Will 'Bridesmaids' Get Nominated for Best Comedy/Musical Picture at the Globes?

If so, it could be the Oscar spoiler. Usually, the Academy Award front-runner for Best Picture can be found in the race for Best Drama Picture, but this year the fave, 'The Artist,' is competing in the comedy slot. Normally, crude comedies like 'Bridemaids' wouldn't have a chance to win. "Borat," after all, lost, and 'Knocked Up' and 'The 40-Year-Old Virgin' weren't even nominated by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. But, surprise! 'The Hangover' triumphed in 2009, perhaps signally a new award trend.
