The 2014 Golden Globe Awards
Another Golden Globes come and gone, another party very much had, another bunch of celebrities given the honor of a drunken pat on the back by whoever makes up the Hollywood Foreign Press Association after stumbling their way through an overcrowded hotel ballroom. Truly, it is an #honor just to be stumbled over. For a meaningless award ceremony honoring a bunch of highly-paid pretenders and child molesters that is twice as long as it should be, though, it wasn’t the worst! Tiny and Amy did not disappoint! The pair’s opening monologue, which you can watch after the jump, if you’d like to, was funny and biting without the feeling like it was grasping for edginess, no duh. They are the best! Tiny Fey referenced Taylor Swift’s quote about there being a special place in hell for women who don’t help other women, which was perfect. Amy Poheler as Tina Fey’s son was very enjoyable. George Clooney joke. Leonardo DiCaprio joke. A+. There were some award surprises (even for those of us who feel like we know the HFPA very well jk) — 12 Years a Slave took home the award for best drama, but didn’t win anything else all night. American Hustle won three awards, even though that movie is not great. Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Andy Samberg won for best comedic series and best actor in a comedic series! Which should, at least, ensure us another season of the wonderful Brooklyn Nine-Nine! Aaron Paul did not win his category, and for whatever reason Jon Voight did not shout “YEAH, BITCH” when he won. Jacqueline Bisset should have stayed up there all night, as far as I’m concerned. Leonardo DiCaprio said “Philomania.” Diane Keaton sang a song. Literally no one in Hollywood can either operate a teleprompter or read from one. Blah, blah, blah. We get it. Want to get more of it? Like I said, Tiny and Amy’s opening monologue is after the jump, plus there are a few award winner speeches, plus a list of winners. Also there’s the photo gallery. Okay? ENJOY THEM, IF YOU’D LIKE TO!
