2019 Golden Globe Winners

Josh Zyber — Mon, 07 Jan 2019 17:00:09 +0000

Last year, the Golden Globes gave out trophies to James Franco and Aziz Ansari. Which of this year’s winners will soon be embroiled in sexual misconduct scandals? I’m really worried about Carol Burnett! I kid, of course. It’s probably going to be Christian Bale, isn’t it?. Sadly, that seems the most likely. He gave a...

2018 Golden Globe Winners

Josh Zyber — Mon, 08 Jan 2018 06:00:11 +0000

The Golden Globe Awards traditionally have a reputation as the biggest party in Hollywood, where celebrities often get sloppy drunk and everybody has a fun time. Coming off the turmoil of the past year, however, it’s little surprise that pretty much no one in the entertainment industry felt comfortable letting loose this time. The somber...

2018 Golden Globe Nominations

Josh Zyber — Tue, 12 Dec 2017 17:00:56 +0000

Were ‘Get Out’ and ‘Lady Bird’ necessarily “comedies,” exactly? Why didn’t ‘The Big Sick’ get recognized for anything? Did Christopher Plummer really just get an award nomination for playing Kevin Spacey? It’s Golden Globe nomination time. Let the bafflement begin. The 2018 award season kicked off Monday morning when Kristen Bell, Alfre Woodard, Garrett Hedlund...

2017 Golden Globe Winners

Josh Zyber — Mon, 09 Jan 2017 19:00:49 +0000

In most years, the final award given out at the Golden Globes (Best Motion Picture – Drama) is the most important prize of the evening and the strongest Oscar predictor. This year, however, was all about the Comedy/Musical category, which wrapped up about 20 minutes earlier. The movie of the night was clearly Damien Chazelle’s...

2017 Golden Globe Nominations

Josh Zyber — Mon, 12 Dec 2016 20:00:42 +0000

As it inevitably must every year at this time, awards season has begun. This morning, actors Don Cheadle, Laura Dern and Anna Kendrick announced the 2017 Golden Globe nominations for movies and TV. I don’t know if it’s just typical Golden Globes quirkiness, but this seems like a particularly unexciting year in almost every category,...

2016 Golden Globe Winners

Josh Zyber — Mon, 11 Jan 2016 16:00:00 +0000

It used to be, in years past, that the big winners at the Golden Globes were often in sync with the Oscars that followed and could be considered a strong predictor. That isn’t necessarily the case anymore. Basically, nobody takes the Globes seriously, least of all master-of-ceremonies Ricky Gervais, who returned for his fourth time...

Statuesque: 2015 Golden Globe Winners

Josh Zyber — Mon, 12 Jan 2015 05:00:43 +0000

‘Boyhood’ and ‘The Grand Budapest Hotel’ came up as the big winners at the Golden Globe Awards on Sunday night. Not that anyone has ever taken the Globes seriously as a measure of artistic worth, but the awards are sometimes considered a possible indicator of future Oscar success. Sometimes, not always. In fact, I’m not...

Statuesque: 2015 Golden Globe Predictions – Televison

Shannon Nutt — Thu, 08 Jan 2015 20:00:43 +0000

A couple days ago, I gave my predictions for the movie categories at this year’s Golden Globes. Now it’s time to cover the major TV awards. Once again, these predictions are not what I would personally choose if I had a vote, but rather what I feel is most likely to win come Sunday night....

On Sunday night, January 11th, the 72nd Golden Globes will take place at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles. Unlike many previous ceremonies, this year there are no clear-cut frontrunners in most of the major categories. Below, I’ll take my best crack at guessing who I think will walk away with the major movie...

Statuesque: 2015 Golden Globe Nominations

Josh Zyber — Thu, 11 Dec 2014 18:00:50 +0000

Is it awards season already? Early this morning, Kate Beckinsale, Jeremy Piven, Peter Krause and Paula Patton announced the 2015 Golden Globe Award nominations. As happened last year, I’m once again disappointed that the Hollywood Foreign Press Association has largely focused on safe picks, with few of the truly mystifying oddball nominations that used to...

Statuesque: Golden Globes 2014 After-Party

Josh Zyber — Mon, 13 Jan 2014 14:00:08 +0000

The Golden Globes aired last night, hosted for the second year in a row by funny ladies Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. The Globes have a reputation for being the most fun event of awards season, but sadly, I have to say that this one was pretty dull. As for the prizes handed out, well…...

Statuesque: 2014 Golden Globe Nominations Announced

Josh Zyber — Fri, 13 Dec 2013 14:00:11 +0000

Here we are almost at the end of the year, which means that awards season has officially begun. Several regional critics’ groups have already named their best-of picks for 2013, but let’s be honest; the only movie awards that anyone really cares about are the Oscars and, to a much lesser extent, the Golden Globes...
