Golden Globes Coming Soon!

Tonight i'll be doing a running diary for the Golden Globes. Look for it to go up about an hour or two after the awards are over.
Here are my movie predictions ahead of time with brief rationales. Television picks are coming.
Best Picture Drama: Inglourious Basterds
-The story of Avatar might not resonate with the foreign press, and they're not going to endorse Americans playing Cowboy in Hurt Locker. Precious relies more on a couple really good performances. Comes down to UP in the Air and Basterds, with Basterds winning out through Tarantino appeal.
Best Picture Comedy/Musical: (500) Days of Summer
-I want this one to win.
Best Actor Drama: Colin Firth
-He's British. Jeff Bridges has a chance
Best Actress Drama: Care Mulligan
-Foreign movie
Best Actor Comedy: Michael Stuhlbarg
-He was great in A Serious Man.
Best Actress Comedy: Meryl Streep
-She wins for Julie and Julia
Supporting Actor: Christopher Waltz
Supporting Actress: Vera Farmiga
Best Director: James Cameron
-Too revolutionary not to win
Best Screenplay: District 9
-I'm biased (Basterds probably will win)
