These nominations are a good sign for the movies prospects at the Oscars.

It shows that awards voters are taking it seriously in all the big categories.

Maclin gives a uniquely honest and personal performance inSing Sing.

Matt Damon in The Odyssey and Ralph Fiennes in The Return (2024)

Reed in the psychological thrillerHeretic.

But the most surprising thing is the category.

Grant was nominated for Best Actor in a Motion Picture Musical or Comedy.

Both movies were the subject of a big awards push, and they both received positive reviews from critics.

But now, the nominations have come in and Ronan doesnt even have one.

Ronan is usually a favorite among awards voters.

Apparently, the Golden Globes dont share that annoying rule and Zimmer has gotten the nomination he deserves.

But since it was actually released and people got to see it, its received nothing but praise.

But its nominations dont include Best Director, and thats one that it absolutely deserved.

The Golden Globes is an awards show acknowledging the best of American and international film and television. In 2024, the event was held in Beverly Hills, CA, on January 7, 2024, and aired on CBS. The 2024 Golden Globes was hosted by stand-up comedian Jo Koy.

This is surprising, because Anderson has never received awards recognition before.

She typically makes lowbrow films likeBarb WireandScary Movie 3, which awards voters wouldnt take a second look at.

But Andersons Golden Globe nomination is still a surprise.

This year, Andersons comeback inThe Last Showgirlhas been overshadowed by Demi Moores similar comeback inThe Substance.

But one of the finest performances of 2024 has been snubbed.

Deadwyler seemed to be a shoo-in for this category.

She even won the Boston Society of Film Critics Award for Best Supporting Actress.

It seemed like a no-brainer that Deadwyler would be nominated at the Globes, but she got snubbed.

Stan couldve comfortably expected one nomination at theGolden Globesthis year.
