Golden Globe Nominees: Best Motion Picture - Comedy/Musical

The nominees:
ACROSS THE UNIVERSE
CHARLIE WILSON'S WAR
HAIRSPRAY
JUNO
SWEENEY TODD

My predictions: 4/5, missing "Across the Universe" for "Once".

Consider me shocked. I really did not expect that the Globes would nominate the poorly put-together "Across the Universe" over "Once", "The Savages", and "Knocked Up". Oh, well. Otherwise, no big surprises here, especially after looking at the rest of the categories. The four other films all got at least one acting nomination (one for "Juno", 2 for "Hairspray" and "Sweeney Todd", and 3 for "Charlie Wilson's War").

Who will win? Good question. Sweeney Todd did fairly well with a Director nomination, but Juno is very popular. I think the love of musicals will help Sweeney Todd to the win.
