The 2013 Golden Globe nominations arrived this morning, and for the most part, they are pretty much what we expected. Once again, Lincoln leads the nominations with 7 nods. It’s the most nominations a Spielberg movie received from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. Argo, Silver Linings Playbook, and Zero Dark Thirty also picked up several nods. More unpredictable were the comedy/musical categories. Besides Les Miserables and The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, surprisingly Salmon Fishing in the Yemen got a Best Picture nomination, along with nods for its stars, Ewan McGregor and Emily Blunt.
In the TV categories, Homeland and Downton Abbey are major contenders. Mandy Patinkin (Holla!) got a nod for Homeland, along with co-stars Claire Danes and Damian Lewis, which I’m jazzed about. For comedies, I’m happy to see New Girl get some nominations. But I do feel some of TV’s best comedies did get snubbed.
The Globes are known to recognize movies and TV that usually the general movie/TV buff population would disagree with. (We remember The Tourist from a couple years ago. Eh.) This year, The Newsroom shut out Mad Men from the Best Drama category, which I’m sure is going to annoy many Mad Men fans. In addition, the fact that Glee can still get nominations completely puzzles me. Also disappointing is that ParaNorman, which is tied with Brave for being one of my favorite animated films of the year, got shafted for the likes of Hotel Transylvania and Rise of the Guardians. Regardless, time has proven that the Hollywood Foreign Press isn’t always a predictor for the Academy Awards.
The Golden Globes airs live Sunday, January 13th on NBC. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler will be hosting the ceremony. Fey and Poehler are pretty psyched to be hosting, watch them in the Golden Globes promo video below. And for the full list of Golden Globes nominees, scroll to after the video and jump!
