Snubbed and Crazy Nominations!

There were some people who were completely robbed of a nomination.

For example Brad Pitt as Lt. Aldo Raine. Normally Im not a Brad Pitt fan however Quentin Tarantino brought out his secret phenomenal acting abilities. The over the top Lt. was paired with the perfect accent and bad ass bravado that should be expected on a top notch Nazi Killer. While serving as the superb comic relief he also served as a character not-to-be-messed-with. Carving nazi swasticas into the foreheads of captured Nazis wall was gritty and empowering. The jewish revenge movie wouldnt have been complete without Aldo Raine so why not nominate him? He completed Inglourious Basterds which was nominated for best picture, screenplay, director and supporting actor (Christopher Waltz) so seriously.

Others who wouldnt have even crossed my radar for a nomination

Best Actor in a Comedy Sherlock Holmes Robert Downey Junior??!
Now dont get me wrong I am completely head over heels taken by this sexy, attitude filled actor. ALSO for Sherlock Holmes I am planning to be first in line for this apparent action flick. Or was I mistaken.....isnt it an action flick? Apparently its a comedy! I figured it might be like Transformers type of action with sprinkled comedy tid-bits splattered to smitherens with the surrounding action. I admit Downey is a polarizing person, which is my best guess for how this nomination happened.

Best Actress in TV-Comedy Courteney Cox Cougartown
Cougartown is a very funny show. The Golden Globe association has just never honored such a show or am I completely wrong? It just sounds unheard of.

I am by no means criticizing these decisions after all does there exist a better way to build up anticipation. By modernizing the most glitzy awards show it is entirely ballsy and could go a lot of different ways...the day after. However it is the show to talk about this year and bravo to the nominations of popular pop culture as well as Indie Dramas! Now not only my grandparents will know whats going on!!!! I think more young people could end up watching too which is awesome.
