Golden Globes Jilt ‘Milk,’ ‘Dark Knight’; ‘In Treatment’ Leads TV Noms

No looming strike will slow down this year’s Golden Globe Awards, nominations for which were announced this morning with a few mildly head-cramping surprises.

The good news: Slumptastic Revolutionary Road finally got some awards season recognition! The bad news: It came at Milk’s expense. And in the TV categories, In Treatment’s five nods surpassed Mad Men, 30 Rock and Entourage, each with three nominations. A full list of nominees follows the jump. We’ll have a closer read through the nominees later this morning after we properly suit up for another journey into Awards Hell, but for now we ask: James Franco as Best Actor for Pineapple Express? And: Between the four nominations apiece for Vicky Cristina Barcelona and The Reader, how about those Weinsteins?
