Meanwhile, Roma is the second foreign language film in history to get a Screenplay nod at the Globes.

The snubs for First Man and Widows definitely hurt. The snubs for Hereditary and First Reformed hurt a lot too but I was kinda expecting those.
Really happy to see Hedges get in. I know he doesn’t have much love here but I really enjoyed his work in Boy Erased. Also awesome for Elsie Fisher.
Look I actually liked Green Book. I know it’s a crowdpleaser and I get the acting noms but Director and screenplay? Really?
The music in A Quiet Place was easily the worst part of the movie because it constantly prevented me from getting fully immersed in the quiet atmosphere. Least favorite nomination tbh.
Haven’t seen The Favourite yet but it’s cool seeing a Yorgos Lanthimos movie get so much love (even if he personally wasn’t nominated)

The Screenplay snub for A Star Is Born is even worse than I expected, stats-wise. Since 1990, only three movies that were snubbed for Best Screenplay at the Globes went on to win Best Picture at the Oscars: 1. Gladiator: a blockbuster, effects-driven movie set in Ancient Rome; 2. The Lord of The Rings - The Return of The King: a blockbuster, effects-driven fantasy movie, whose previous films were snubbed too; 3. Million Dollar Baby: which is the precedent A Star Is Born is hoping to repeat. ASIB probably won't get one at Oscars too. This is the 3rd adaptation.

I'm still having a problem understanding the lack of love for Roma's actresses.

I'm still having a problem understanding the lack of love for Roma's actresses. The Globes are star-fuckers who will almost always opt for the biggest name in contention, and Aparicio and de Tavira aren't big names (Aparicio isn't even a professional actress).

Was Roma ineligible for Drama?

For A Star Is Born to win Best Picture, it will have to pull a Chicago/Gladiator, hence win a few techs and at least an acting award. Unless the Academy decides to give it Best Director, which would be puke-inducing.

Was Roma ineligible for Drama? Foreign films aren't eligible to compete for the Best Picture prizes, apparently.

This is my big worry, especially as Cooper is campaigning harder for Best Director than he is for Best Actor, but I'm hoping cooler heads prevail at the end.

I wouldn't place much emphasis on stats here. A Star is Born is still safe and it's a lock for the Picture Drama win.
Vice rises, seems like the polarizing reviews didn't matter as much. And I'm guessing Amy wins here?

And I'm guessing Amy wins here? Adams has won twice here before, and they may see the opportunity to give her and King the win by rewarding Adams for Sharp Objects and King in Supporting Actress, or vice versa. They are both nominated in Supporting Actress and TV Actress in a Miniseries, and I think it'll ultimately depend on if King sweeps the year with the critics to the point that the Globes want to follow suit (they've already given Adams their due), or if Adams picks up traction. It will also depend on if Bale can beat Mortensen. Vice has early strength but it could just as easily go home empty-handed; its comedy competition is dense as hell and it's unlikely it'll take Supporting Actor, which is the only category it has where it isn't up against something like The Favourite or Mary Poppins Returns, and they may feel the need to give Ali a makeup win for 2016.

I have almost zero interest in this year's awards season if it wasn't for the very good and truly special Burning but alas it didn't makes it. I haven't rated an English language film over 7,5, haven't seen a single oscar worthy performance yet. Can't even support the GOAT's son as I think he's just Okay in BlacKkKlansman, dude has a charming screen presence but that's pretty much all he shown there, no intensity, no sparks whatsoever, put a fro' on Kevin Hart and he could have done the same job, really.
Hope to be a little impressed by the very few things I'm yet to see (At Eternity’s Gate, Vice).

I'm thinking this may be the same supporting actress lineup at the Oscars.

The Globes are star-fuckers who will almost always opt for the biggest name in contention, and Aparicio and de Tavira aren't big names (Aparicio isn't even a professional actress). Aparico and De Tavira are underperforming everywhere. Aparico in particular has been let down by all the critics hyping her, yet voting for other actresses in their awards. Globes starfucking isn't what it used to be. They don't mind snubbing big names as much as they used to (think...Rosalind Pike got in over Julia Roberts. You think that would have happened 10 years ago). I defintely think there was a turning point when Ricky Gervais was hosting and he mercilessly jabbed the Globes for their star fucking (ie nominating Depp and Homie for The Tourist). They will always be a mainstream Hollywood awards show, but I think they try harder to be credible these days and won't automagically nominate any big star (William Dafoe over Ryan Gosling is another shocker that would not have happened a while ago)

Also, I'd say Rosamund Pike is a big enough name to be considered a star. She's an Oscar nominee, after all, which would qualify her as a star of some repute, certainly more than someone like Aparicio. And Julia Roberts is already there for Homecoming, so perhaps they felt they could spread the love.

At least not as the Globes would term 'star' (which is some one who moves the needle for genreal audiences).No one tunes in to see Rosamund Pike. Previous Oscar nominee or not, she hasn't got that kind of profile (and anyone who has done more than one movie is a "star" compared to Aparico) Viola Davis, Natalie Portman are a bunch of actual needle moving stars the HFPA ignored for Pike. I don't see Pike as a star pick. It was an under the radar performance with a lot of acclaim. If anything Pike is the type of choice the HFPA make now to show that they aren't starfucking, and are actually looking at great performances on the margins of the pundits conversations.

They liked Pike's film enough to throw her film a second nod (for Song, which seems inconsequential until you realize Mary Poppins Returns couldn't even break into that category), and her studio has been running a pretty solid campaign for it, with Michael Mann hosting screenings for it and the like. Pike may not be a mega-star like Roberts or Kidman, but I'd still say she counts. But then, I don't think they nominated Pike just to get her star wattage, whatever it may be. What's interesting is that the HFPA made such a huge deal of pushing Portman into lead only to dismiss her entirely.

David Ehrlich is so pissed that First Reformed was totally shut down.
