There are some interesting picks for nominees this year, which isn't unexpected for the HFPA, but I'm still surprised to see films like Rush nabbing so many nomination spots. Then again, this is just the norm for the Globes every year. A taste of things to come with the Oscars? Or just another wacky set of highly selective Globes films this year? What do you make of the 2014 Golden Globes nominations?
