This post about Oscars 2016 Winners is more about the comments than the list itself, but it's all right for the records, my records as it goes...

Because the Golden Globes are produced by Dick Clark Productions in association with the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, there must be a little bit more objectivity in how the awards are being distributed. You have the nominees list here, so I'm not going to fill the spaces again, with everybody. I like it a lot that one of the most brilliant comedians in Great Britain was chosen yet again to host the … [Read more...]
