I personally think Laura Linney (or Linnely, as Jamie Foxx called her) was robbed once again. Although I still don't know why Squid and the Whale would be in the comedy category. It's the same as Transamerica, a drama with lots of funny moments.
The movie was a very slick production and I think that took away from the overall effect. But, I liked her in it. I do think though that this year there was some stiff competition - -all of which were deserving.

Horrid, horrid fashion this year. I was going to make a "worst dressed" list but I ran out of room. Biggest disappointments for me were Kyra Sedgewick (loved the top half of the dress, but it was fug from the belted waist down), Faith Hill (horrendous - black ruffles? was she kidding?), Drew Barrymore (sloppy, sloppy, sloppy).

Pam & Mariah? Soooooooo tack.

My faves were:

Marcia Cross - how this redhead pulled off a tangerine number, I'll never know. But she did. A bit too thin, though.

Sandra Oh - loved the way the dress draped over her, the back was awesome. She didn't look frighteningly thin this time either.

Jessica Alba - I like her, she's cute. Loved the dress.

Virginia Madsen - classy, classy, classy.

Men - I really don't care, their tuxes all look the same to me. Johnny Depp looked damn good & not as freaky as usual. My Matthew was hawt as per usual. That's about it.

Sorry if this has already been brought up but what's up with Joaquin Phoenix? Is it just me or was he definitely on something? He looked pasty, sweaty, and glossy eyed during his speech. Definitely not sober. I know there were some rumors going around that he was having major mood swings during the press junkets for Walk the Line and hasn't he had a history of drug or alcohol abuse?

Not only that, but he was hugging on the guy next to him for awhile, which was cool, but odd that it was so public. I also think he is very shy.

I thought she looked horrid. It's hard to top her get-up from the Emmy's, though.

It was a shock to actually see her clothed for once. I'm sick and tired of looking at her tits and midriff, but I suppose that's all you can really do is show off your bod when you've got not an ounce of talent.

She can do no wrong lately. Not only is she beautiful, but she's got an amazing figure. Love her.

Johnny Depp looked ****ing ridiculous, hon.

Eye of the beholder, baby. He alwyas looks...different. Compared to his last getup (at the Oscars?), he looked like a friggin' GQ model this time. I never realized how butt ugly his girlfriend is though. They showed a closeup of her on TV - holy snaggletooth.

Madsen made a few "worst dressed" lists. I am shocked.

I think it's the pattern on the dress. It is something to be appreciated, but not everyone "gets it".

He looked devilish and unkempt to me. That red shirt looked atrocious with his skin and that facial hair...oy. He looked like he was going bowling, not to the Golden Globes.

I am, too. Unbelievable. I'm just glad she made such a big career comeback, though.

I think JP looked like he always does, at least in the interviews I have seen him on. I remember one on, I think, Oprah, where Reese had to sit there and coax him and hold his hand. But, he does look stoned - so you may be right

As for Madsen - I do not think she is conventionally pretty in the slightest and her teeth are equinine. But, I think she is a good actress and she does the best with what she has lookswise
