tsk, just two nominations for into the wild. but rightly so, but i was hoping for best actor, best directing and best actor in supporting role.
Seems like Cher's meal got the best pic nom by a nose and...has 7 films been nominated before? IIRC I've seen 6 but not 7, Mac?
Boo-urns to the foreign press for not nominating Jonny Greenwood, the snub of directing doesn't surprise me at all.

Quote from: ReutersBecause of a tie in voting, seven dramatic nominees were picked, rather than the usual five.
take out Scott add Anderson, take out Travolta add Holbrook, take out anyone and add Greenwood.
Golden Globe nominees speak out
Nominees share their reactions

"Tim (Burton)'s assistant gave us the news. We're in the hospital because I'm supposed to have a baby tomorrow. It comes at a time when there's a larger event happening, an event almost as large as my stomach right now. (Stephen) Sondheim's a big challenge and learning to sing in three months was difficult but the material was so fantastic and my passion for Sondheim and the part got me through it. The part was so well written, you can't really go wrong, though I knew I had to take it in a different direction than Angela Lansbury. I've been a fan of Sondheim since I came out of the womb myself. At the moment I'm concentrating on one contraction at a time. It's a long journey. I don't know about the ceremony. We haven't really gotten that far. I think we've got a big thing to get through first and then we'll see."
-Helena Bonham Carter, nommed for actress, comedy/musical for "Sweeney Todd"
* * *
"It's a film that treats its audience like they're clever and have intelligence. That's not something I see all the time. It engages your heart and has a emotional and impactful punch but not at the expense of your brain.
"I try to keep my head pretty low but (success) can freak you out a bit. The decisions that I make over my life haven't really changed. I just do more flying around the world."
(On crossing picket lines): "I don't think I'd want to do that. It's an environment I wouldn't want to stick my nose into. I'm not from this country and for me to stick my nose and throw my small weight around wouldn't be right."
- James McAvoy, drama actor, "Atonement"
* * *
"It's lovely. I was actually at the Today show when the nominations were announced. I'm so excited and I'm so happy the film got three nominations and Diablo (Cody) got recognized. Her screenplay is one of the best I've ever read. I never thought it would lead to all these awards because that's not why I'm an actor and that's not how I pick roles. It's one of those things where everything clicked. I have a dinner tonight and then I head back to Nova Scotia where I'm sure there'll be a celebration of sorts. [As for the ceremony,] I'm completely supportive of the writers and I hope it's resolved soon in a completely fair way."
- Ellen Page, nommed for actress, comedy/musical for "Juno"
(Film) Juno
* * *
"My agent Brian Silberall from CAA called me at whatever the hell time it was. It's wonderful that so many of us have been recognized. We were all in agreement that we wanted to be as faithful in spirit to the novel as possible, because we respect it. I'm not sure whether or not I'll attend the ceremony but I'm going to take advice and see what develops, but I'm very aware of the circumstances."
- Christopher Hampton, nommed for screenplay for "Atonement"
* * *
"This whole year has been a new experience. I'll probably get a good look at it after the dust settles. It's hard to take praise without sharing without the director. No perf happens with just the actor."
-Casey Affleck, supporting actor, "The Assassination of Jesse James"
* * *
"We tried to do a show where people wouldn't know what was going to happen, where story structure was unique. Every single actor on the show is at the top of their game. The show depends on their preparation and understanding of their characters. As a writer I never write around any of these people.
"It feels incredibly different than 'The Sopranos.' To me, this is very personal.
"I will not cross the picket line. I'm mystified at the aggressive stance from the producers, shocked by it. It's a crucial period in entertainment."
- Matt Weiner, exec producer, drama series "Mad Men"
* * *
"It's a great surprise. I was in bed and I got called at 5:40 by my publicist. There's no one I'd rather speak to that early. The film opens a week from tomorrow so it's really nice having something like this before the movie opens. It just gives it a little extra push. I loved working with these actors and working with Mike Nichols was like getting paid to go to grad school. He's the greatest and I just loved every minute of it. I'll wait and hear and see if others are going to the actual ceremony but it would certainly be a shame if they didn't. Charlie just had transplant surgery but he was at the premiere the other night and he looked great. He's been very supportive of the movie."
- Aaron Sorkin, nommed for screenplay for "Charlie Wilson's War"
* * *
"It's nice. Vlad Ivanov and I are in Jerusalem and we were very happy to get this news here. We have a screening tonight but we already started celebrating. What we're very happy about is how the nominations will bring attention to the American audience. This is a film made for the public. Most likely we're going to be in for the Golden Globes ceremony because we're going to be in town for the LA Critics Awards."
- Cristian Mungiu, nommed for foreign-language film for "4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days"
* * *
"I always had a feeling it was more a foreign film, so it didn't surprise me that much. It's rather European, with no American characters in it.
"Viggo (Mortensen) and I start on a high level. We phone each other all the time and our gears meshed very smoothly. He's so detailed and a wonderful combination of calculation and spontaneity."
"It would be very hard for me to cross a WGA picket line. Everybody will have the same problem. It's very unfornuate and an issue that won't go away.
- David Cronenberg, director of drama "Eastern Promises"
* * *
"In the space of about five minutes I got 14 phone calls. It's been amazing. I just spoke to Matt (Weiner) and we were both laughing that it was almost two years ago when we were doing the pilot.
"You handle success by being the same person you were your whole life or you turn into a giant asshole."
"There's no way I would cross a picket line. Not only in respect to Matt, but I'm in 100% agreement with him in this fight. It would be a drag not to go but you have to take a stand."
- Jon Hamm, best actor in TV drama, "Mad Men"
* * *
"Feels fantastic not only the show but Ted (Danson) and Rose (Byrne) too. I took it on the strength of one script."
"I take great pride in the fact tht I did TV in the beginning when people thought it would ruin my film career. I've always had a great respect for television, and I particularly like it now, as it has some of the best writing aorund. I love the pace of TV and the mental challenge. You have to learn lines a lot faster.
"I would never cross a picket line."
- Glenn Close, nominated for TV drama actress, "Damages"
* * *
"I'm thrilled. (Edith) Piaf went right into people's hearts and she showed so much emotion. Most of the people in France know Piaf's songs, but they don't know much about her life."
"It was difficult because we had to find the right balance of makeup and light, and it was a hard job to make a 30-year-old look that old. For me, after the tech problems were resolved, it was so much fun."
- Marion Cotillard, actress comedy/musical, "La Vie en Rose"
* * *
"It never gets old. It's always exciting that the hard work of everyone gets paid off."
- Shonda Rhimes, exec producer, TV drama "Grey's Anatomy"
* * *
"After I heard, I made the call back to my mom.
"I pray the strike is over because you don't want actors rambling on. It'll be all about what we feel. We need them. None of us would be there today without them."
- Amy Ryan, supporting actress nominee, "Gone Baby Gone"
* * *
"I got a call around 5:30 but I was up believe it or not. I think it's such an unbelievable gift to be able to play a character that you can jump into and completely commit to. The greatest compliment I've received was from Tim Robbins who taught me comedia del arte, and its this kind of method of acting that allows me to fully enter the character and get pretty big and expansive with him. He works all aspects of the spectrum.
Regarding the WGA strike and crossing a picket line to attend: "I don't know about whether or not I'll be attending because to be honest with you, I don't know a lot about the rules and limitations of what is happening. I need to look into it. Writers are kind of these unsung heroes. People don't see how much these guys work and they're just trying to cover their bases for themselves and for the future. I hope they get what they deserve and I'll do anything I can to help that."
- Jeremy Piven, nominated for supporting actor in a TV series for "Entourage"
* * *
"I'm damn well. I'm thrilled and I'm very proud of the film. It's nice to be nominated. I was taking my afternoon nap. I woke up and there all these messages on my phone and then the fun began. People are very genereous when these things happen. I'm down in the country, so I might open a bottle of champagne with my wife. I like to take these things coolly rather than get overexcited."
Regarding the WGA strike: "It's quite different when you're not living in L.A. but I'm really upset for the younger writers with mortgages and loans and I support them fully. I'm not talking to anybody about work."
- Ronald Harwood, nommed for screenplay for "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly"
* * *
"They all feel good. You can't get enough of this recogntion. I'm very proud of this picture. It's so unique and was so unlikely to be made as a movie.
"It's difficult to take any material from stage to screen, and singing (Stephen) Sondheim is a special feat. He's so difficult to sing. The wonderful thing about this is that I didn't consider it a musical, but a method of storytelling. It's very operatic."
- Richard Zanuck, producer, best musical/comedy, "Sweeney Todd"
* * *
"I'm over the moon. Its exciting! C'mon, its thrilling! It's also a good party I understand. You can't ever imagine that a movie this size is going to have hype." Regarding the Writers' Guild strike, Smith said, "Our hope is that there's gonna be some sort of dispensation. Every day we're hoping they work something out but we'll have to see. We'll be playing close attention to that."

"I'm in shock. This is going to sound weird but it's the truth. I'm working on three movies so I haven't thought about this stuff much, but I couldn't sleep and "It Happened One Night" was on so I started watching that and then suddenly the blackberry started going off so I wound up catching the live announcement. Call it "It Happened One Morning." Obviously I couldn't be prouder of the cast. It was a joint effort and as far as I'm concerned it's already a great win.
"I'm going to be celebrating by being on set until 3 in the morning. We're shooting a night scene in the rain and it's going to be a nightmare, but I'll be doing what I do best, which is work, or at least what I do most.
"I think it would be a smack in the face if there was striking at the ceremony because it would be undermining the achievements of their own guild and that would be reprehensible. I think it's a horribly counterintuitive idea to strike something that celebrates their own membership."
- Adam Shankman, nommed for motion picture, comedy/musical for "Hairspray"
* * *
"I couldn't really believe it. It's a nice sense of calm. I think it's a great novel and, to be honest, I was incredibly lucky to work on the material. It's a story that speaks to us on a personal level.
"I think we were, as a team, very passionate about the film and story. I don't think we looked up from the little world we created around ourselves.
"You need to make all actors feel loved, respected and supported. That applies to the 12-year-old Saoirse Ronan or a slightly older Vanessa Redgrave. Acting is an exposing and vulnerable job. You need to make them feel safe."

"I was sitting here at Focus with about 35 very happy colleagues. Producer Paul Wester actually has a credit on both 'Atonement' and 'Eastern Promises' but you count yourself very lucky to be sitting in my chair."
On Eastern Promises' nomination: "I know it's a surprise out there but for us, it's dead center with everything we've been hearing. While we're grateful and excited, it's not that much of a shock to us. Every time we screen this picture, the Hollywood community has told us that it's a masterpiece."
"I truly believe that 'Atonement' is the definition of an all-categories movie. In our business they don't come more emotional or smarter than that film. It has it all. It uses its intelligence to connect with its audience."
- James Schamus, head of Focus Features which led all studios with nominations
* * *
"I was in my hotel room in Toronto where I'm rehearsing for a concert. Ironically, this is where the movie was made and a year and a half later, here I am nominated for a Golden Globe. I'm totally shocked and I'm dying inside. This whole experience has just been life-changing. It's just been fabulous and wonderful."
- Nikki Blonsky, nommed for actress in a comedy/musical for "Hairspray"
* * *
"I've been lucky to make three films the way I wanted to make them. This one always felt more like an international film than an American one. We thought it would do better overseas than it did here.
"One of the messages of the film that most critics understood was that it wasn't anti-critic, but was saying if you're a critic or artist, don't get far away from what you love, and if, as a director, if you're focused on box office or awards and not the film itself, you'll take your eye off the ball.
"And most importantly, this nomination shouldn't be taken as an endorsement for rats cooking our meals for us."
- Brad Bird nommed for best animated film, "Ratatouille"
* * *
"I'm in New York and I haven't slept all night. Everybody was yelling and I was so tired because I took a red-eye from San Francisco. I mean, I'm also happy, I just don't have the energy to yell myself. Animation is not a genre, it's a medium, so it fits me very well. We always felt that "Persepolis" was a universal movie that anyone could relate to and understand, so I think this nomination confirms that. You never know why something works but when it does, it's delightful."
- Marjane Satrapi, nommed for foreign-language film "Persepolis"
* * *
"I was sleeping when my agent called me. I was very surprised because I didn't know the nominations were today. I plan on having a great dinner and some good wine. It's an important film so I felt pressure to do a good job."
- Alberto Iglesias, nommed for song for "The Kite Runner"
* * *
"What helped contribute to the success of the show is the actors were willing to take some chances and be bold in a character-driven legal thriller. When that alchemy comes together, you don't know if it will work or not but it was an interest to us."
- Todd Kessler, nominated for best TV drama, "Damages"More than one option(Person) Todd A Kessler
(Person) Todd Kessler
* * *
"It's so interesting that a couple of years ago we were accused of bringing the musical back with 'Chicago,' and now you have this year with 'Sweeney Todd,' 'Hairpsray' and 'Across the Universe.' There was no musical for so many years and we're so proud of what Chicago has done for the musical."
- Craig Zadan, nommed for musical/comedy "Hairspray"
* * *
"It feels amazing. Two years ago I wouldn't have thought anything like this could happen."
- Saoirse Ronan, nominated for supporting actress, "Atonement"
* * *
"It's tremendous as we weren't on the pundits lists and didn't have big ads. I feel in a way that we were the engine that could. People vote from their heart and I feel very gratified"
"People come in with a prejudice about messing with the sacred Beatles, but they all loved the movie. We got tremendous support from that community. When so many movies are telling about the reality of war, I'm very proud to be putting out a movie with relatively unknown actors that kind of spark part of our lives."
- Julie Taymor, nominated for best comedy/musical, "Across the Universe"
* * *
"Opening the film, you hope she'll get awards and noms but you can get lulled into all this, so, yes, it's great to actually see it happen. Opening in June is early and risky but the reaction was great.
"The fact that she's been getting around town and meeting people helped. In 'Monster,' when Charlize Theron won the Oscar, the physical change was so great, and then people around Marion saw she's not hunched over, so that helped."
- Bob Berney, producer of "La Vie en Rose," on actress nominee Marion Cotillard
* * *
"I think we're getting better. The HFPA is astute in recognition of new programs, of what's new and different.
"The difference in tone between last year and this year is big. Last year House was melancholy in the Christmas episode and in this year's episode, it's as good as it gets for House. He's a warmer, playful House."
- Katie Jacobs, exec producer, TV drama nominee, "House"
* * *
"Ever since Cannes Cristian [Mungiu] has been all over the world, but I think it's indicative of the quality of the film and the reaction globally. I hesitate to use the term masterpiece for anything but this is a film that works on so many different levels, from the direction to the cinematography to the performances, it's just amazing work and we're thrilled that the HFPA recognized that and acknowledged it as well. We never anticipated this when we saw the film at Cannes at its first screening. We didn't walk out saying 'we must have this film,' we walked out and we were all really moved and nobody could get the movie out of their heads. It sticks with you and you can't shake it. We didn't think it was going to win the Palme d'or, we just thought it was a great film and one that our distribution model was designed for. It falls right in our sweet spot and we're lucky to have it. Cristian is an immensely talented filmmaker and this is his masterpiece. We couldn't be more thrilled."
- Jonathan Sehring, IFC topper on the foreign-language film nom for "4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days"
"I'm having a good morning, right? I was at home when my sister called me. We're really happy. The movie was a big undertaking and it was a huge collaboration between Julie and the crew and Sony and Revolution. We're pleasantly surprised this morning and thrilled for the recognition. It's like Christmas morning, getting so many nice calls and e-mails. It's a great year for movies and we're in great company. It's just exciting. And we got a Grammy nomination! We'll take it all. It' just been an amazing pleasure and we weren't necessarily counting on it. Some people have great passion for the film and it's always hard trying to make something original like Julie did, so I'm glad it spoke to the HFPA."
- Jennifer Todd, nommed for motion picture, comedy/musical for "Across the Universe"
"It's very exciting. The typewriter being incorporated into the score was something we talked about very early on. The idea as it is now in the film developed over several conversations. (Director) Joe (Wright) set the challenge and he sent me away with this seed of an idea and gave me license to develop it. The very first thing that happened was taking his suggestion and sampling the typewriter just to see how you could make music with it. And then we had to see if it would fit with the rest of the music. I think it gives it an extra layer of truth and it encourages you to question whose truth you're watching. The typewriter is a reminder of that and it becomes more powerful at the end of the film."
- Dario Marianelli, nommed for score for "Atonement"
I haven't seen Juno, I'm sure it's good... but fuck Diablo Cody. We shouldn't be encouraging her... with her bullshit, calculated hipster name and persona... she should be writing reviews of Les Savy Fav shows for Pitchfork.
I didn't like her when I first heard about her bullshit novel, and I don't like her now.
Two years from now she'll probably be the head writer on some failing Showtime dramady.
No, she won't work for Showtime, because she's a good writer. Sorry.
What is Cronenberg talking about? Did I miss something? Foreign what?
No Lost?
And Zodiac? Never heard of it.

that's so true what casey said. i hope when DDL picks up his award he makes it known that his recognition is implied recognition of PTA, and not in a meaningless "i'd like to thank James Mangold" kind of way.

haha, yeah he seems to be under the impression that he got nominated in the foreign category.

SAG: Actors likely to snub Golden Globes
Golden Globe-nominated actors are expected to snub the awards in support of striking Hollywood writers, the actors union said Friday, jeopardizing one of the entertainment industry's signature showcases.
NBC, however, said it was sticking by its plans to air the Jan. 13 ceremony, despite the uncertainty about how much — if any — star power the Globes could muster.
"The network plans to move forward with the broadcast at this point," NBC spokeswoman Rebecca Marks said, adding that it has yet to be determined which actors will participate.
Screen Actors Guild President Alan Rosenberg made the announcement after canvassing nominees during the past several weeks.
"There appears to be unanimous agreement that these actors will not cross" the picket lines to present or accept an award, he said in a prepared statement.
The Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which organizes the awards, said it was wrestling with the "unfortunate predicament."
"We are making every effort to work out a solution that will permit the Golden Globes to take place with the creative community present to participate," Jorge Camara, the group's president, said in a statement.
The association hoped to announce a resolution Monday, Camara said.
The writers strike, which began Nov. 5, has broad implications for the way Hollywood does business. Whatever deal is struck by writers on payment for shows offered on the Internet could affect talks with actors and directors, whose contracts expire next June.
The Golden Globes show brings in a reported $5 million for the association and millions more in advertising revenue for NBC.
On Friday, a dozen publicity firms representing what they called a majority of Golden Globe-nominated actors, writers and directors, as well as many stars invited to appear as presenters, released a letter sent to NBC Universal Chief Executive Jeff Zucker.
"After much discussion with our clients, we have concluded the vast majority of the talent we represent are not comfortable crossing a picket line," the letter said.
The stars would appear only if NBC and dick clark productions, which produces the show, reaches an interim agreement with the writers guild, the publicists told Zucker.
The Clark company lashed out at the guild in a statement Friday, citing repeated efforts to reach an interim agreement akin to the union deal with another independent company, Worldwide Pants, which produces David Letterman's show.
"We are disappointed that the WGA has refused to bargain with us in good faith. It is apparent that we are being treated differently from similarly situated production companies," the Clark company said.
An e-mail request for guild comment was not immediately answered.
Meanwhile, writers guild President Patric M. Verrone lauded the move by actors and said the "entire awards show season is being put in jeopardy by the intransigence of a few big media corporations."
In his statement, Verrone urged studios to resume talks that broke off Dec. 7.
The Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers, which represents the studios in negotiations, did not immediately respond to an e-mail request for comment.
The Writers Guild of America had refused to grant a waiver to allow its members to work on the Globes, the People's Choice Awards and the prestigious Academy Awards.
A total of 72 actors are among this year's Golden Globe nominees. The Hollywood Foreign Press Association has repeatedly tried to seek the blessing of the writers guild.
The actors union said previously that the choice to attend was a personal one that its members would make for themselves.
In his statement Friday, Rosenberg also weighed in on the late-night talk shows, which are back on the air. Some are working without writers, while others made deals with the writers guild.
Rosenberg stopped short of pressing actors to skip the picketed shows, like Jay Leno's "Tonight."
"We urge our members to appear on the two programs that have independent agreements with the WGA, 'The Late Show with David Letterman' and `Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson,'" he said.
Actors who appear on other shows have to cross picket lines, he said.
That creates "the same situation that has led to the consensus among actors to skip the Golden Globes," Rosenberg said.
Golden Globes axed, replaced by press conference: LA Times
This year's Golden Globes ceremony is to be cancelled after actors vowed to boycott the event in support of striking Hollywood writers, the Los Angeles Times reported on its website on Monday.
The Times, citing an email sent by broadcasters to studios, reported that the traditional televised dinner and prize presentation had been scrapped in favor of a press conference and a scaled-back red carpet event.
The fate of the Golden Globes -- due to be held in Beverly Hills on Sunday -- had been hanging in the balance ever since striking writers vowed to erect picket lines around the awards show last week.
On Friday, the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) announced that its members would not cross picket lines set up by writers, who are locked in a bitter dispute with film and television producers.
The actors union's decision immediately called into question plans for the black-tie dinner and awards presentations which are normally televised live by US broadcaster NBC.
According to the Times report, the Golden Globes' organisers the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) had reached a compromise deal that would allow winners to receive their awards informally on Sunday.
The victors would then be announced in a televised press conference instead of the usual ceremony.
Hollywood screenwriters have been on strike since November 5 after the WGA and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) failed to agree terms for a new contract that expired in October.
Negotiations have foundered over the writers' demands for an increased share of profits from Internet and new media sales.
The two-month strike has forced the suspension of numerous television series as well as the postponement of work on several Hollywood films.
haha.

haha.
On the other hand, our chance to see PTA giving a speech if he wins something just went down the drain, which reminded me of this...
Bart: People, people! It's time we all discussed the pool safety rules!
Kids: Jump, Bart, jump! Jump, Bart, jump!
Bart: You got it!
Nelson: Hey, Bart! Your epidermis is showing.
Bart: It is? [Bart falls, starts yelling]
Nelson: See, "epidermis" means your hair. So technically it's true. That's what makes it so funny.
Pardon me a moment --[at Bart] Ha ha!
Milhouse: Hey Nelson, he's really hurt. I think he broke his leg.
Nelson: I said, "Ha ha"!
I'm not a Simpsons fan but I appreciate that episode. That's the rear window'ish episode, right?
And PTA ain't winning no Golden Globe. Auteurs like him don't win Golden Globe's. They lose them.
We shouldn't want him to win one either. That would mean he's sold out and started catering to the masses.

DDL won for Best Actor but not Blood for Best Picture (atonewho?) no noms for directing/writing/score means the Globes are a total joke to begin with.
fuck them.
yeah that sucks. same bullshit as every year but without the fun of watching the show. oh well, glad to see all the schnabel recognition. :yabbse-thumbup:
i'm really looking forward to DDL's oscar speech.
Who cares about the movies. You can't get mad over shit you already expected, but I kinda want to watch Mad Men now. The previews looked great but I never got around to watching the show. I hate to say the Golden Globes are motivation for me to watch anything, but they might just be.
Yay Tina Fey!!
Other than the obvious TWBB dissing, I'm not as mortified by these as I normally am.
Will Samantha Morton get Oscar dissed too? Yes
Aren't the Golden Globe winners usually a pretty good indication of what will win at the Oscars? If so, then expect CMBB to be shafted again. But really, who gives a shit anyways? It took Scorsese 1010312024 films to finally get recognized.
i heard only 10 or 11 people actually vote for the globes. seriously. no country is the front-runner for the oscs.
Focus on the guild victories for good idea of who and what will win at the Oscars. The producers guild nominations were just announced. That will be the lead up to Oscar's Best Picture winner. Golden Globes don't do well to predict Oscar.
