18 Jan Penultimate Golden Globes Nominations Predictions
I’m only going to be showing my predictions for the film section of the Golden Globes but once I give you my final Golden Globe nominations predictions in a week or two, television will be there as well.
The thing to remember about the Golden Globes is that they like to award big celebrities and young up-and-comers. So a lot of veteran character actors who delivered great performances this year will likely get ignored by them.
