Another Golden Globes Blog

I'm sure by now you've read enough Golden Globes blogs to satisfy your awards cravings until the Oscars! I don't usually watch the Golden Globes, but this year I remembered to look up the repeats so I could actually watch it. I struggle to watch the American awards shows simply because of the time difference, then by the time I wake up the day after I can just read the coverage.


I enjoyed it, though. [If I remember] it's certainly one I will watch again! I thought Tina Fey and Amy Poelher did a great job hosting, some of the actors looked slightly bemused by their antics but others were excellent sports (note: Leonardo DiCaprio for the thumbs up).


This year's nominee list was dominated by three films, 12 Years A Slave, American Hustle, and Gravity. I am sorely disappointed to say I have yet to see any, so I can't pass judgement on who was a worthy winner or not! I was very happy to see Leonardo DiCaprio pick up the award for Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy, I'm seeing The Wolf of Wall Street next week and I am very excited (and I will do a review after). I imagine 12 Years A Slave may dominate the Oscars, they aren't really ones to enjoy a comedy I don't think.

I was also impressed to see Brooklyn Nine-Nine scoop best TV Comedy and Andy Samberg get Best Actor in a TV Comedy. Brooklyn Nine-Nine airs in the UK on Thursday and I was planning on watching anyway but now I'm really looking forward to it. I think that's why I enjoyed The Golden Globes, they celebrate comedy as well as drama.

I won't delve into the fashion side of the awards too much, everyone will have been picked apart already. I did think Jessica Chastain looked amazing though, and also Lupita Nyong'o looked stunning! 


The state of upcoming movies looks brilliant, I want to see Inside Llweyn Davis, and Her a lot too. 

I'm excited about the BAFTAs now, my personal favourite movie awards. I am a sucker for awards season.
