Golden Globe Reactions

So I'm a little late with this. I work too much and, well, I'm lazy. Here is what I thought about last Sunday's Golden Globes and how accurate I was in my picks.

Best Picture - Drama

Black Swan
The Fighter
Inception
The King's Speech
The Social Network

My Pick: The Social Network
Winner: The Social Network

I'm happy this won. It deserves it cause the movie is amazing, even if Fincher himself doesn't think so, and I'm glad to see it win. Now that the Oscar nominations are out I'm a little afraid that the King's Speech might take it in this catergory but if they vote right TSN will win.
