The Best Golden Globes Ever!

Despite being reduced to a fancy-looking press conference, as experienced at our house, last night’s Golden Globes were the best ever. After watching the surprisingly good Sarah Connor Chronicles pilot, we switched over to an already recorded copy of the Press Conference. We fast-forwarded through every single extemporaneous bit of commentary and watched a series of clips and award announcements in about 20 minutes. Like Dan, I had no interest in hearing what Billy Bush has to say about anything.

I’m very happy about the Tina Fey win, but awarding a perfectly good movie like Atonement when you have two  movies that are head and shoulders above every other movie released this year really highlights what a farce the whole Golden Globes thing is. They’re awarded by an association of fewer than 90 entertainment journalists. Why their opinion means anything is beyond me. In a category with 6 nominees you could get a plurality with 15 votes. Anyway, There Will Be Blood was robbed.
