Even though I haven't seen The Wrestler, I'm disappointed it wasn't nominated for more awards, because I know it'll be a quality film. Same goes for The Dark Knight, it deserved nominations in Score, Direction, Screenplay and Picture. Very glad Slumdog won multiple awards and I'm satisfied with Ledger getting the Supporting Actor win.
Also, I haven't seen Let the Right One In, but I've heard so so many good things that I'm surprised it wasn't nominated for Best Foreign Picture.

I'm very disappointed that Winslet won over Kristin Scott Thomas for I've Loved You So Long, Winslet is good but her performance in Revolutionary Road was nothing special imo.
I'm very happy about Sally Hawkins winning in her catagory
Ok dude thats SERIOUSLY wacked because I promise I did a search TWICE using Golden Globe Awards and then just Golden Globes and the only thing that came up was stuff about the Oscars. How weird.
I was very upset that Milk and Dark Knight only received one nomination each. Both deserved Best Picture nominations along with more.
Slumdog was a very very good film. It was obvious it would do incredibly well at the Golden Globes, as they are voted on by the Hollywood FOREIGN Press Association. It will do very well at the Oscars too, but it may not sweep the major categories like it did here. I think it will win Best Picture at the Oscars.
I was very happy that Kate Winslet won two awards, that girl deserves it.
Mickey Rourke looks very good in the Wrestler, but I still think the Oscar will go to Sean Penn. The HFPA just hates him because he never bothers to show up to the Golden Globes.
Really happy that Colin Farrel won. He gave a great speech, as did Tina Fey.
I really don't know how Darren Arronofsky wasn't nominated for best Director. How did revolutionary road make best motion picture nomination but the Wrestler didn't?
I guess because Hans Zimmer was nominated for Frost/Nixon he was niminated for the Dark Knight which is just shitty. The score for the Dark Knight was incredible.
and how the hell does Gran Torino get nominated for best original song? That song was AWWWFUL. I thought it was a joke when i first heard it. There is nothing redeeming about that song. The only reason it was nominated is because hollywood is on Eastwoods dick.

Slumdog was a great movie. Also John Adams; I really enjoyed that series. I can understand people having different opinions on movies and television, but someone has got to explain to me why everyone thinks 30 Rock is at all good. I just don't get it's appeal.
I hope all these Winslet fans are not saying she deserved the awards just because she hadn't won any before hand everytime she was nominated... like with Scorsese(sp?) winning his Directing Oscar...
