Golden Globes Adds Two New Categories:

They didn’t even need to do it this year. Two of the biggest box-office hits of the year will be nominated in the regular categories anyway: Barbie and Oppenheimer.

We all know it's an attempt to draw eyeballs and since the Golden Globes is a full-fledged corporation now rather than a "foreign press" association, I assume their irrelevance will be a slow burn.

Wonderful idea! It's a way to give some additional exposure to well-known, over-seen films.

I'm fine with a standup comedy award. Although maybe they should do a "Best Comedy Special" as well as "Best Variety Show" to fit the media template more?

That box office award? Man... when will this idea die?

Some possible names for the box office award:

The People’s Choice Award (oops, already taken)

The Guilty Pleasure Award

The Comic Book Movie Award

The Dumbed Down for the Modern Audience Award

The All Hail to the Mighty Dollar Award

One dedicated to box office achievements; the other for stand up comics.

I actually like the latter idea
