Black Swan
The Fighter
Inception
The King's Speech
The Social Network- WILL/SHOULD WIN
Yes, "The King's Speech" has the most nominations, and is probably a sure bet to win because this is an awards show run by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, a group of foreign journalists. However, "The Social Network" is too hard to be ignored. This movie has dominated critics' lists all across the country as one of the ten best films of 2010, and with a Globe win, will sit comfortably in the driver's seat on Oscar Sunday.

Motion Picture- Comedy or Musical:
Alice in Wonderland- WILL/SHOULD WIN
Burlesque
The Kids Are All Right
Red
The Tourist
It is no secret that Globe voters are smitten with Johnny Depp films, especially in recent history. This is a no-brainer as the latest Depp collaboration with Tim Burton will win this category. On a side note, "Burlesque" will still be in the running for another award, the Golden Raspberry.

Emma Stone (Easy A)- SHOULD WIN
Annette Bening (The Kids Are All Right)
Julianne Moore (The Kids Are All Right)

Michael Douglas has been through a lot personally in the past several months, fighting throat cancer and getting accolades for reprising his Oscar-winning role as Gordon Gecko in the sequel to the 1987 film "Wall Street". Douglas is a cinch to win this category.
Best Animated Feature:
Despicable Me
How To Train Your Dragon
The Illusionist
Tangled
Toy Story 3- WILL/SHOULD WIN

David Seidler (The King's Speech)
Aaron Sorkin (The Social Network)- WILL WIN
Sorkin has been a Globe nominee before, but as Executive Producer of his hit TV drama "The West Wing" and short-lived dramedy "Sport Night". This is a tough race to handicap, as all of the five screenplays seem scrumptious to the writer's palate.
TELEVISION:
Best Television Series- Drama:
Boardwalk Empire (HBO)- WILL WIN
Dexter (Showtime)
The Good Wife (CBS)
Mad Men (AMC)
The Walking Dead (AMC)- SHOULD WIN
Globe voters are in love with the "IT" factor when it comes to the small screen. While "Mad Men" has won the last three years, it is time for Globe voters to step further back in time, from the 1960s to 1920 Atlantic City. A possible spoiler is AMC's "The Walking Dead".
