Golden Globe Nominations Revealed.

Ohhhh how I loveeeee, loveee, loveeee, receiving information about the upcoming 2012 Golden Globes. Every year I always anticipate to watch the biggest and most important award show on Television. This year is no different. I've already watched a few movies that are mentioned below but still need a lot more... which I don't mind watching. FYI, The 69th annual event will take place on Sunday, January 15 on NBC. This morning, the nominees were announced by Gerard Butler, Woody Harrelson, Rashida Jones, and Sofia Vergara. Who were also joined by HFPA President DR. Aida Takla-O'Reilly to make the announcements. This morning I had the information sent to me (Oh how I love the life of a blogger!) and now I wanted to show you guys as well.

Which movies, actors, actresses, or TV shows are you guys mostly looking forward too?
