2018 Golden Globe Nomination Predictions

Ah, the Golden Globes - the awards season precursor I love to hate on…until I remember the Hollywood Foreign Press Association bestowed upon Sigourney Weaver not one but two prizes in 1988. My favorite part of predicting the Globes is I can list the delightful likes of Elsie Fisher, Nick Robinson, Charlize Theron, Constance Wu and the cast of Book Club, none of whom have a real prayer at an Oscar nom.

With that said, here's my hunch on how the 2018 Golden Globe nominations might just go down, ranked from most to least likely to be nominated.
