Golden Gripes
________________________________________________________________ Wow...I didn't do too bad in my Golden Globe guesses. I even got one of the categories totally right...woo hoo. And I had some other correct ones that I ended up deleting. I'm a little surprised that Babel got so many noms...but on 2nd thought...I should've known that the FOREIGN press would go for a movie focusing on various cultures.
But I'm PISSED that Leonardo DiCaprio got 2 best actor nominations. Not because he doesn't deserve them (he does!)...but being nominated twice in one category could go against him. Voters may split on the two movies he's nominated for, allowing someone else to win. Ditto for Clint Eastwood who was nominated as Best Director twice. Hmmm....a conundrum indeed. They need to reform their nomination process.
Also, I think deciding who is a "lead" and who is a "supporting" actor is BS. Jack Nicholson was a lead in The Departed, but nominated as "supporting". Beyonce was nominated as a lead and Jennifer Hudson as "supporting" even though Hudson supposedly has more screen time. pfft....these awards are so political...such a shame.
