There's not a lot different from the Golden Globes.  Spike Lee still got snubbed but at least Minari is better represented.  I read somewhere that Steven Yeun is the first Asian-American ever nominated for Best Actor.  Ever.  Like in 90-something years.  When people like James Shigeta and Toshiro Mifune existed.  Anyway, more movies than ever are streaming so I have a good feeling about being able to see most of these before April 25.  Even if I have to buy Apple+ for a month to get Greyhound and Wolfwalkers.  As always, keep checking back here to see my progress.
