Golden Globes

The Golden Globes were last night and instead of doing a long re-cap of the three hour event. I am just going to highlight my favorite and least favorite moments of the show. Chad’s least favorite moment? The entire three hours.

Best Acceptance Speech—Kate Winslet, both of them. She was so genuine and sincere. I loved her true emotion. It was superb. I nearly got chocked up when she gushed over her love for Leo.

Worst Acceptance Speech—Collin Farrell. Ugh…it was so self-serving and went on and on and on.
Funniest Moment—Tie between Sacha Baron Cohen before presenting the award for Best Comedy and Ricky Gervais before presenting nominee Happy-Go-Lucky. Also, Tina Fey’s acceptance speech. This women is a comic genius on par with Lucille Ball and Carol Burnett.

Least Funniest Moment—Seth Rogan making cocaine jokes. At least, he looked decent. He’s lost a lot of weight.

Biggest Surprise—Benjamin Button walks away with zero wins.

Least Surprising Moment—30 Rock cleans up the comedy category with wins for Tina Fey, Alec Baldwin and Best Comedy. And Heath Ledger’s win for The Dark Knight…he deserved it.

Most Overly Shown Couple—Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. They got more air time than anyone and neither of them won anything. I am so sick of staring at their perfect faces. It makes me sick.
Biggest Disappointment—I wanted to see Leonardo DiCaprio win for Revolutionary Road.

Movies I now want to see more than ever…The Wrestler and Slumdog Millionaire. I think The Wrestler will be good and I need to see what all the fuss is about with Slumdog. A movie about the Indian version of Who Wants to be a Millionaire is cleaning up at these award shows…what gives?

For a complete list of all the winners…
