Golden Globe nominees.

Random thoughts:

- Biggest shock is no Deadwyler.

- Second biggest shock is Women Talking massively underperforming. Only getting Screenplay and Score.

- They REALLY loved The Banshees of Inisherin. They pretty much nominated it for every possible thing.

[emmygrammyoscartony]

They also really loved the fuck out of "Elvis" and "Babylon."

But God, I hate the Globes.

[emmygrammyoscartony]

Also, no Will Smith nor Jennifer Lawrence. I think they are both officially done.

[eurocheese]

Biggest callouts for me: Claire Foy missing while both EEAAO supporting actresses get in; Triangle of Sadness, The Whale, Pinocchio and The Woman King missing BP despite 11 slots; Paul Mescal finally getting a nod from a "major" awards body.

[emmygrammyoscartony]

I still think Ana De Armas can happen and take that fifth slot.
