What happened to the Golden Globes discussion thread? -ptth-
I was very relieved The Departed only won for Best Director. I would have stopped watching the show for good if had won for Best Screenplay. -rolleyes- The only thing worse would have been Johnny Depp winning for his role in the terrible Dead Man's Chest. Anyhow, only a week away from Oscar nominations. :) |
I'm glad Babel won, it should have taken in Original Screenplay as well. I loved it as much as 21 Grams and Amores Perros and hated watching those films get the snub in their year.
The Departed winning for Best Picture would have been as uncreative as that film was. Give Scorcese the statue for Director, he's earned it, but not for The Departed. The Golden Globes and the Academy Awards will one day regret the fact they didn't recognize The Fountain as much as they should have. Bastards. Way to Go Helen, like we didn't expect it anyways. |

Well, I finally caught up and saw Babel last night. I thought it was very good, but by no means great and definitely not Best Picture material. Whoever said it was this year's Crash is totally right. I can think of at least 5 other movies more deserving (Pan's Labyrinth, Children of Men, The Departed and United 93 to name a few). I really hope the Oscars differ greatly from the globes this year since the Globes were truly uninspired.

I forgot the ultimate outrage. The GGs probably thought it was a cute idea but I think giving the best-foreign-language film award to an American film is idiotic (Clint Eastwood's Letters from Iwo Jima), even if it shows the Japanese point of view in WWII. I'm sure they saw it as just another occasion to invite Clint Eastwood to their party.

To be fair, Letters from Iwo Jima was an America-Japanese co-production.

It was an ok show. No real surprises, cept for "Babel".
i loved that Martin Scorcese and Alec Baldwin got dues. they both had great years and even Baldwin's turn in "The Departed" was memorable, but damn if he isn't great on "30 Rock" . Also, Sasha Baron Cohen's speech was one of the funniest things i've heard in a long time, probably equating to Steve Carell's last year. |
I think it was Katzenberg who had to convince him to do it because Murphy didn't want to do a movie where he didn't get pair a lot of money. He's demeanor was a real turn off. He seemed ALL about the money. Jennifer Hudson was fantastic as well, but most of her role was what she is, a singer. So Eddie gets the nod from me as the showstopper in that film. |

But they don't know who wins before they go!

let me chime in here, and just say I find it tacky and self obsessive to see actor's clap for themselves when their name is announced.

I find it annoying how every year at these award shows, hollywood keeps kissing Jack Nicholson's ass! The camera is always on Jack. Everyone on stage keeps saying "I can't believe I'm looking at Jack!" "There's Jack!" "It's Jack!" Nicholson is a great actor, but come on...It's this constant ass kissing that let's a manic narcissistic guy like Nicholson think he has the right to bash a guy's windsheild in with a golf club!
