Posted this in the Oscar nomination discussion before I saw this topic, anyway:

Am I the only one that was surprised that "Walk the Line" was nominated in the "Musical or Comedy" category? I haven't seen the film, but all I've heard about it made think that, sure there's singing in it due to the subject matter, but I certainly wouldn't have pegged it for that category - maybe my mind will change if I get a chance to see it. That just stood out to me in the nominations.

Bummed about no King Kong BP nomination, but glad to see Jackson's name in the Director category again, then again, I've never given too much credence to the GGs anyway (well, about as much as I give to the Oscars at least, ).

I also found the lack of Munich in BP interesting, particularly in light of Constant Gardener and History of Violence being recognized. I was also somewhat surprised by MatchPoint being up there, I've been interested in seeing it, but most of the talk I've heard is just how different it seems to be for Woody Allen.

I'm also glad to see Matt Dillon up there for Crash, well deserved, IMO.

I'll have seen all of these by Globe day. I love that History of Violence snuck in there, even if it was at the expense of King Kong.

I'd better get out to the theater and see Hustle & Flow. I can't wait to see Brokeback Mountain. Good for Russell, getting some love for an excellent performance. I don't agree with David Strathairn's inclusion. I loved the movie and him in it, but he didn't really DO anything, did he?

I've only seen P&P and WTL. I will see the others. Squid is playing in theaters now, so I'd better get out. At least it will stay around longer now that it's a nominee.

Oh yuck. I had no intention of seeing The Family Stone. It looks totally nasty. Not as in a bad movie, but as in a bunch of characters I'll hate with a passion, who will be mean and nasty to each other for no readily apparant reason. Now I guess I have to. Bleaugh.

Proof was better then I thought, I enjoyed it.
North Country was too over the top and changed too much historical facts, IMHO, and wasn't up to the hyper.

Oh, I looked at a listing and I was thinking of Get Rich or Die Tryin' because he's in that too. Whew, now I don't have to see that Fitty Film.

I did want to see both films, but it just didn't come together. I knew that NC wasn't considered all that great, but that Charlize was receiving praise. I kept putting it off, saying I'll see it next week, next week, next week. Many a movie has fallen by the wayside because of my next weeks. That's what happened with Proof too.


I'm also surprised that Munich didn't get a BP nom. That's gotta be a major blow to the Munich crew. I still think it'll get an Oscar nom.


Who's Sarah Chalke?

Cillian Murphy is a transvestite/transsexual in Breakfast on Pluto but I can't remember the plot details. It's directed by Neil Jordan but is supposed to be much lighter fare than The Crying Game.

Hustle & Flow was way underseen because people dismiss the subject matter unfairly. Not the best movie I've seen this year, but a very good one. I think Terrence Howard's performance (and Jeff Daniels, too) were "better" than PSH in Capote.

I haven't seen all these films yet so I can't fully comment on them but so far of what I have seen is that Revenge Of The Sith is far and away the best soundtrack I've heard this year-maybe even the past 2 years.) Too bad it didn't get a nom. The ROTS score has some of everything...Oh well. Bummer.

I think John Williams has been on a roll too with last years absolutely stunning work on Azkaban and this year's ROTS. Two of his best ever.

Another baffling nom is Pride and Prejudice as Comedy-Musical. Although it had contained some humor, it certainly wasn't made as a comedy per se. I think the GG categories are silly; nutty foreign journalists...

Agree with Tim on the SITH score. Some amazing work from Williams, and it really helps build suspense and sadness into the latter half of the film. Amazing that he was able to innovate (once again) even though he was working on his SIXTH star wars film.

Heck, I think he should get nominated on the strength of ANAKIN'S BETRAYAL and THE IMMOLATION all by themselves. Some truly dark, tragic stuff there.

I also really like the BATMAN BEGINS score, which has grown on me the more I've listened to it. Another one with a unique sound and a significant contribution to the tone the director was trying to set with the movie.

As do I. The ROTS score was actually pretty complex, but to be fair, I doubt the HFPA gives this much thought at all. I still consider ROTS the best score of the year among the paltry films I've seen.

And I liked BB quite a bit, but it wasn't really deserving of any attention on the awards side. I do think ROTS was.

Just a reminder that the show airs this MONDAY night, January 16, 8PM on NBC.

Wonder why they moved it to Monday night as opposed to Saturday as usual?

Saturday? I've never watched a Golden Globe ceremony on a Saturday. When I've seen it, it was always the day before the work week, either Sunday or Monday.

NBC isn't doing so well in the ratings, so maybe that's why it's on a Monday this year instead of on Sunday.

It's because this Monday is the day before the work week for most people. On any other week, it would've been a Sunday.
