Winner: New Star of the Year in a Motion Picture Award, circa 1982.<\/p><\/div>\n

Nominees for the precursor to the Oscars \u2013 The Golden Globe Awards \u2013 were earlier this week, and while the organization with the murky history and credibility still mushes together Best Performances for actors and actresses from TV and film in singular categories (see end), this high-profile wave of titles will probably help boost the profiles of known, missed, and unknown films for consumers.<\/p>\n

From a studio standpoint, it\u2019s a big marketing bonus that comes with a live TV show, but in terms of credibility, the image of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association<\/a> is still an odd collection of people kind of involved in writing and publicity who managed over several decades to become an influence on the films people should see, as well as what films and talent AMPAS members should consider for Oscar Awards.<\/p>\n

(This isn\u2019t a snotty slam. I\u2019d advise tracking down Vikram Jayanti\u2019s 2003 documentary, The Golden Globes: Hollywood\u2019s Dirty Little Secret<\/a><\/strong>, where the British journalist ran into all manner of unnecessary and bizarre subterfuge in simply trying to find out factual details on members of the HFPA, and why they\u2019ve become so influential after being known for throwing a minor awards ceremony most celebrities during the fifties and sixties took lightly.)<\/p>\n

The plus side is that many of the nominated films below are brand spanking new \u2013 some just hitting cinemas this month \u2013 so the list is a helpful guide for those wanting to spend whatever cash is leftover from the Xmas buying binge on something that\u2019s been branded by a recognized group\/commercial entity as being worth time and money.<\/p>\n

In terms of DVD and Blu-ray sales, the Golden Globes mean far less than the Oscars, since the latter has always been the A-level hit list of titles film fans tend to track down prior to the glitzy awards ceremony.<\/p>\n

In any event, until the Golden Globe Awards \u2013 you know, the group that gave Pia Zadora<\/a> the New Star of the Year in a Motion Picture Award back in 1982 for Butterfly<\/strong> \u2013 is broadcast on NBC, January 17, 2010, below you\u2019ll find the categories, starting with Films<\/a> now available or soon to be released on home video hyperlinked to Amazon.com search entries.<\/p>\n
