Members BetterForgotten Posted January 7, 2019 Members Share Posted January 7, 2019 Glad a real actress like Glenn Close won the Golden Globe. I hope this is the year Queen Glenn finally wins that elusive Oscar. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 7, 2019 Members Share Posted January 7, 2019 I'm thrilled to hear Glenn Close won - it sometimes feels like she's been forgotten in recent years. I don't mind Gaga, but I hope her fans won't attack Glenn Close (then again they weren't in the same category were they?? Or were they? I haven't watched yet). I'm glad to hear Richard Madden won too. I just loved him on Game of Thrones, even if he hasn't ever known what to do with his hair since then. I'm also glad to hear Rami Malek did NOT mention Singer when he won. Malek is so endearing in such an odd way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted January 7, 2019 Members Share Posted January 7, 2019 Close and Gaga were both in Actress - Drama, even though A Star is Born could have conceivably campaigned in the Comedy/Musical categories. Close gave a great speech and got a passionate reaction, plus the “due” factor, so it’s hard to not see her as the favorite. Ironically, Olivia Colman (for “The Favourite”) is the second favorite, but she competed in the comedy categories at the Globes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BetterForgotten Posted January 7, 2019 Members Share Posted January 7, 2019 Gaga’s delusional fans have been attacking Glenn Close left and right on Twitter with some of the most absurd ageist trash. I really detest that segment of her fanbase. She subtly has encouraged a lot of that crap from her fans as well. I know it did well at the box office, but everything this award season screams payola from Gaga and Bradley Cooper’s respective camps for ASIB. Luckily it doesn’t appear to be working outside of the expected music categories... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 7, 2019 Members Share Posted January 7, 2019 I saw some of them insisting she had faked her reaction to winning. I don't think most of them even know who she is...sad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members StepBack Posted January 8, 2019 Members Share Posted January 8, 2019 I'm not generally a Gaga fan, but come on Jennifer Hudson won the Golden Globe, and then on to the Oscar for Dream Girls. Both performances were nothing amazing, outside of the great musical performances. Cate Blanchett also killed it that year too. Thankfully, she was awarded for Blue Jasmine. I'm happy for Glenn, but her movie was a snore unfortunately. She did turn in a fine performance, despite a really weak script. I wouldn't have awarded her for her work in "The Wife," and if she's up against Olivia Coleman this year, then Coleman should easily win. However, I can see Glenn winning on "due" factor, like Julianne Moore and that boring performance in "Still Alice." It would be nice to see actors of colour, being "due" as well. But, I digress. People will always find a way to say no. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members StepBack Posted January 8, 2019 Members Share Posted January 8, 2019 To be honest, I wasn’t around then so I’m not sure. But Whoopi’s performance in Ghost was awesome. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Faulkner Posted January 9, 2019 Members Share Posted January 9, 2019 Update: with Kevin Hart putting the idea of resuming host duties to bed, the Academy is planning to go hostless, using an array of A-list stars to introduce segments and perform skits. Some execs are calling it “a potentially fatal prospect.” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
