Golden Globes Love Gay Cowboys

Hey guys, it's Donnie...So the notoriously silly Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced the nominations for this year's Golden Globe Awards. This coming a day after most local film critics' associations (LA, Boston, NY) as well as the AFI named their top films for the year. I have to say that I'm fairly pleased with what I've seen this year. While I may not necessarily agree with some choices, I don't think that any of the films or actors who have been getting attention are undeserving.

Most of the love seems to going to Phillip Seymour Hoffman in Capote as we'll as Ang Lee's Brokeback Mountain, which leads the Golden Globes with seven nominations. Personally, I'm sad that Jake Gyllenhaal isn't getting more recognition, as the guy has had an absolutely monster year. I find it odd that Walk The Line is listed as a Musical or Comedy, because it's really not either of those things. I guess they realized that it couldn't stand up in the Drama category and decided that, since there's music, they could sneak it into the Musical category. Lame.

Anyway, here is the complete list of nominations. The Awards Show will be Sunday, January 16th on NBC, 8pm EST.
