The day has come where tv stars run into movie stars and vice versa. It’s the Golden Globes! Will Angelina Jolie accost Joel McHale at the bar and talk about how awesome Community is? Will Amy Poehler and Kristen Wiig run into Glenn Close and Sandra Bullock in the women’s room? Men’s room?
Jen and I add our scientific two cents of who should win, who we want to win and who we don’t care for. Read on!
BEST MOTION PICTURE – DRAMA
Jen chooses The Descendants as she really liked it and well, it was the only movie she watched on the list.
Chris chooses The Help, not because she watched it or read the book, but because it’s the only female-driven movie on the list.
BEST PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTRESS IN A MOTION PICTURE – DRAMA
Jen thinks Viola Davis for The Help will win and votes for her.
Chris thinks Rooney Mara will win because she shows her boobies, though she’s heard fantastic things about Glenn Close’s role. So Glenn Close it is.
BEST PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTOR IN A MOTION PICTURE – DRAMA
Jen chooses George Clooney for The Descendants.
Chris hasn’t seen any of these movies but the thought of Michael Fassbender (Shame) naked has her voting for Magneto.
BEST MOTION PICTURE – COMEDY OR MUSICAL
Jen votes for Bridesmaids!
Chris agrees – Bridesmaids! I mean come on.
BEST PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTRESS IN A MOTION PICTURE – COMEDY OR MUSICAL
Jen chooses Kristen Wiig.
Chris agrees – Kristen Wiig.
BEST PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTOR IN A MOTION PICTURE – COMEDY OR MUSICAL
Jen chooses Ryan Gosling for Crazy Stupid Love. (She blurted his name as soon as his name came up as I listed them out.)
Chris chooses Ryan Gosling too! Did you see him in Crazy Stupid Love? Look at those abs.
BEST ANIMATED FEATURE FILM
Jen refuses to vote for this category.
Chris thinks Tin Tin is going to win, even though she has no interest in seeing any of these movies.
BEST FOREIGN LANGUAGE FILM
Jen votes for The Kid With a Bike from Belgium.
Chris thinks Angelina is going to get it just because of star power: In the Land of Blood and Honey. It might be depressing and suck but whatever, that hasn’t stopped people from winning things.
BEST PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTRESS IN A SUPPORTING ROLE IN A MOTION PICTURE
Jen chooses Jessica Chastain to win for The Help.
Chris thinks she will win too - Jessica Chastain.
BEST PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTOR IN A SUPPORTING ROLE IN A MOTION PICTURE
Jen votes for Albert Brooks in Drive.
Chris agrees – Albert Brooks. He’s a mean mean man.
BEST DIRECTOR – MOTION PICTURE
Jen chooses Alexander Payne for The Descendants.
Chris thinks Woody Allen and Martin Scorsese always win, so she’s going with Michel Hazanavicius for The Artist.
BEST SCREENPLAY – MOTION PICTURE
Jen chooses The Descendants.
Chris shrugs. Forfeit.
BEST ORIGINAL SCORE – MOTION PICTURE
Jen forfeits.
Chris was meh about Trent Reznor’s score (Social Network was better) and thinks John Williams for War Horse will win. Star Wars FTW! Oh wait, it’s not 1977…
BEST ORIGINAL SONG – MOTION PICTURE
Jen forfeits. Hahahha!
Chris would forfeit but noticed Mary J. Blige’s name. She gets Chris’s vote forever. The Help. No more drama, Mary!

Jen’s choosing Angela Chase’s new show Homeland.
Chris is sticking to her nerd guns and choosing Game of Thrones.
BEST PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTRESS IN A TELEVISION SERIES – DRAMA
Jen chooses Victoria “Superbitch” Grayson, Madeline Stowe for Revenge.
Chris is surprised by Jen’s choice and votes for Mireille Enos for The Killing. Y’all need to put that on your Netflix.
BEST PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTOR IN A TELEVISION SERIES – DRAMA
Jen chooses Damian Lewis for Homeland.
Chris hasn’t seen Homeland, but doesn’t want the others to win. Damian Lewis.
BEST TELEVISION SERIES – COMEDY OR MUSICAL
Jen is writing in her winners: Community; Parks & Rec; and Happy Endings.
Chris is laughing at this and agrees – Community FTW. None of the nominees deserve it.
