The Blind Side
Helen Mirren- The Last Station
Carey Mulligan- An Education
Gabourney Sibide- Precious
Should Win: Gabourney Sibide. Carey Mulligan was great in an otherwise mediocre film. Even though we'll never see her again, Gabourney was stellar in Precious.
Best Supporting Actor In a Movie Drama
Matt Damon- Invictus
Woody Harrelson- The Messenger
Christopher Plummer- The Last Station
Stanley Tucci- The Lovely Bones
Christopher Waltz- Inglorious Basterds
Should Win: Christopher Waltz. He was an eerily awful creeptastic fucktit in this film, and he deserves it.
Best Supporting Actress In a Movie Drama
Penelope Cruz- Nine
Vera Farmiga- Up In The Air
Anna Kendrick- Up In The Air
Monique- Precious
Julianne Moore- A Single Man
Should Win: All very good, but Monique deserves it, hands down.
Best Actor In a Movie Comedy
Matt Damon- The Informant
Daniel Day-Lewis- Nine
Robert Downy Jr.- Sherlock Holmes
Josehph Gordon Levitt- 500 Days of Summer
Michael Stuhlbard- A Serious Man
Should Win: Daniel Day Lewis is by far the best actor alive and should absolutely win for this otherwise blah movie.
Best Actress in a Movie Comedy
Sandra Bullock- The Proposal
Marion Cotillard- Nine
Julia Roberts- Duplicity
Meryl Streep- It's Complicated
Meryl Strepp- Julie and Julia
Should Win: Julia Roberts is clearly just nominated because they needed to fill up the category. Meryl Streep should win for Julie and Julia.
Best Television Series
Big Love
Dexter
House
Mad Men
True Blood
Should Win: Not House. It's a throwdown between Mad Men and True Blood, with True Blood inching passed for the win.
Best Television Series Comedy or Musical
30 Rock
Entourage
Glee
Modern Family
The Office
Should Win: For the first time in years, we actually have a show that fits both Comedy and Musical with Glee. However Modern Family is far better and will win, knocking the over-rated 30 Rock off it's high horse.
Best Actor in a Television Series Drama
Simon Baker- The Mentalist
Michael C. Hall- Dexter
Jon Hamm- Mad Men
Hugh Laurie- House
Bill Paxton- Big Love
Should Win: Since we're against all things House, not Hugh Laurie. Jon Hamm is great on Mad Men but Michael C Hall is bone chilling as Dexter, and should win.
Best Actress in a Television Series Drama
Julianna Marguiles- The Good Wife
Glenn Close- Damages
January Jones- Mad Men
Anna Paquin- True Blood
Kyra Sedgwick- The Closer
Should Win: January Jones deserves some much needed recognition for her understated, under-rated and subtle performance on Mad Men. Thus, she should win.
Best Actor In Comedy Television Series
Alec Baldwin- 30 Rock
Steve Carell- The Office
Thomas Jane- Hung
David Duchovny- Californication
Matthew Morrison- Glee
Should Win: David Duchovny has the others beat out by a shit ton. His performance as arrogant, cocky, abrasive and witty Hank Moody is ridiculously great.
Best Actress in a Comedy Television Series
Toni Collette- United States of Tara
Courteney Cox- Cougar Town
Tina Gey- 30 Rock
Edie Falco- Nurse Jackie
Lea Michele- Glee
Should Win: Frankly, we like all of these ladies, but we don't think any of them deserve to win. Tina Fey has won in years past, but it feels like 30 Rock's time is up. We'll give the award to Lea Michele, because the other four are somewhat interchangeable.
