I love that Before Midnight is in the Comedy/Musical category.

Why are those two lumped together? I never understood it. These awards are usually a joke anyway, Hollywood Foreign Press and all that (that Madonna movie, that Johnny Depp movie), but I'm interested in how they work. Do you have to be a member to vote? On wiki, in order to be a member you have to live in Southern California.

Do you pay your way for a nomination like big studios lobbying their films e.g. Weinstein? Is that how the Oscars work?

I still feel like it will get overlooked simply because most of the people making the votes watching it as a DVD screener.

It is a different experience when watched in a theater.

I don't know, of the awards movies Gravity is the Blockbuster one , It had a huge box office even before awards season . Also this is the Golden Globes and they love their stars, whatever prejudice they might have on Gravity being a sci-fi is nullified Clooney and Bullock.

If a movie can't grab you at home, I don't think it deserves to be Best Drama.

The Wind Rises in the foreign film category but not the animated one is such a joke. Outside of that, go American Hustle, Gravity, and Rush I guess? Meh.
