Golden Globe Winners and Recap

It was an interesting night watching the 2010 Golden Globe Awards.  The awards were pretty well spread out with few films winning multiple awards.  Avatar took home some awards including the Best Motion Picture Drama.  Dexter’s Michael C. Hall, who has cancer, won for best actor in a drama TV series.  John Lithgow won for Best Supporting Actor in a Drama.

Ricky Gervais was a great host for the 2010 Golden Globes.  He is very funny and among the top award show hosts of all time.  He offered a great intro monologue and some witty humor throughout.

The biggest surprise of the night was likely the Robert Downey Jr. victory in the Best Motion Picture Comedy or Musical award for actor.  Daniel Day-Lewis was widely expected to win.

Up was recognized as the best feature film animation, and also won for Best Score.  Both were well-deserved as this was among the best family movies since WALL-E.

Meryl Streep beat herself, among others, to win the Best Actress in a Comedy or Musical Motion Picture award.  Streep won for Julie & Julia, and was also nominated for her role in It’s Complicated.

The first year hit TV show Mad Men won.  It was disappointing not to see Dexter win for Best TV Drama after a very exciting fourth season with a shocking ending.

To learn more about the 2010 Golden Globe Awards you can read the complete Golden Globe Winners List and Golden Globe recap from Neil at Movie Room Reviews.  He was 15 of 25 on his Golden Globe predictions.

Taylor Lautner SNL Twilight (video)

Taylor Lautner appeared on SNL last night and the best skit is the Team Jacob one I have posted below.   In his monologue, which focused mainly on his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, and her experiences with Kanye West at the MTV VMAs was a bit stale and played out at this point, I’ll say this about Lautner: he really committed 100% to whatever they asked him to do. He was enthusiastic and willing to look silly, and though he could have just sat there and clipped his toenails and 50% of the viewing audience would have squealed happily, he was willing to mock his own shirtless werewolf image and make people laugh:

Taylor Swift SNL Firelight Spoof

Taylor Swift and SNL spoofed Twilight last night and it was hilarious!  Her impersonation of Kristen Stewart was perfect.  What did you think?  Funny or Not?  Are you looking forward to New Moon on November 20th?  You can watch the video below.

The Inspiration Story of Connie Culp

Thank you Connie for sharing your story and your amazing spirit. Connie is the first person in the world to receive a face transplant and gave a press conference today. Her story in the video above will inspire you.  You can also read about it here.

Nadya Suleman: Octuplets Mom Speaks on “Today” (Video)

In the first interview with Nadya Suleman, the mother of the octuplets explains why she thinks having 14 children was a responsible choice and why she’s being unfairly attacked because she’s a single mom.

Below is the video of her interview from this morning.   I am also linking to a teriffic article from The Toronto Star that goes against the onslaught of media news and comments saying we should basically banish her and her children, that I hope you will read. It is not a popular opinion, but a compassionate one.  I think it is one that we should all  have towards any other human beings and I know there are more people out there that do.  Next week The Today Show will have video of her babies and I think and hope their faces will encourage that compassion.
