Milk left out of best picture, No 'best comedy' for Tropic Thunder

(NEWSER) - The list of Golden Globe nominations is an interesting one, in part for what’s not on it, CNN reports.

Gervais skewers NBC, HFPA, Eddie Murphy ... and Madonna skewers him

(NEWSER) - "So, where was I?" began Ricky Gervais, drink in hand, as he sauntered on stage to open the Golden Globes. "Nervous?" He wasted no time throwing out a few insults, noting that he was hosting the show on NBC, "America's third biggest network. Or is it fourth?" He moved on to the show itself, calling the Globes "just like the Oscars, except without all that esteem." More of the best lines from the night:

• "The Golden Globes are to the Oscars what Kim Kardashian is to Kate Middleton," Gervais said, going on to call them louder, drunker, and "more easily bought."
• The first actor to get skewered by Gervais: Eddie Murphy, who backed out of hosting the Oscars . "When the man who said yes to Norbit says no to you, you know you're in trouble."

'Golden Globes' host makes a 'Beaver' joke...

(NEWSER) - While making a joke about "Jodie Foster's beaver" in his Golden Globes monologue, host Ricky Gervais noted that he hadn't seen it himself—and that he had "spoken to a lot of guys here, they haven't seen it either. That doesn't mean it's not any good." TMZ wonders whether Gervais was implying Foster is a lesbian—a longstanding Hollywood rumor the actress has not spoken about publicly. Foster didn't appear upset when the camera turned to her, TMZ notes; in fact, she gave Gervais' Beaver joke a double thumbs-up . More Golden Globes coverage here . More»
