2012 Golden Globe Nominees

The nominees for the 2012 Golden Globe nominees were announced this morning and I have found myself in the same situation once again of having not seen any of the films nominated for Best Picture. Not even The Help! The only one that I have seen, is Best Picture for a Comedy or Musical nominee 50/50. So…I hope that one wins.

Other reactions:

  • New Girl for Best Comedy Series? Really?
  • I would love for Ryan Gosling to win a Golden Globe this year.
  • No Elizabeth Olsen for Martha Marcy May Marlene?!

50/50

While there are a few films I am excited to see this summer (the last Harry Potter, the Art of Getting By, Bad Teacher, Friends With Benefits, and Crazy Stupid Love.) I think that I am most excited for 50/50. Technically the movie comes out September 30th, which is late summer, but still sure to be a hit at the box office.

Directed by Jonathan Levine, the story centers on Adam (Gordon-Levitt), a young man living a great life. He has a job that he’s passionate about, works with his best friend (Rogen) and has a stunningly beautiful girlfriend (Howard). Then he goes to the doctor and finds out that he has a rare for of spinal cancer that has left him with a 50% chance of survival. This world totally rocked by the news, not only does he have to deal with the effects of his disease, but also how it affects everyone in his life.
