Golden Globe Predictions

Tried to throw some no guts no glory predictions in there (Anna Faris, Michelle Williams, Australia, 'WALL-E' for comedy) They could happen, they could not.

I also have 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button' (typing that out is getting old quickly), and 'Milk' tied with 5 nominations a piece, but hey, I am hopeful.
I had 'WALL-E' in the Comedy Picture mix, but have now removed it as it seems it is not eligible - Replaced it with 'Mamma Mia' - The HFPA loves a musical.

We will find out a week from now!
