The 2022 American Film and Television Golden Globe Awards is about to be held as scheduled, and this year's Golden Globe Awards organizational structure has undergone earth-shaking changes. Relatively unknown comedian Joe Coy will be the host, and this year's Golden Globes jury has diversified, with more than 300 judges from 76 countries and regions, including many new judges from across Europe, the Americas, Asia and Africa. Importantly, the Golden Globes have evolved from a non-governmental organization to a corporate nature, and have undergone a dismantling and restructuring that has given new life to the event. This change can be described as a comprehensive and profound reform of the historic Golden Globe Awards, and it also means that the selection of the Golden Globes is more global, more inclusive, and conducive to improving the fairness and authority of the awards. After the collapse of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the management of the Golden Globes, along with its assets, was transferred to the Eldridge consortium owned by Dick Clark Productions and Todd Boehly, the new owner of the English Premier League club Chelsea.
The Penske Group, together with the Eldridge consortium, acquired the entire stake in Dick Clark Productions, which means that the helm of the Golden Globes has also changed, and this reform is not just a superficial reform, but a complete change. This reform is not only a salvation for the Golden Globes themselves, but also a baptism for the entire Hollywood industry. For the fairness and authority of the Golden Globe Awards, this reform is undoubtedly a positive attempt. At the same time, the addition of new judges has also brought more multicultural elements to the selection of the Golden Globe Awards, making them more inclusive and more global. Under such a reform, the fairness and authority of the Golden Globe Awards will be improved, and it will also be more conducive to excavating and displaying more excellent film and television works. Through a new jury composition, a new governing body, and a global selection vision, this reform aims to enhance the credibility and internationalization of the Golden Globe Awards, and provide a more fair and objective selection platform for global film and television works. Under the new Golden Globe Awards selection system, we also hope to see more outstanding film and television works from different countries and regions being fairly evaluated and recognized, so as to promote the development and exchange of the global film and television industry.
This reform is undoubtedly an innovation for the Golden Globe Awards, and it will also have a positive impact on the global film and television industry. Netizen Comments:1"The reform of the Golden Globe Awards is timely, and by introducing more judges from different countries and regions, it can better reflect the diversity of the global film and television industry, so that more excellent film and television works can be duly recognized. ”2."The reform of the Golden Globe Awards is of great significance, which not only enhances the fairness and authority of the awards, but also provides a more open platform for the exchange and development of global film and television works. ”3."The reform of the Golden Globe Awards is full of expectations, and I hope that under the new selection system, we can see more outstanding film and television works from all over the world receive the attention and recognition they deserve. "The diversity of the Golden Globes jury has a potential impact on the outcome. New awards or increased ratings. The composition of diversity echoes the diversity of society, or brings unexpected awards. Set up box office awards to attract more audiences. A number of new films are expected to hit the awards and may change the fate of the Golden Globes. Taylor Swift announced on Weibo that she had been nominated for a Golden Globe Award, and the Golden Globes added a special award for stand-up comedy shows, an innovative move that was quite attractive.
Stand-up comedy shows in the United States have always been loved by audiences, from Ellen DeGeneres to Jimmy Canmore. However, important awards in this industry have been missing. In the Emmys, stand-up comedy is categorized as an excellent variety special, but it has to compete with completely different shows such as live ** shows, which is somewhat puzzling. This year's Golden Globes will not be awarding Lifetime Achievement Awards in the film and television categories, which last year went to Eddie Murphy and Ryan Murphy, respectively. As for whether they will be the last two Golden Globe Lifetime Achievement Award winners, and whether these two awards will be reinstated in the future, it is not yet known. Another big news at the Golden Globes is that the ** for the big package has risen to $500,000, which is a new record in Hollywood history. According to 2020 statistics from the U.S. Census Bureau, only 2 percent of households with an annual household income of $500,000 are in the United States9%。For these Hollywood stars, just by attending an awards ceremony or winning an award, they can easily get a gift package worth more than 97 in the United States1% of households.
In fact, the number of places in the gift package has been predetermined, and all the awarders plus the winners will have a total of 83 people, who will only receive a "gift list" on the spot, and then slowly choose what they like. When celebrities accept prize packages, whether they need to pay taxes becomes a hot topic. Recently, a luxury gift package worth up to $500,000 has attracted much attention, but according to the relevant US tax laws, the star who receives such a gift bag should pay up to 37% tax. Event organizers have replaced the physical prizes in the packages with redemption vouchers, which are only taxable if the star chooses to redeem them. This has sparked widespread discussion about whether celebrities should pay taxes on luxury gift packagesIn the past, similar incidents have occurred repeatedly. For example, at the 2016 Oscars, the stars received luxury gift bags worth up to $200,000 sparked similar controversy. At the time, some considered the prizes to be a form of remuneration for labor and should be taxed;While others argue that these gifts are given as publicity and should not be considered taxable income. A similar situation has been seen at other Grand Prix events, which has also sparked discussion and questioning of tax rules.
In response to this problem, netizens also expressed their opinions. Some support the approach of event organizers, arguing that it would take the burden off the stars and allow them to focus more on enjoying the prizes. At the same time, there are also objections, arguing that celebrities should pay taxes like ordinary citizens, after all, it is their obligation to engage in public occupation. There are also some people who put forward suggestions for reform, hoping that the relevant departments can revise the tax regulations and make more reasonable provisions for such special circumstances, which can not only ensure tax fairness, but also take care of the special status of celebrities. The tax controversy caused by this incident is not only about the celebrities themselves, but also about the fairness and applicability of the tax. Against this backdrop, the relevant authorities may need to re-examine the tax rules to better balance the interests of the public and the interests of individuals. At the same time, celebrities also have a responsibility to comply with tax laws, and as public figures, their actions and opinions will have a certain impact on society. In the future, it is hoped that this problem can be solved in an equal and just way, so that celebrities can enjoy the prizes fairly and reasonably, and at the same time, it will also provide a better reference for social tax management. Hollywood's Golden Globe glory days are gone, and their appeal is far less than it once was.
The audience no longer cares as much about winning or not winning the award as they used to. However, the Golden Globes themselves are concerned about their success. If we want to regain our former glory, we will need to attract at least 10 million viewers before we can barely start to recover. If there are some big differences in the extraordinary awards, it is the award for Best Song for Best ** and Comedy "Cats". Director Tom Hopper noted that the film, which uses state-of-the-art cinematography and visual effects techniques, has received unprecedented criticism after its theatrical release. Some netizens commented that the movie "Cats" can be called one of the biggest bad movies in Hollywood history, and there is no praise from the box office to word of mouth. Another controversial film, The Irishman, failed to win Best Picture, which also sparked a lot of controversy. Director Martin Scorsese's new film brings together Hollywood's veteran actors, and the film went home "empty-handed" despite receiving multiple nominations. Some netizens questioned this, believing that it was disrespectful to Scorsese's directing skills. At the ceremony, the Best Picture award went to "1917", which attracted attention for its new shooting technology and visual effects in the history of film and television.
Audiences have recognized this result, believing that "1917" is truly amazing in terms of technical breakthroughs and visual effects. In general, the results of the Golden Globe Awards have sparked a lot of heated discussions, and the quality of the film, the director's skills and innovative technology have become the topics of conversation. The Golden Globes themselves will also face the challenge of how to reinvent their glory, which will also affect the development of the entire Hollywood film industry.
