With Tina Fey and Amy Poehler hosting, this year's Golden Globe awards are sure to be both hilarious and memorable. As The New York Times points out, this year's crop of nominations were announced only four days before Academy Award voting begins, which should help certain nominees pick up Oscar nods.
"Lincoln" leads this year's pack, with nominations for Best Dramatic Motion Picture, Best Director and Best Actor. Ben Affleck earned himself a director's nod with Argo, also up for Best Motion Picture, while "Les Miserables" is up for Best Comedy/Musical.
