The 2018 Golden Globes Movie Nominees Will Make You Grab Your Popcorn
Awards season is officially in full swing and now the 2018 Golden Globe nominations have finally arrived. The nods were announced courtesy of Kristen Bell, Sharon Stone, and company on Monday, Dec. 11, recognizing both TV and film achievements of last year, and the winners will be decided by members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. What were the 2018 Golden Globes movie nominees? Let's just say Shape of Water is leading the pack.
The Globes aren't always the absolute best indicator of what's to come Oscar-wise (um, remember that time they nominated The Tourist?), but we wouldn't be surprised if the Academy Awards recognized a similar group in the film department this year. Call Me By Your Name, Dunkirk, Ladybird, Get Out, andThe Post all pretty much shoo-ins for multiple nods across the board throughout the season.
The Golden Globes' addition of definitive musical and comedy categories widens the possibilities of who and what has the potential to be nominated. We might not see Ansel Elgort at the Oscars for his standout work in the fun crime romp Baby Driver, but we'll get to see him get dancing right to the Golden Globes. Hopefully movies like The Disaster Artist and I, Tonya will get the same kind of love throughout the season alongside the dramatic heavy-hitters.
