A few things on my mind after watching the 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards last night…the first awards ceremony of the year!
1. Yay Glee! (Best Television Series – Comedy or Musical)
2. I NEVER wanted to see Avatar – until now. I was not interested in a long, science fiction movie with blue people. But after James Cameron was a guest on The Oprah Show on Friday, he changed my mind. Well, okay, OPRAH changed my mind. She went nuts over the film. And now that it just won the Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture – Drama, I’m making plans to see it.
3. How cute are Drew Barrymore and Justin Long? At first it seemed like such a weird match to have one of Hollywood’s power players dating Warren Cheswick from Ed. But now it seems…nice. Drew looked AMAZING in her champagne colored Versace gown and I was so happy she won the Golden Globe for Grey Gardens. I remember watching the HBO movie one lazy, rainy afternoon while the kiddies were napping. The 2 hours just flew by. I was mesmerized by the film and Drew’s performance.
4. How cute are Sandra Bullock and Jesse James? Again, they seem like an unlikely couple that just works. She has really paid her dues in Hollywood so it was great to see her win Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture – Drama. I need to see The Blind Side now too.
5. The Hangover won for Best Motion Picture – Comedy or Musical. This movie has received SO MUCH HYPE. I couldn’t even get Netflix to send it to me because of the “very long wait.” Hubbie and I had to buy it on pay-per-view last week so I could finally see it. CONFESSION: It was just…alright.
6. Meryl Streep = Great Actress and Class Act.
There were many movies and TV shows that won last night that I have not seen. I consider myself pretty darn savvy when it comes to TV shows and movies, but every time I watch these award shows I once again realize there is so much that I DON’T watch. I did see The Good Wife and thought Julianna Margulies was really great, but then I just gave up. I love The Office, Hung, Cougar Town. All were nominated, but none of them won. I have seen 30 Rock. I know I’m in the minority here, but I just don’t get it.
Finally, on a fun note, I hope the rumors are true. They would make a super hot couple.
