Golden Globes 2010

67th Annual Golden Globe Awards. Winners to be announced on Sunday, January 17th. Here’s my choice. Choice, not prediction. We’ll never know how they pull the string.

Awards still shift product: this is a fact.

Just like Emmy. Remember Dr. Horrible interrupted the Ernst and Young voting explanation? So here it is. And my choices are a little subjectively too. Something like, I don’t like old people’s movies.

Best Motion Picture – Drama: Inglourious Basterds (2009).

Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy: (500) Days of Summer (2009). This one rather fit drama-romance + comedy (I just made up this category). But I found that The Hangover (2009) is not so funny. It’s Complicated (2009) is crap – the old people’s movies. Julie is okay, Julia is annoying, especially her voice. Nine (2009) is not released yet in pirate’s world.

Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture – Drama: George Clooney for Up in the Air (2009), job with traveling involved ftw, and I’ve only watched this and Invictus (2009) for the time being.

Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture – Drama: Sandra Bullock for The Blind Side (2009). Carey Mulligan is fairly good. I watched The Young Victoria (2009) a while ago, don’t remember much, first time I heard of The Last Station (2009), not interested in Precious (go under the radar if it wasn’t publicized by Oprah?).

Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy: Joseph Gordon-Levitt for (500) Days of Summer (2009), only watched this and A Serious Man (2009) yet. Just got Sherlock Holmes (2009) yesterday.

Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy: Sandra Bullock for The Proposal (2009). Duplicity (2009) is musical, comedy? Hate Meryl Streep btw.

Best Director – Motion Picture: James Cameron for Avatar (2009), though when I watched this in the movies (3D) I was sleepy and uncomfortable. Still waiting for 720p or something.

Best Screenplay – Motion Picture: Inglourious Basterds (2009): Quentin Tarantino.

Best Animated Film: Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009). The Princess and the Frog (2009) came out yesterday too (the only one I’m not watching yet). But it looks like too ‘kids‘, like Up (2009).

Best Foreign Language Film: Los abrazos rotos (2009), the only one I’ve watched yet, it won Critics Choice Awards anyway.

Best Television Series – Drama: “House M.D.” (2004). Too much drama in the last season of “Dexter” (2006), boring.

Best Television Series – Musical or Comedy: “Modern Family” (2009), “Entourage” (2004) as runner-up. “30 Rock” (2006) is not funny, freak, I don’t like any of the crews. Don’t know how can they won Emmy three years in the row. I don’t like arrogant boss in “The Office” (2005), not so funny anyway. “Glee” (2009)… meh, high school musical?

Best Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for Television: “Little Dorrit” (2008) and Taking Chance (2009) are good. Grey Gardens (2009) is boring eccentric.

I think that’s it. I’m not covering all categories. Let’s look who is winning tonight.
