67th Annual Golden Globes

So all day yesterday I was determined to watch the 67th Annual Golden Globes. A tradition I have mostly kept ever since I was able to comprehend what they really were. I even stuck through and watched when no one was there during the writer's strike which was not as painful as watching the People's Choice awards the same year. Sorry Queen Latifah but sometimes its good just to say no!

So with some protest to the members of my household we watched the show in its entirety, including the mess of the pre-show that NBC had on with that dude from one of those shows and Nick Lachey's girlfriend. It was torture to watch but the worst out of all of it is that why couldn't the people at The Beverly Hills Hilton at least have a tarp outside for the rain. A couple sheets of plastic, come on! And I'm pretty sure that they could have found ways to recycle it. It's not surprise, it does rain in LA. Be prepared next year!

So I would hate to bore anyone with my rendition of the ceremony because there are 5 million other sites doing so but I would just like to chime in a bit on my best parts, worst parts and why I still don't like James Cameron. Yeah I said it!

The Best Parts:

Right off the bat Mo'nique winning for Best Supporting Actress. I have not seen Precious yet, I really want to but I am a crier, a loud one and I feel like I don't want to embarrass myself in public. From what I heard and the clips that I seen I don't think that anyone would be able to leave that film in one piece. Her speech was beautiful and genuine and greatly deserved! Bravo!

Second part.... GLEE! That's my show! I love everything about it and I love how they got the recognition that it did. It's an awesome show and truly hilarious. And its great to see a show about young people win an award. Super!

Third part- Dexter's Michael C. Hall winning and John Lithgow. I'm super excited because I just started watching Dexter before Christmas and fell in love and most importantly Michael C. Hall is a genius. John Lithgow was as creepy as Dexter and it was nicely done. Can't wait for season 5.

By far my favorite part of the show..... The Hangover winning for Best Comedy.



Genius! Yeah, I will admit I am not crazy over The Hangover like most people I know. It's not apart of my vernacular and I don't have a crazy shenanigans nor do I aspire to but credit has to be given when credit was due. It was a funny movie and kudos. But seriously Mike Tyson up there on the stage accepting an award for a movie is truly EPIC!

Other highlights: Meryl Streep, UP and Drew Barrymore winning. :)

Lowlights:

Chloe whatever her last name, her dress, her speech about her dress, and her in general.



Yeah I probably would have been upset too and if I was the  designer I probably would have passed out but seriously lets calm down a bit. You're an actress. Act like you're cool with it and then unleash all heck out backstage. I'm sure that's what you do on your show, that I unfortunately don't watch. But from what I gather from it your character has to act like she is cool with her husband having two other wives right? So pretend like your character! It will be okay :)

True Blood not winning anything :( Boo. Well yeah, this season was okay compared to last. But whats so great about Mad Men? I will answer that soon, It's queued up on my Netflix.

Poor Joseph Gordon-Levitt. I recently watched (500) Days of Summer and it seriously messed me up badly. For anyone who hasn't seen it, it probably won't have the same effect on you. I'm just weird and pathetic. But it was a great movie and he was wonderful in it. I hope he at least gets nominated for an Oscar. If you haven't seen the movie go watch it!



Lastly! James "I'm going to quote a line from my movie even if its my own made up language" Cameron. I did not see Avatar. I really have no desire to see Avatar, just like I had no desire to see Titanic. I was actually forced to see it when it came out on VHS (two VHS tapes I might add) by my best friend and as soon as it was popped into the VCR I was planning for it to sink from the get-go. But don't get me wrong, I liked Terminator and Terminator 2.

James Cameron just bugs me and Avatar to me is like Titanic all over again just in space or whatever planet or year it is in. Seriously when they were playing the theme I thought it was Celine Dion but then I realized Leona Lewis was there and I put two and two together. But seriously sounded like My Heart Will Go On.... gosh James "quote a line" Cameron. Was he all like "I'll be back" back in the day?? If I was coherent back then I think I would have been more furious than I am now.



So that's how I spent my Sunday evening. And since the awards were simultaneously with the east coast, it was super early and I watched Good Burger on Nickelodeon. Remember when kid shows and movies were good?? Not saying that Good Burger was award worthy but certainly better than Hannah Montana! Just saying!



What was your take? And is Avatar really worth it?
