They nominated Cars 2 for Best Animated Feature? The one Pixar movie that sucks?

I was SOO HAPPY when Idris Elba won, he's an awesome actor. And since only two black actors won it was nice to see him being one of them. I was also ecstatic to see American Horror Story Jessica Lange win. She was continuously one of the best parts of the show.
Also thank God for the Homeland wins, because I was pretty disappointed by the lack of love in most of the other categories. Bridesmaids for instance got nothing. and when will Amy Poehler get what she deserves?
Next year, it better be Parks and Rec, Community, Louie, Wilfred, and Modern Family for the nods. But only if I'm dreaming...

Is there a reason why I can't comment on the Golden Globes fashion article? Anyway, I don't know who's writing those articles, but I think their fashion sense is a little broken.
