The 2018 Golden Globes nominations have been announced, and while there are a few surprises, there are more snubs than anything. Get Out was nominated in the ‘Musical or Comedy’ category, something writer/director Jordan Peele already responded to, but that didn’t stop the committee from giving it the nomination.
Christopher Plummer was impressively nominated for All The Money In The World, after replacing Kevin Spacey on very short notice, after Spacey’s disturbing allegations of sexual misconduct came forward.

So there you have it. Most of the nominations were fairly predictable, while a few notable films were left off of the list. While Logan deserved some love from the Globes, superhero related films just don’t really get nominated all that much. It’ll be interesting to see if the Oscars do something different, but if history is any indication, they most likely won’t.
