The list of nominations for the 72nd Annual Golden Globe Awards (of 2015), the yearly precursor to the Academy Awards, have just been announced today - you can find all the film nominees below. The infamous Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced the nominees this morning from The Beverly Hilton. The selection this year is solid, but as always full of some wacky picks, and a few snubs. The top nominees are Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu's Birdman along with Linklater's Boyhood and Cumberbatch's The Imitation Game. There's even some oddball ones like Quvenzhané Wallis from Annie. Full list below!

I'm excited to see Birdman and Boyhood doing so well this early in the awards season. A taste of things to come with the Oscars? Or just another wacky set of highly selective Globes films this year?

It's a shame Channing Tatum got overlooked in the acting categories for Foxcatcher. I thought he was the best actor in it, but I had a feeling that would happen - I hope he gets at least nominated at the Oscars.. Even though I didn't care much for Gone Girl, I think Rosamund Pike gets best Actress. Hanz Zimmer definitely did the best score in my opinion for Interstellar.
