Smart move on Sony's part regarding "OUATIH". I think DiCaprio is definitely coming for yet another Golden Globe.

Very smart for Sony. I thought Netflix would split up their 4 films, so it’s sort of weird that they want The Two Popes in Drama. Of course the Globes can reject these placements, but Pryce won’t be able to beat Phoenix and Driver.
ETA: If these hold, I guess Awkwafina wins the Comedy/Musical Globe in a walk.

Very stupid to put Judy in Drama, what do they expect? Rene is the only hope for the movie and Most ppl want Scarjo to win Jlo can win best Actress comedy if she run for lead. I don't think they can put Judy into Comedy/Musical because of the Globes changing their rules after The Martian won Best Comedy/Musical. So unfortunately Judy isn't a true musical otherwise Zellweger would definitely win if it's only her and Awkwafina, assuming that the Globes don't put Awkwafina in Drama too, and the other realistic Best Actress Oscar contenders are in Drama. Although I think Zellweger is winning no matter where they put her because they used to love her, and Judy just seems like that kind of performance/role to me that I think it's almost unbeatable. However, if Awkwafina does get put into the Comedy/Musical category, she seems like such an odd winner for the Globes. I know she's in demand right now, but she's still pretty unknown. More importantly though, I don't think the Globes will miss a chance to try to spread the wealth to cover more of their bases in correctly picking the winner for the Oscar, so I can definitely see them bumping up Lopez to lead, or moving Bombshell or Marriage Story to Comedy/Musical that way they can award Theron or Johansson here instead and still award Zellweger. I guess this could be one of those weird years where all of the top acting Oscar contenders are in Drama, but it's the Globes, and they're going to do their best to have big moments that get people talking about their awards. |

I didnt know this, thank you. More bad movies are gonna get the nod in the coming future I think. Rene doesnt shine anymore, no BO movies in recent years, never worked in critically acclaimed movies, rarely came to red carpets etc. Just shows up out of the blue in Oscar baity movie, She's not Cate Blanchette! and GG recently gave surprising Winners in the category like huppert. I think Erivo could be the biggest threat from the line-up.
Oh honey, how dare you ruin the renee-aissance! They need to give her the Globe (and the Oscar) otherwise they could lose her forever (although I doubt it, but it does sound good).
She's so sweet in this interview

She's so sweet in this interview Yeah ..right Two time Oscar winner Renee Zelweger, one for horrendous Kidman-shadowy performance in Cold Mountain! Even Julianne Moore and Julia Robert are not two-time yet Oh honey, and neither is Nicole... not even with her five flops every year. Judy has already made almost $30 million at the box office. Just saying... That is another good reason why they should give it to Renee! Thanks honey.  ... and how do you feel about Charlize getting a second Oscar? |

Musicians -bios such as Ray and Walk the Line were nominated as musicals and then last year Bohemian Rhapsody went drama. Now you have Rocketman which is another musician bio and it is going musical so how are they different??? Rocketman decided to breakout out song but in essence they are both bios based on the musician's life and how they became an icon. So I guess my point is that going forward if you wanna go musical route at globes like ray and Walk the Line did in the past, you gotta pull a rocketman. |

It’s a biopic but it’s also clearly a musical. Bohemian Rhapsody is a biopic about musicians. Ray and Walk the Line came before they changed the rules and would have been considered drama under the new rules. Also I really doubt they made Rocketman the way they did because of golden globes category placement. |

They have made many questionable decisions in regards to this category but I think they got this one and Bohemian right. They are very different so I don’t consider this inconsistent. |

Yeah, I'm completely with sterling on this, that's why I was confused about your comment. "Rocketman" was totally a musical in all the classic ways. Doesn't matter that it was also a biopiс - it just so happened to be a musical biopic. Not a movie with people singing some songs on stage but a movie in which reality takes a step back and the fantasy of the musical kicks in. I'm glad that the Globes are not accepting biopics about musicians in the Musical/Comedy category now. So yeah, if any other biopics pull a "Rocketman" then they deserve to be in the right category. |

What does this mean for Awkwafina? Great question. I'm assuming that she'll be placed in Comedy/Musical only because before I saw The Farewell, I saw it was described as as comedy. There were some funny moments in it, but I wouldn't really consider it a straight comedy though. Perhaps if the ending is factored in, I guess it makes sense since it turns out that real life Nei Nei is still alive. I think that it makes more sense for her to be placed in Drama, but then Comedy/Musical is going to be really lopsided in comparison. While I agree with the Globes on finally changing the rules on what a musical is since I think straight biopics about singers had an unfair advantage, I think some films like The Martian which started all of this are more a mix and would be okay in either category. Like with Hustlers, there were some funny moments in it, but for me it was more dramatic, but I guess it will be considered a comedy. Or Once Upon a Time in Hollywood had some funny moments, but I could also see that going drama. Or Little Women, there is Beth's death , but other than that, I think it's pretty light. I don't know what the solution would be though other than what they do now because if left to the studios, they would of course just try to do what's better for their films' award chances like how SAG leaves it up to the studio on which category an actor is placed in. Wait--- Is Uncut Gems a comedy?? So what does that mean for Sandler? There's a little space for him. I've seen it described as a comedy, so I'm guessing it is. I think he'll get in just because he's such a big name, and he also got great reviews too. I don't think he'll win, but in a weaker year I think he could have. |
