“Barbie” and “Oppenheimer” are two films that have dominated the box office this summer and are expected to command nominations at the upcoming Golden Globes. The Golden Globes have undergone a reformation with a new voting system, a new category for “best cinematic or box office achievement,” and a focus on diversity and inclusivity. Other films such as “Killers of the Flower Moon” and “Poor Things” have also earned critical praise and audience appeal, adding to the competition. The 81st Golden Globes ceremony on January 7th marks a new era for the awards, with a revamped structure and a focus on inclusivity and diversity.
