Will precursors be less influential due to low audiences?

They never have been influential. Over and over they pick one winner and oscar picks another. Lets g
RyuseiI don't think so because the people who vote are very likely to watch these shows. Non-voters watching or not watching don't have an influence on the outcome

Worst Category Fraud this year

Daniel Kaluuya.....I saw Judas & the Black Messiah last Saturday and then saw The Little Things
Eddy QOdd how the Globes stood up to Borat and stopped that fraud but let the others slip thru.
I think it was a campaign decision by Amazon to submit for the Comedy Actress category, where Bakalova had an easier shotStarted by:

Her narrative is a complete reaction to everything Borat does but I agree it's debatable. I think the relatStarted by:

How’d the Golden Globes get so powerful?
Sam_Malone
Good question; let me bump this, maybe somebody has a theory here.
RobertPiusBecause it’s a heavily-watched televised event with some element of “prestige.”
That's a good point. In the eighties and nineties (not sure until when exactly) the Globes weren't even on network TV. Just cablStarted by:

Did Glenn Close turn down her Oscar winning role?
dsps84
I read the reason was so she could work with Redford. Silly choice!
AtypicalI watched that link on Glenn Close's career retrospective from before and found it fascinating. I'd never heard of "The Bostonians," so I don't know what Vanessa Redgrave did or didn't do there. "The Natural" is considered as one of Close's weaker Os

How’d Peter O’Toole lose in 1968?
Jeffrey Kare
I've read that less than two weeks after the 1968 Oscars, Time magazine mentioned the Academy's gene
Owl-Always-watchingThere was an article of this once. Cliff Robertson lobbied hard for votes. He smooched tons of voters and had friends lobbied for him. He also knew someone close to the academy forgot if it was wife. He made sure everyone knew about his performance

What year had the most surprises in the acting races?

Maybe 2001? I didn't follow the oscars then and I know none of Denzel, Halle, or Broadbent were SHOC

Did Titanic deserve a screenplay nomination?
M: The Original
No. Its script is pedestrian. James Cameron's directorial prowess is why Titanic works at all.
arodfanHaven’t seen Helena from that lineup but even the rest are quite uninspired, Julie Christie was so random…
Helena was great, Dench was good, the rest aren't that interesting. Overall, a pretty boring category.Started by:
