Oh, those wacky folks at the Hollywood Foreign Press Association sure proved their populist nature with tonight's
Golden Globe Awards. Winners included such box office hits as
Avatar,
The Blind Side,
Sherlock Holmes and, most surprising of all,
The Hangover. Meanwhile, such critical darlings as
The Hurt Locker and
Up in the Air were left with little to no recoginition, a fact that will surely cloud Oscar predictions for the rest of the season.
See the comments section below for a quick look at all the winners.
