Two Things to remember

No.

1:The Hollywood Foreign Press Association votes early.

Early enough to leave room for a few late-breaking players to sneak into the Oscar conversation.

Now, lets break down the major categories most heavily impacted by snubs and surprises.

For men, those numbers are 65.45 percent and 18.18 percent, respectively.

We still have a race on our hands, so dont dismissThe Big SickorThe Florida Projectyet.

THE VERDICT:Still out.

Expect one or two slots to switch by Oscar nominations morning.

That means 17 directors have received an Oscar nod without a Golden Globe nomination and vice versa.

Best Supporting Actress:

Critics singular voting patterns are most apparent in the supporting actress race.

Only 11 actresses since 2006 have received an Oscar nod without a Globe nod.

Consecutively from 2006 to 2012, one actress per year didnt make the jump.

2013 saw all supporting actress nominees match with Oscars crop of honorees, as did 2016.

Statistics show that most of our Oscar nominees are probably among the Globes five-strong supporting actress set.

History shows thatonemight give way to either Leo, Haddish, or Hunter.

Supporting actor nominees matched 100 percent in 2009 and 2014.
