Why would Globe wins matter this year? Since the voting body is not industry, the only impact they’ve had historically is giving winners exposure via the televised ceremony. That didn’t happen this year. These are just glorified critics awards lmao, don’t read into them

The last Comedy Globe winner from a Best Picture nominee to miss an Oscar nom was Kathleen Turner for Prizzi’s Honor in 1985

Jessica Chastain in The Eyes of Tammy Faye strikes me as one of those performances that starts strong with precursors but fades away as award season goes on. She’s in a film with mixed reviews and little support outside of her, she doesn’t have a notable personal narrative, and she’s playing a famous person that the public has only a modest attachment to. She reminds me of Tom Hanks in Sully, Johnny Depp in Black Mass, Leonardo DiCaprio in J. Edgar, and herself in Molly’s Game.

Usually, performances like Chastain’s are replaced in the lineups by performances with personal narrative and a supported film. This year, I think it’s going to be either Rachel Zegler in West Side Story or Alana Haim in Licorice Pizza. She’s definitely not a lock to be nominated, and I’m predicting her to be snubbed.

I know I’m in the minority but I did not like Spencer, especially Kristen Stewart in it. Before anybody comes from me, I love Kristen Stewart as an actress, but I never really bought her as Diana. I thought she struggled with the accent and the performance did not feel lived-in to me. I don’t get what people see in this performance, or the film, for that matter

Friday Night Lights! I went in thinking it was going to be basic and quaint, but it is very well-done and sophisticated!

I personally feel like the show kicked into high gear rather abruptly. I’m enjoying it enough that I don’t care, despite all of its cliches. I will say that there are a lot of narrative threads, and I’m not convinced that the show will be able to resolve them all, but we’ll see.

I’m glad she had huge exposure with “Drivers License” to help her out, because it sounds like Sour is going to be a mixed bag of genres. It’s not a bad thing artistically, but not the best for carving out a path. Conan Gray’s Kid Krow suffered from genre confusion, which is why I don’t think he’s been able to make his breakthrough.

Willem Dafoe’s role in Nightmare Alley is pretty small (at least compared to Jenkins), and I can’t find any clues about the size of his role in The Northman. The Card Counter probably won’t be a big player anyway, and he has a cameo in The French Dispatch. I’d say his best bet is The Northman, but honestly he’ll probably have to wait for 2022’s Poor Things, directed by Yorgos Lanthimos.

The Salesman and Christopher Plummer in All the Money in the World come to mind first

Sound of Metal is poorly paced and Paul Raci was distractingly amateurish
