The Golden Globes. Who Will Win: Who Should Win:

Best Drama
The Descendants
The Help
Hugo
The Ides of March
Moneyball
War Horse

Who will win: War Horse. It's a Speilberg vechile, plus Best Drama at the Globes never wins Best Picture at the Oscars.
Who should win: The Descendants was my favorite of this list, but I wouldn't be upset if The Help won either.

Best Comedy/Musical
50/50
The Artist
Bridesmaids
Carnage
Midnight in Paris
My Week with Marilyn
Who will win: The Artist (or, Bridesmaids..but hopefully not)
Who should win: 50/50. It seems the HFPA has a big golden boner for The Artist. I haven't see it, so all I can really say is how much I love 50/50 and how much I think it deserves to win.

Best Animated Film
Arthur Christmas
Cars 2
Rango
Puss in Boots
The Adventures of Tintin
