And the award nominations keep on coming. On Thursday, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced this year's nominees for the 69th Annual Golden Globes with the help of Woody Harrelson, Gerard Butler, Sofia Vergara and Rashida Jones during a nationwide telecast.  

The French silent film The Artist received the most nominations in six categories while Alexander Payne's The Descendants and The Help followed with five nominations each. The list of nominees include some big names in the acting category such as George Clooney, Ryan Gosling, Meryl Streep, Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, and many more.
On the television side, no one tv series dominated the awards, but HBO did receive 18 total nominations for the cable's series "Game of Thrones," "Boardwalk Empire," and front-runner "Mildred Pierce".  Showtime was second fiddle with 8 nominations.
