The Annual Golden Globes - General Discussion

[bmoore4026]

Holy cow, wasn't expecting Awkwafina to win.

[TVFan17]

I didn't see Rocketman, but I adore Elton as an artist and was worried that the movie might ruin my love for Elton if it wasn't good.

Doesn’t Brad Pitt stink?  I thought I read somewhere that he doesn’t shower or use deodorant or something.

according to Angelina his kids call him "stinky daddy."

[MVFrostsMyPie]

Congrats Awkwafina!

[sally-can-wait]

Oh man. I so wanted Ana to win. I saw The Farewell and was not that impressed with Awkwafina. Oh well. 

[scarynikki12]

Awkwafina!!!!!!!

[Craphole Island]

Damn Brad can still get it. 

[superdeluxe]

Huh.  Eddie Murphy actually showed up and he ended up not winning.  Oh, well.  Focus on getting the Emmy.

Tom did mention Peter Scolari by name.  

And he mentioned Holland Taylor. 

Boy, Awkwafina looked flabbergasted to win.

I didn't like Rocketman period. I love Elton John music but the biopic was so by the numbers.

I didn't see it, but it looked like the poor man's version of a movie after I saw Bohemian Rhapsody.

I've read that too. I just figure he reeks of ass and weed. 

[wallflower75]

Oooh...I love that dress!!

[mojoween]

Naomi’s dress is so sparkly and like a magpie I am very drawn to it.

Marriage Story looks like a film that is probably great, but won't be all that fun to watch, if that makes any sense.

[MVFrostsMyPie]

Aren't trailers supposed to make us want to watch a movie? Marriage Story's was the opposite of that.

I do not even attempt to touch these films after Blue Valentine. No thanks. Nope.

That's what I keep thinking when I hear about it.  And right now, with all the stress I'm under, the last thing I need is something depressing.

I know I remember reading that somewhere and ever since whenever I see Brad Pitt on TV or whatever, my nose curls up and I’m like, how can people be around him?

[Ohwell]

Nope.  Don't want to see Marriage Story.  My favorite divorce movie was the dark comedy War of the Roses.

You know how there are "feel good" movies? I think Marriage Story falls into the "feel bad" movie category. The first movie I put in the "feel bad" category was Boys Don't Cry. So I get what you're saying about a great, but not a fun movie to watch.

I remember hearing back in the 90's that Brad smelled. 

[MVFrostsMyPie]

Brad knows he could still get laid no matter how much he smells.

ETA: I volunteer as tribute.

Never even knew the Two Popes existed.

Ok, I'll take the hit.  I'll smell him!

[thuganomics85]

Rachel Weisz!  The main reason  I'm sure Daniel Craig isn't that upset that he lost tonight (runner-up is the millions he's made off of Bond.)

[mojoween]

Rachel Weisz looks super classical from necklace to dress.  Smile, Daniel!  She’s a hottie!

Ugh Will Ferrell buzz off creep.

Edited January 6, 2020 by mojoween

[Ohwell]

Will Ferrell is hilarious complimenting Pierce Brosnan.

[scarynikki12]

I like Rachel Weisz’ dress. 

[wallflower75]

Will Farrell, saying what we're all thinking...

[Fostersmom]

Oh god, why Will Ferrell? He's so obnoxious. 

[bmoore4026]

Awww, I was hoping for Knives Out

[Nordly Beaumont]

Yay, Will Ferrell is here to not be funny.

[thuganomics85]

So, the Hollywood Film Press loves.... Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.  Yep, that checks out!

[MVFrostsMyPie]

KFC should seriously consider hiring Pierce as their next Colonel Mustard Sanders, it might help their sales.

Wrong Colonel

Sanders, and I would completely be down for that. 

[bmoore4026]

Again, such a tepid response.

[Ohwell]

Is this thing almost over?  I need to go to bed.

[Thumper]

Colonel Sanders?  Or have you been playing Clue?

Ironically I tried to have KFC today... and they were out of white meat chicken... all kinds. You have 1 thing on your menu. How does this happen? 

[Black Knight]

Three more awards. Actor, Actress and Best Picture - all for the Drama film category.

We still need to do best actress. I'm pulling for Saoirse but I'm thinking it will go to Renee.

It could help sales of the board game Clue as well. Pierce Brosnan in the billiard room with the candlestick. 😉

My kingdom for some KFC. Damn you, Pierce.

Why do I find it completely random that Charlize is presenting Tom this award? Like huh?

This is as wacky as the Jonas Brothers singing Earth, Wind & Fire songs at the Kennedy Center Honors.

Nothing will ever be wackier (or more horrifying) than the Jonas Brothers singing Earth, Wind & Fire at the Kennedy Center Honors

[bmoore4026]

Holy crap, I wasn't expect that big of a Joker win!

[wallflower75]

Haven't seen The Joker, not sure I have any interest in seeing it.  So...eh.

[thuganomics85]

And its Joaquin Phoenix.  I guess we'll see if he becomes the second potrayal of Joker to win an Oscar!

That used to happen at the Church's Chicken here quite frequently years ago. Don't live near it now so not sure if it's still an issue and the short lived one near me closed.

Too bad Pierce and Lauren Graham couldn't have presented together instead of who they each got paired with.

[Ohwell]

No surprise Joaquin won I guess, although I was rooting for Christian Bale.

[mtlchick]

This sounds really odd, but every time I see Joaquin, I get sad that his brother River isn't around to see his success.
