Golden Globe Nominations Announced!

This is gearing up to be a bizarre awards season as far as film goes. The Golden Globe nominations were announced yesterday and I was surprised to by a few things, like the dismal movies that are represented in the best song category but nothing has people talking for than the fact that ‘Mad Max: Fury Road’ was nominated for best picture (drama). The film was the best reviewed of the year and I for one loved it, but I wouldn’t necessarily put it in Oscar contention. Anyway here are the most important nominations:
