I’m a little late getting this one out (meant to have this posted yesterday), but here is the list of the  Golden Globe nominees with the  winning recipients in blue. A lot of folks look at these awards as a sign of things to come when the Oscars roll around with the Foreign Press making their picks of the year. I don’t know if it is just my own terrible cynicism but I hold very little value in the Golden Globes or the Oscars. I tend to replace “Best” with “Most Popular”. So what do you ladies and gents think?

List is available after the jump.
