The most exciting Golden Globes in the recent past - at least in terms of surprises and winners - and it didn't actually really happen. Not that I'm too, too upset, as I think it was a great blow they struck and hopefully the threat of this happening to the Oscars will feel a bit more real now, but still. I wasn't really upset by any of the wins, although it looks like the acting frontrunners have shaped up and I don't see that we'll have many big surprises on that front. Why does that happen every year? Why does everyone just seem to unanimously reach this consensus that in the four performance categories, there is just one, maybe two, universally acclaimed performance(s)? I think it's an unfortunate by-product of the shortened awards season. I don't think we'll see another Adrien Brody-style win as long as the Oscars are in February.

I'm reading a book right now on the West Memphis Three that is really angering up my blood. If you've never heard of them and you feel the need for some cleansing rage, check out the wiki or the Paradise Lost documentaries.
