Compared with ordinary movie fans, the media is more eager for the list of nominees to be announced for the Golden Globe Awards, but what the media is eager for is not the pure Golden Globe Awards themselves, but also the extraordinary significance behind the Golden Globe Award nomination list.

Since the start of the awards season, the National Board of Review has honored "Slums & Millionaires" and David Brown. Fincher presented Best Picture and Best Director to the throne, and the list of nominees for the American Broadcast Film Critics Association Awards was Leonardo Brown. DiCaprio and Kate. Winslet relentlessly kicked out the lineup for Best Actor, and then yesterday, the Los Angeles Film Critics Association awarded Best Picture and Best Director to "Wall-E" and Lin Yuquan, and today, the New York Film Critics Association made "Milk" the biggest winner and awarded Best Director to "Carefree" director Mike Brown. Li, this kind of awards season situation, compared with last year's "Scarlet Black Gold", is undoubtedly dazzling.

Therefore, in the media's Oscar predictions, the situation is confusing, with many popular candidates and movies, Lin Yuquan and "Wild Story: The Rise of the Ape Race", David. Fincher and Benjamin. The Curious Case of Barton, Danny. Bauer and "Slumdog Millionaire" are both big hits.

It is obvious that at such a moment, as the third largest film and television award in the United States, an important weather vane of the Oscars, where the Oscars will blow, the list of nominees to be announced by the Golden Globes will have an important reference value for prediction.

Time passed quickly, and in the midst of all the attention, finally, at 5 a.m. local time in Los Angeles on December 11 and 9 p.m. Kyoto time on the same day, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association officially held the 66th American Film and Television Golden Globe Awards nomination announcement ceremony at the Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills.

Lin Yuquan was in the living room of the most luxurious suite of the Dawn House. The main creators of "Immediate Rescue" gathered together to listen to the Golden Globe Award nominations for the first time through a conference call.

"Let's reveal this year's nominees!" The phone rang clearly and the famous movie star Brooke who was the guest of honor for the reading. Xiaosi's voice: "The first announcement is the film awards, and the candidates for best film song are "DowntoEarth", "Wall-E the Robot", composer Peter. Gabuel, Thomas. Newman"

The list of nominees for the Golden Globe Awards was announced one by one according to the drama category and comedy music category of film and television, among which the best film song has always been the first to be announced, "Robot Wall-E", "Wrestler", "Classic Car", "Blues Legend", "Star Dog" have been selected from Brooke. Xiao Si read it out of her mouth. After that, without any delay, the best original soundtrack was revealed: "Raman, Slumdog Millionaire, Alexander. Despra Benjamin. The Curious Case of Barton, Clint. Eastwood's "Changeling", Hans. Zimmer, "Conversations with Nixon", Howard. Shaw's "Wild Story: The Rise of the Ape Race". ”

"Oh, that's great." The living room was suddenly jubilant, everyone had smiles on their faces, and Liu Yifei's good-looking eyes were as cute as crescent moons: "Hehe, we have a nomination." "It's like being nominated.

"Yes, there is a nomination, I just hope it is not the only one." Lin Yuquan smiled slightly, and at the same time in his heart for Howard. Shaw was happy that it was Howard. Shaw is nominated for the fourth time. Prior to that, he had won two awards for his extraordinary soundtracks from The Lord of the Rings III: Return of the King and The Aviator, and in Wild Ages: Rise of the Apes, Howard Murphy. Xiao did not stand still and did not seek to improve, but on the basis of "The Lord of the Rings", with tireless efforts, he finally presented a more magnificent and magnificent movie music, which almost perfectly set off the atmosphere of the ancient wild continent. The nomination for the current Golden Globe Award is absolutely deserved, and it is enough to be nominated for an Oscar.

"How could it be. There will be many, many nominations. Liu Yifei said with a serious face.

Lin Yuquan smiled, a lot, a lot, my God, there are not a few nominations for the Golden Globe Awards in terms of films, and there are also six nominations for actor performances, although he also hopes that Andy. Serkis. Hope Kristen. Stewart, Hope Abigier. Brycelyn, Hope Sandra. Bullock and others were nominated or even won at the Golden Globes, and in his own judgment, the likelihood of that was really not high.

It's different from the awards ceremony. Since the announcement of the nominations did not involve gags and show time, but was continuous, the crowd did not have time to celebrate the nomination for the best original film score, and immediately focused on the announcement of the nominations for the best foreign language film that followed.

There is no "Painted Wall", and there is not a single Chinese-language film, and five films from five countries: Israel, Italy, Germany, France, and Sweden were shortlisted for this nomination.

"The candidates for Best Screenplay are." As soon as he heard the words "Best Screenplay", Lin Yuquan's expression suddenly froze, and he had expectations for "Wild Story: The Rise of the Ape Race" and "Heartbeat" in this award, and in the predictive comments of film critics, it was generally believed that the scripts of the two were both moving, interesting, and excellent, and had a great possibility of being shortlisted.

"Simon. Bilfoy, "The Rich and the Poor", David. Haier's "Life and Death Reading", Peter. Morgan, Frost and Nixon, Rain Fountains. Lin, Alex. Kuzman, "Savage: The Rise of the Apes". ”

Almost in the "rain spring. The moment Lin rang, the living room was jubilant again, but unfortunately the last nomination was not won by "Heartbeat", but by "Benjamin. The Curious Affair of Barton" won.

"Wow, that's great, it's already two nominations." After hearing that the best animation was read out, Liu Yifei immediately couldn't suppress his excitement and cheered.

"Yes, it's not easy to get two nominations at the Golden Globes." Huang Bo whistled with a smile on his face.

"What, it's only two nominations, so you have to get a few more." Wang Luodan said with a grin.

"What do you think, you are a Chinese cabbage when you are nominated for the Golden Globes!" Lin Yuquan said with a smile and a smile, unlike the Oscars and Emmy Awards, the Golden Globe Awards do not award technical awards because there is no professional voting team, and among the film awards that have not been awarded, except for six acting awards. There are only three awards left: Best Director, Best Musical Comedy Film, and Best Drama Film.

Sure enough, as he expected, in the four awards for Best Supporting Actor and Actress and Best Musical Comedy Actor and Actress announced in a row, his films and films produced by Summit Entertainment were not shortlisted.

The next thing to be announced is the best musical comedy film, which focuses on connotation and ideology compared to the best drama film. This award is clearly more entertaining.

"Heartbeat", which has already grossed more than $700 million worldwide, undoubtedly has outstanding entertainment, so can it be shortlisted? In the media predictions, "Heartbeat" has become a favorite film of the award without any surprise, almost unanimously considering it 100% shortlisted, and "Mamma Mia" is also enjoying the same treatment, as a representative of this year's musical film, it is considered to have no reason to lose the award after the global box office exceeded 500 million US dollars.

A feeling of nervousness and anticipation instantly enveloped the entire living room, and everyone couldn't help but sit up straight and clench their fists. Attention is highly concentrated, although for today's "Heartbeat", the nomination and even the award of the Golden Globe Award will not have much impact on the box office, but in addition to this is an honor, a kind of affirmation, for those who care about the influence of the award, a Golden Globe Award for Best Musical Comedy Film Winning and nominating will establish the classic status of "Heartbeat" in their hearts.

"No Vacation for Killers," "Carefree," "Mamma Mia."

With the three nominations that were read out in a row and none of the nominations for "Heartbeat", the atmosphere in the living room suddenly became more tense. Liu Yifei's delicate little face was wrinkled, and Wang Luodan's expression was full of anxiety and worry. Lin Yuquan's heart sank slightly

"Midnight in Barcelona", "Heartbeat".

"Oh, oh, oh." The living room immediately turned into a sea of jubilation, Liu Yifei's wrinkled little face was instantly replaced by a happy smile, Wang Luodan waved his arms excitedly, and Lin Yuquan laughed. Naturally, I am extremely satisfied with this result, with three nominations in hand, even if I don't get a single nomination for the next award, this Golden Globe Award is not a failure.

After the Best Musical Comedy Film, the nomination announcement continued. The next ones were read out one after another: Best Drama Actress, Best Drama Actor, Best Drama Actress Not to Mention, Best Drama Actor, Andy Who, as a performance capture leader. Serkis was not well received and was not nominated for the nomination.

Although she had expected it, when she really waited for the result, Liu Yifei puffed out her face angrily, obviously a little unhappy, but her attention quickly focused again, because the last two award nominations were about to be announced.

The first to be revealed was the best drama film, and there is no doubt that "Wild Wild: Rise of the Apes" is certainly the favorite for this award, and media critics believe that they can't think of a reason not to be shortlisted.

"Shortlisted for the 66th Golden Globe Awards for Best Drama Film" At this moment, even Lin Yuquan felt a little nervous in his heart, in his mind, for his own works, self-affirmation and satisfaction are undoubtedly the most important, followed by the audience's feelings and evaluations, followed by the box office of the film, and then various film honors, the Golden Globe Awards are heavyweight awards worldwide, and the nomination for the best film has not been received by him in the past, of course he hopes to receive such an honor, and Brooke came on the phone. Silk's voice: "Benjamin. The Curious Case of Barton", "Frost in Conversation with Nixon", "Life and Death Reading", "The Wild Story: The Rise of the Ape Race", "Slumdog Millionaire". ”

"Fantastic, already four nominations." Wang Luodan shouted excitedly.

"Yes, it's just the best director, it's definitely no problem." Liu Yifei's breathing became very short, and she cheered herself up, as if she was competing for the director.

Yes, only the best director is missing, Lin Yuquan smiled, as a director, if you ask him what film award he hopes to get the most, then it must be the best director, this is the best affirmation of himself, can he be nominated? Yes, definitely can, he said to himself in his heart, after being nominated for the best drama film, in the face of this last award, he was no longer nervous, but instead had a strong self-confidence, although the nominations for best director and best drama film did not necessarily coincide completely, but they generally coincided, and even the media critics were unanimously confident in him, thinking that he would definitely be shortlisted for best director, how could he not have confidence in himself.

"Now it's the last film nomination, the nomination for Best Director, and every year this award gets a lot of attention. Which directors will be shortlisted this year? Kung Fu Lin, David Fincher, Danny. Ball, or someone else, now let's take a look at the nominees for Best Director at the 66th Golden Globe Awards. Bauer, "The Rich and the Poor"; Steven. Moral Benefit, "Life and Death Reading"; David. Finch, Benjamin. The Curious Case of Barton, Rain Fountains. Forest. "Savage: The Rise of the Ape Race"; Bright. Howard, "Frost Conversations with Nixon". ”

"Oh, Brother Yuquan, Best Director, you did it, Golden Globe Award for Best Director." The moment he heard the name "Yuquan, Lin", Liu Yifei suddenly exclaimed, jumped up from the sofa excitedly, and shouted with a bright smile on his face.

"Yes, I did." Lin Yuquan exhaled. Laughing and getting up from the sofa, if there were no outsiders now, he would definitely take her into his arms as soon as possible.

"Wow, that's amazing, nominated for Best Director at the Golden Globe Awards, so far, no other Chinese director has won this honor except Li Yu." Xu Zhengdao.

"Haha. Awesome, five nominations in total. Oh, by the way, Yuquan is only 25 years old this year, do you think this will be the youngest Golden Globe Award for Best Director nomination? Wang Luodan said suddenly after cheering with emotion.

"Yes, it's very likely." Liu Yifei's eyes lit up immediately, and his inquiring eyes looked at Lin Yuquan.

The same goes for others.

"Don't look at me. I don't know, okay, don't worry about that, it's a happy time, we should celebrate. Lin Yuquan shook his head. Pick up the champagne that had been prepared on the table, shake it, and open it.

"Boom." The strong air pressure caused champagne to gush out, and the living room was filled with laughter.

After a brief celebration, Lin Yuquan immediately gave Howard. Shaw and Alex. Kuzman called to congratulate him, and at the same time, with the announcement of the list of nominees for the 66th American Film and Television Golden Globe Awards, it naturally sparked heated discussions in the media and the public.

Originally, media critics hoped to better predict the Oscar nominations through the Golden Globe nomination list, but after the list was released, the situation of the awards season became more and more dazzling.
