Can't see Don Cheadle getting nommed for Crash, especially ahead of Matt Dillon (not Dylan), who had the far meatier role.

You don't think that Pierce Brosnan might get a nod for The Matador? Definite Comedy Golden Globe, but to me, it's the Gene Hackman, Jack Nicholson/About Schmidt comedy nomination that doesn't seem to be elsewhere.

I also think David Straitharn is a shoe-in for a nod for Good Night, Good Luck...not sure why he wouldn't get one except for the Best Actor category being ridiculously crowded for a second year in a row.

If anything it's the Kevin Costner Upside of Anger role for that but it came out too early..

AH, didn't Jim Carey just give a career performance last year in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind? A little harsh on the guy for doing an wasy comedy.

I thought William Hurt is excellent in History of Violence. His eyes were captivating looking at him. I mean, i know full well when the scene began what he was going to do (don't want to spoil).

But he won't get nominated. Why? Because he's in the movie for how many minutes. five? four? Just one long scene. I don't think that's going to happen. Ditto with Harris who is equally gleeful to watch. He's in the movie for only a few minutes.

The Hunt screen time issue is going to be interesting to watch since he will try to be getting in a year where so many actings are going to try to go supporting in lead roles. If they is a backlash with some voters I can see him becoming a protest vote, or perhaps votes will feel the need to put him on the ballot to equal out a Jude or Jake they might put on their's too.

All the King's Men will sweep the acting categories? It most likely won't even have nominees in every category.
