Even giving the organization credit for cleaning up its act, the attention showered on the Globes feels disproportionate relative to the academy-backed honors (the Oscars, the Emmys) and the guilds representing directors, writers, actors and producers, which have the added legitimacy of being presented by bodies consisting of Hollywood's peers.

Part of that likely has to do with the absence of many truly great movies this year, and the fact key contenders -- like "The Shape of Water" (the pick by the directors and producers guilds) and "Get Out" (the WGA's original screenplay winner) -- come from genres that seldom receive top awards recognition.
