I would bet against this category being shunned this year though as it seems unlikely they will want to pass up the chance to nominate Randy Newman for the billionth time as he has a few eligable songs from The Princess And The Frog. |

As much as I love Michael Emerson, it would be a shame if Michael C. Hall doesn't win for Dexter. And John Lithgow deserves to win too.

Watched 2 films today - "A Single Man" and "Princess and the Frog".
"Princess and the Frog" is very classic Disney with dreams and making wishes and true love, all that shit that they feed into your brains when you're a kid so you get disappointed when you grow up. It's cute, and you know Disney's trying to up the ante with some heavy drama in parts, but it is no way beating "Fox" or "Up" for Best Animated Feature. "A Single Man" is okay. I feel like Ford went way too overboard with the colors and the lack of colors (you'll understand what I'm saying if you watch the film). It just seemed like since it's his first time directing, he was trying too hard to be artsy, but the story and the tension was brilliantly done. Plus Colin Firth was really good. Julianne Moore was okay and I can see why the Globes would take notice but I wouldn't have nominated her - part is tiny and not acting not even that grand to begin with, anyone could have done it, really. Nicholas Hoult ("About a Boy", "Skins") was good too. |

I mean, if you look at the content Cranston (for example) has to submit, and the stuff Fox has, it's not at all surprising. Plus, as has been said, Lost is more of an ensemble cast, which I think always makes it harder for someone to get a lead acting nom. |

I doubt any of the "Princess and the Frog" songs will get nom'd for Oscars, none of them are memorable at all and they all sound the same.
Nowhere near the epicness of the Menken/Ashman or even the Menken/Schwartz songs from the 90's even their half assed efforts (Enchanted) got 3 fucking
nominations a couple of years back.

I never said they should be nominated every single year. I was pointing out that it's not hard to believe they can win an Emmy or a Golden Globe. The possibility is already there having been nominated once before. |

Well the difference is I believe Fox was only nominated for the pilot season (only the first 13 episodes) as well as Wentworth Miller, Patrick Dempsey, and
Hugh Laurie. While Lily was nominated for an exceptional episode (what kate did) neither actor has proven to me to be worthy of return nominations. I
don't think either actor or actress has earner their spots not with shows with much better leads in shows like Big Love, Brotherhood, Dexter, Damages,
Friday Night Lights, Mad Men, Reascue Me, Shield, Supernatural, Tudors, True Blood.

Like I said before why should fox be nominated when he isnt even the best leading actor on that show much less on tv.

I'd give Ken Leung an Emmy over Matthew Fox.

As much as I love Foxy I'd have to agree with you SI. His acting just doesn't grab me 100%. But Ken Leung is fantastic. I saw an episode of the
Sopranos the other day with him in it & was blown away. He's really good & not just as Miles.

Courteney Cox had this to say:
She added to Entertainment Tonight: "I'm so excited, it's such a great day - it feels great. This is what those other people have been feeling all those other times, I can't imagine - loving it!" Lol. That leaves David Schwimmer as the only "Friend" to not grab a Golden Globe nomination, but Courteney is still the only Friend to not have an Emmy nomination. |
