The 10 Biggest Snubs, Surprises and Subplots of the 69th Golden Globes Nominations

Still reeling from this week’s installment of Oscar index, Movieline’s Institute for the Advanced Study of Kudos Forensics has had a rare Thursday open for business. Blame the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the shadowy swag goblins behind today’s predictably headscratching slate of snubs, surprises and subplots also known as the 69th Golden Globe nominations. So far the Institute has chosen 10 worth investigating, but feel free to weigh in with your own as well: SUBPLOT: Is The Ides of March for real? George Clooney’s fine political drama bowed strongly but perhaps prematurely in the awards race, eventually ceding its early front-runner terrain to the likes of The Help and Hugo. (I can’t believe I just wrote that sentence.) Its dormancy extended through virtually every awards announcement before today, when it collected four nominations, including Best Picture - Drama, Best Director, Best Actor - Drama (Ryan Gosling), and Best Screenplay. What are we to think, and how much influence do we really want to ascribe to a pliant, star-fucking awards bloc that added an extra nomination in the Drama category just to make sure its bases were covered? I still think it’s toast overall — not enough first-place votes to sneak it into the Academy’s Best Picture consciousness, and it doesn’t stand a chance going up against Fox Searchlight’s Tree of Life campaign. “But,” one may ask, “where’s Tree of Life at the Globes?” Easy: Brad Pitt is at the Moneyball table, and Jessica Chastain is at The Help table. That’s all the HFPA cares about. The Academy has slightly different standards — but only slightly. So we’ll see. SNUB: Melissa McCarthy The Bridesmaids scene-stealer’s omission wouldn’t seem so conspicuous were it not for her surge over the last week and the film itself earning two nominations in Best Picture - Musical/Comedy and Actress - Musical/Comedy. I can’t even legitimately float the thought that NBC — which broadcasts the Globes — pushed for recognition of its SNL star over CBS’s Mike and Molly star; after all, NBC Universal released Bridesmaids. What’s an awards conspiracy theorist to do? Anyway, Academy tastes will settle this in a month, and I for one can totally wait. SUBPLOT: The Weinstein Factor On the one hand, TWC led all individual distributors with 12 nominations; Harvey took full advantage of the split categories in Picture and Actress, moving Michelle Williams in for the Musical/Comedy kill. That’s ridiculous by any standard but the HFPA’s and, well, Harvey’s. But at the end of the day, when Williams wins, it’s only small print on the DVD box. On the other hand… SUBPLOT: The Sony Factor Particularly apropos of Ides, I’m just going to throw this stat out there for your consideration of how Golden Globes sausage is made: Sony subsidiaries — including Columbia Pictures and Sony Classics — combined for 22 out of 71 nominations on the film side. Think about it: Almost every third nominee — 31 percent — is a Sony product, or at least one acquired and branded by Sony. Do what you will with that. SNUB: Uggie What has four legs, 2,000 supporters and apparently can’t be budged — even by Harvey Weinstein? [Insert a long, lusty “BOOOOOO” here.] SURPRISE: Ryan Gosling You know what? I think it’s great that Gosling got in for Crazy Stupid Love. That’s what the Musical/Comedy category is there for (even if technically he’s supporting Steve Carell, but that’s the last objection I’m going to raise to this crop of nominees), and he and Emma Stone arguably account for the entire soul of that movie. Good luck, Gos! That said, why ya gotta go all ninja-like on… SNUB: Gary Oldman Brutal. Absolutely brutal. But despite incredible early critical and commercial interest, the guy can’t buy a break at the Critics Choice Awards, the Globes, or even with his own freaking union. And while I don’t see Gosling carrying his Ides citation over to the Academy, Oldman still has Michael Shannon and Demián Bichir to fight off for the fifth slot. It could happen, but as downswings go, this is pretty bad. I mean, even Woody Harrelson got to plug Rampart this morning during the nominations announcement. SUBPLOT: Extremely Loud & Incredibly Finished Maybe there’s something I’m missing about The Daldry, but to expand the Best Picture - Drama category and not include this seems like a sizable red flag. In any case, it’s a serious statistical disadvantage: The only film to win the Oscar for Best Picture without even being nominated for the Golden Globes’ Best Picture - Drama award was Crash in 2006. (The Sting did it without a Musical/Comedy nod back in 1974.) Simply drawing a Best Picture Oscar nomination under such circumstances is a little easier, but not much: Milk did it in 2009, preceded by Lost in Translation in 2004, and then The Sixth Sense in 2000. Not good. SNUB: Nick Nolte This is probably the Globes snub with the least likelihood of reflecting in the Oscar nominations: Nolte’s SAG recognition should even out Mortensen’s mysterious Sony bump soon enough. No offense to Viggo, either, who’s one of the few bright spots of A Dangerous Method; I just have a feeling that his nomination here will just rally Team Nolte. SURPRISE: Rooney Mara Yay! Someone was listening! Or maybe the HFPA is just fundamentally opposed to nominating an Olsen. It’s not like Mary-Kate or Ashley ever made the cut, right? Coincidence? OK, don’t answer that.

MTV's #8 Movie Of The Season Is '50/50'

I stored fearing "50/50" would have a left turn onto Sappy Boulevard, plod past Preachy Junction and are available to some relaxation inside a town populated by "Dying Youthful," "Fall in NY" and "Sweet November," where everybody discovers pat training and becomes better people (aside from individuals who die individuals unfortunate folks just allow us to learn something about ourselves before they pass in to the Great Cheesy Beyond). "50/50" is really a movie about cancer, in the end, in regards to a youthful guy using the disease. In a certain point star Seth Rogen would need to cease being Seth Rogen, and also the whole film would become some YA version of "Beaches," right? Wrong, wrong, wrong. According to author Will Reiser's own encounters and starring Frederick Gordon-Levitt like a youthful radio producer struggling with an uncommon type of cancer, "50/50" pulls from the miracle trick of remaining consistently funny, sweet, affecting and real and not, ever cheesy. For those these reasons and much more, "50/50" lands at #8 on MTV's Better of 2011 Movie list. As Rogen, who created the film and plays Gordon-Levitt's closest friend (and is actually Reiser's close friend), told us in September, "We'd always discuss what it is not really a creative challenge to consider something depressing making something depressing from it. To us, it had been a lot more interesting to consider something that's naturally depressing and then try to make something really, really funny from it.Inch "50/50" joins "Attack the Block" (#10) and "The Descendants" (#9) on good of 2011 list. All week lengthy, we'll be counting lower our list within the run up to good of 2011 Movies live stream on Friday at 4:30 p.m. ET. Throughout the show, we'll revel the very best five. Don't miss it!

Charlize Theron's First Job: Singing for affordable Jewellery

Charlize Theron: Oscar-winning actress, world-class beauty, potty mouth, 'Star Wars' geek and panhandler? Apparently. Within an interview using the Wall Street Journal, Theron -- who gives among the year's best performances in 'Young Adult' -- says when she would be a child becoming an adult in Nigeria, she'd frequently mind towards the town square to sing for rand. "I'd [...] sing for 50 rand," she stated. "I'd sing and so i may go and purchase cheap jewellery. I did not search for something to complete, I simply went and sang."
