50 Tweets From the Burlesque/Golden Globes Culture War
Meanwhile, a crew of jaded pros and other cultural observers weighed in from the distance of the sidelines:
From now on, it's the Golden Globe-nominated Burlesque to you, buddy.
Rubbing your eyes repeatedly won't help. Yes, #Burlesque was nominated for a Golden Globe.
Congrats to makers of Burlesque for making me spit up my early morning coffee.
So tired. But I wanna catch up on my Golden Globe nominees. Is there an 8 am "Burlesque" showing anywhere?
@HitFixDaniel True Grit doesn't pull a nomination but Burlesque does. Incredible.
Wow, that list of Globe nominees for Best Musical or Comedy is hilarious...ly awful. A good reminder of why the HFPA is a fraud.
BURLESQUE just got a Golden Globe nomination. Excuse me while I prepare my Pulitzer Prize acceptance speech for this Tweet.
At least a few filmmakers made their bemusement and/or abject disappointment known:
okay, Burlesque got a Golden Globe nomination. Whew, I can relax now.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahah "BURLESQUE" gets a Golden Globe nod! I should quit making movies now.
Golden Globes nominations are out: read 'em and weep (or rejoice). One word: Burlesque. (?!?!?!?)
Burlesque being nominated for a Golden Globe has sent my producer into a fit of film rage, the likes of which I have never seen.
And let's see, who else? Oh! Here are some gay-trend watchers...
Burlesque got a Best Picture Comedy/Musical Golden Globe nod. Was it that bad a year for comedy or is the Foreign Press that gay? Or both?
Burlesque, Glee, Gyllenhaal, Hathaway, Depp X2, Jolie, Gosling, Franco = Homosexual Foreign Press Association
...and perhaps my favorite bloc of all, the international observers whose comments barely need translation:
E eu achei que EU estava de porre.... Red? Burlesque? e por aí vai...
(Translation from Portuguese: "And I thought I was drunk .... Red? Burlesque? and so on...")
Burlesque indicado? HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!
Burlesque no globo de ouro kkkkkkkkkkkkkkk morto
Quiero que Burlesque gane el globo de oro como mejor musical.
visto el éxito de Burlesque, el bio-pic de Justin Bieber huele a Oscar
Burlesque teve 3 indicações e mesmo assim tá flopando
Melhor Filme de Comédia ou Musical: BURLESQUE! BURLESQIE! BURLESQUE! BURLESQUE FTW!
FTW! Or... not. What do you say?

This is the same category where The Hangover won last year, correct?
How are these awards relevant again?
"Flopando"= new favorite word
Loved Burlesque the movie, and, everybody in the Theater Loved the movie too.... We clapped and laughed at all the right parts.... What the hell ... F**** all you critics you pretentious little A-holes. It was a fun entertaining movie with a great Sountrack.... Now go somwhere and sulk.... Douch Bags. Take your dollys and leave!!! LOL
One of the Twitter-ers have a good point - the nom is for the fact that it's a musical at ALL, not for the quality of the performances. I could tell fifteen minutes into Burlesque that it was Coyote Ugly set in the Moulin Rouge, but I still enjoyed it. Let's be honest, were any of us really expecting Burlesque to be a GOOD movie, or just a pretty one?
