This year's Golden Globes, had the usual surprises and certain wins, the awkward jokes and the touching speeches, the laughs and the crying.

Overall, here are a few things I learned and wondered this year while watching the Golden Globes:

- No one can stop Jennifer Lawrence: Seriously, what will it take for people to stop handing her awards??? Unless her company keeps paying the Foreign Press Association (According to Ricky Gervais)
- Adam Samberg needs to present next year! He was so funny!
- Apparently we have no idea what the difference between comedy and drama is, if The Martian won nominated and won best comedy (!)
- Taraji P. Henson aka Cookie is the absolute queen
- Why is everyone upset that Lady Gaga won? Have you people actually seen her in AHS? She's awesome and it's her debut role. Excuse me, remember past year's winners ? (hello? Remember Gina Rodriguez?)
- How few good songs were out there this year that "Love me like you do" was nominated and "Writing's on the wall" won?
- Mat Damon is generally a funny guy, but come on FPA! Comedy??
- Why was Sylvester Stallone nominated? Why did he win? Am I seriously missing something for not having seen "Creed"? Is the world upside down?
- When did Amy Schumer became such a hot thing in Hollywood? I get it, she's funny, but seriously, why do people get so ecstatic with her? You know, cases like this, make me seriously consider all kinds of conspiracy theories about how Hollywood is structured
- TV shows on my list after watching the show: Mozart in the Jungle, Show me a hero, Outlander - Films to watch: Room
- Finally, how funny was Leonardo Di Caprio's reaction when Lady Gaga passed behind him, when going to get her And? Priceless

Colorful commentary aside, these is the full winners list. The Revenant dominated the awards, leaving us no questions as to what will the Academy awards nominations be this Thursday; let's hope they don't forget Leo this year...

    Her Dudeness

    Ever since I first set foot on a cinema theatre, I knew that something magical was happening there....

    It's this thrill of somehow becoming (even for a little while) part of the other people's lives -  from different countries, times, cultures.

    It's watching Marlon Brando in "The Godfather", it's singing "Shout!" at the tonga party in the "Animal House", it's Brad Pitt screaming "What's in the box?" at "7seven", it's overall the feeling that somehow "you're not in Kansas anymore"...
