You might have noticed this week that we didn’t do a Golden Globes winners prediction piece because, well, they don’t really matter in the overall Oscar race. The Hollywood Foreign Press Association event tends to be more of a celebrity hang than a serious look at the year’s best achievements in cinema. That’s why it’s generally more fun to watch than the Oscars (though, admittedly, that’s a pretty relative measuring stick).
However, for movie obsessives like ourselves, we’re still committed to find out who won, cursing our favorites who didn’t get a trophy, delighting in those that did, and of course, shouting at the TV about all the terrible fashion choices. Basically, it’s like spring training for the Oscars. And while, again, these awards don’t have much bearing on how the Academy will go, it’s clear from the response in the room tonight, the industry really likes “The Revenant.”

Alejandro G. Iñárritu‘s film took home three big prizes, winning Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Actor (in the Drama categories). But let’s not forget that “The Martian” is still in play too, with the film earning Best Director and Best Actor in, uh, the comedy category. As you might’ve noticed on Twitter, there was some hurt feelings that “Mad Max: Fury Road” and “Carol” walked away empty handed, but they are still likely to see nominations from Oscars on Thursday, so their narrative isn’t over yet.
Below, see who won, and in the comments section, let us know your thoughts on the night.
