I had no idea if this was going to happen or not, but it did, it will and it is happening as I will be running down the festivities as well as updating the winners live. I will obviously be including winners in the blog and they will be
4:24:29 PM: What is Tiki Barber doing reporting from the Golden Globes?
4:24:50 PM: Gotta admit, it is so nice to actually have an award show to talk about as opposed to last year’s Golden Globe abortion.
4:26:29 PM: Denis Leary’s family, that has to be an interesting household.
4:27:47 PM: I wonder – not Globe related since he’s not nominated – but with the great box-office peformance for Gran Torino this weekend. if Clint gets an acting nom (which I think he will) does he become the front runner?
4:27:51 PM: Wow, based on all the interview questions this is going to be Heath Ledger’s night. All the Dark Knight cast is getting the question…
4:29:13 PM: High School Musical kids… Yeah, they have a lot of interesting things to say.
4:30:22 PM: Drew Barrymore showed up to promote “Grey Gardens” to hell with the show itself. Jessica Lange, however, never ages… that must cost a TON.
4:32:32 PM: Dustin Hoffman, a lot of folks think he is the front runner for Best Actor (Comedy/Musical) according to a few pundits… Last Chance Harvey hasn’t even screened here in Seattle. Really nice work promoting that one.
4:34:26 PM: Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleason are buddied up on the red carpet, it would have been cool to see them present an award as their characters from In Bruges… too tacky for the fancy pants HFPA though.
4:36:36 PM: Coffee break, gotta get everything set up before the actual show starts.
4:39:20 PM: Steven Spielberg, pretty much saying he isn’t sure he is old enough to receive the Cecil b. DeMille award. Gotta say I agree, especially following up War of the Worlds and Indy 4… I mean, Schindler’s List was a long, long time ago.
4:40:53 PM: Ahhh, Winslet looks great… we all know that though.
4:45:31 PM: Tommy Cruise and Robert Downey Jr. – Very nice!
4:46:12 PM: Talking about maybe doing a Les Grossman character feature for the Internet? Hmmmmm
4:47:26 PM: RDJ didn’t seem too interested and said he couldn’t hear… good out move.
4:48:31 PM: Lord, these red carpet interviews are so worthless… “How was it making that movie?” Just once I want someone to say it was terrible.
4:53:05 PM: Brosnan talking about singing in Mamma Mia… Tiki is nice to him…
4:53:47 PM: Salma Hayek… looks… NICE!
4:54:57 PM: Only six minutes to go as the celebs are ushered in at gun point.
4:56:22 PM: Theory: If Slumdog takes the Globe I can’t help but believe Button will take the Oscar…
4:59:46 PM: The show is about to start so I am going to put in a page break so newcomers don’t have to read all the meaningless red carpet chatter.
