SNL Highlights: Sigourney Weaver

Last night, Sigourney Weaver did her best with some lackluster material. Here are the best sketches from the night:



This recurring Keenan sketch is hit or miss, but The Brandy Snifter was great. Plus, damn Sigourney is HOT.



The opening sketch was a whole drawn out Larry King/Conan/Leno sketch, but I didn't find that very funny. Seth Meyers did an excellent sum up of the whole situation. Plus, the Meryl Streep bit was great. Speaking of, check out my predictions for tonight's Golden Globes.

And lastly, Laser Cats added another chapter to the story with the help of James Cameron.

Golden Globe Predictions

Tonight are the Golden Globes, the most fun of the award shows. I'm looking forward to Ricky Gervais's hosting skills, he's always pretty quick-witted and hilarious. He veers towards the "almost-too-awkward-to-be-funny" humor, but most of the time it toes the line just right. Below are my Golden Globe predictions in bold.

"Up in the Air" may have the most nominations, but I don't think it's going to win the most. I think "Inglorious Basterds" could take the most home - Best Screenplay, Best Supporting, and I even think it has a shot at Best Picture. It's just such a well done movie, and impressive that it seamlessly weaves through 3 languages. Who do you guys think will be taking home the awards?
