Golden Globes 2016: Nominee Predictions

The Golden Globe nominations will be revealed on Thursday morning. The Globes are a little more predictable than the SAGs because they love star power more than anything else. Every once in a while they throw a curveball and nominate someone completely unexpected. That could happen this year, but I don’t know who it could possibly be. The television is a little more unpredictable. They love first season shows, but they also seem a little averse to the streaming networks (Amazon, Hulu, Netflix). Those three have a lot of new shows for them to consider, but they have a hill to climb.

SAG Awards 2016: Nominee Predictions

The nominations for the Screen Actors Guild Awards will be announced on Wednesday morning. This year is pretty tough to predict on the film side. Most of the main contenders barely made screenings available for some films (Joy, The Hateful Eight, The Revenant) before the ballots were due. That could work for or against them. The films will be recent in voters minds, but will enough of them have seen the films and will they be able to topple films that have been out longer and made a lasting impressions? It seems like it could go either way.

58th Annual Grammy Awards: Complete Nomination Predictions

It’s less than a month til the Grammy nominations are announced. This year seems much more crowded than usual. I think Kendrick Lamar and The Weeknd are going to be the performers with the most nominations this year. Lamar was prolific throughout the year and has a lot of different projects that he could that could get him nominations. The Weeknd is helped by the fact that he has a couple songs in different genres. “Can’t Feel My Face” & “Earned It” will both do well in the Pop and R&B categories, which will give him a higher nomination total.

Otherwise, here are my complete predictions for the 58th Annual Grammy Awards…
