A bunch of movies I won’t see and TV shows I don’t watch were nominated for Golden Globes today, so I know what I will be doing on January 11th…not watching the Golden Globes. Ever since the Globes moved to an earlier date their relevance to the Oscars have diminished, hopefully that trend will continue. Because with those choices it would once again be a boring, low-watched Oscars…SAG strike or not.
