2014 Golden Globes Film Picks

It's that time of year again, AWARDS SEASON is upon us, and I am as excited as ever! This year however is going to be different, a great deal of the nominated films I have not seen. So that alone makes my selections all the more challenging, so this year I will do things a bit different than I did last, I will only pick who I want to see win. This means some of these selections will be based on me simply being a fan of the nominee in question, or the nominated film being one I am eagerly wanting to see. The 2014 Golden Globe ceremony airs on January 12, just over a week from when this is being written. So if I do happen to watch some of these unseen nominated films, I will edit my selections leading up to the awards show airing, otherwise here you have it, my 2014 Golden Globes picks that I WANT to win(highlighted in Red) , not necessarily who I THINK will win...
