Globes Predictions: Big Night—or Bust—for Button?

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Brad Pitt Paramount Pictures
More from Lyons Den

It's happening already—the Golden Globes kick off the awards-season marathon on Sunday. And this year it's truer than ever: The Globes are always a tough nut to crack.

Conventional wisdom suggests that the winners here can foretell the Academy Awards, right? Well, two years ago Dreamgirls and Babel won big at the Globes—but when the Oscars were handed out, The Departed grabbed Best Picture. Dreamgirls wasn't even nominated.

So what does this mean for the buzzed-about Benjamin Button? And nominee Brad Pitt, for that matter? Check my predictions to get the forecast, see what Kristin and the other E! Online columnists have to say, and check off your own predix, too. All in the new E! Online Red Carpet.

Scarlett Johansson: Hell-Bent on World Domination!

There isn't a more distinctive-looking movie out there, and the cast of The Spirit—directed by Frank Miller, based on Will Eisner's classic hero—knows it.

When we talked recently, Scarlett Johansson explained her taste for villainous conquest, and Sam Jackson, Eva Mendes and Gabriel Macht dished on the unorthodox production. Hit the clip to see what I mean.

Kate & Leo Make Out in Front of Her Husband!

Here's the thing: Kate Winslet has some hot scenes with Leonardo DiCaprio in Revolutionary Road, which was awkward since her actual husband, Sam Mendes, directed it. When we talked this week, she explained how she dealt with that and dished on her Titanic reunion and being proud of her wrinkles and scars. Hit the clip above to see what I mean.

Leonardo DiCaprio: Fame Is Bizarre and Surreal

No surprise here: GQ Leading Man of the Year Leonardo DiCaprio is totally a big fan of Kate Winslet. When we talked this week, Leo went on about his Titanic and now Revolutionary Road costar—and the "shorthand" they use when getting intimate together onscreen. Also, he's got plenty else to say, especially on how fame is weird. Hit the clip to find out why.

Kate Winslet Grows Old, Gets Naked

She's reteaming with Leo DiCaprio in Revolutionary Road, sure, but Kate Winslet's all about moving forward. When we talked this week, she had plenty to say about pushing boundaries with her acting—and about aging and undressing onscreen. She also had a few choice words for a fellow actress. Who's she talking about? Hit the clip to find out.

Daniel Radcliffe Dishes on Final Harry Potter Flicks

Daniel Radcliffe may be in New York City performing Equus on Broadway, but when we sat down this week, he let loose about all things Harry Potter. He had plenty to say about next summer's Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, but also his plans for the final flicks, the two-part Deathly Hallows. Hit the clip for the full story.

Reese Talks Oscar Elf Outfits and 30 Rock Love

Reese Witherspoon knows her comedy, and went out of her way not only to star in Four Christmases with Vince Vaughn but produce it as well. When we talked this week, she spilled about who else she thinks is hilarious in movies these days, on SNL and from Sex and the City, and dropped some thoughts about a 30 Rock guest spot.

Oh, and she admits that she dressed up her Oscar for Christmastime, she really does. Hit the clip to get the full story.

Twilight's Kristen Stewart: Rob's Hair Smells Great!

There isn't a hotter movie out there right now than the vampire love story Twilight, and star Kristen Stewart dished to me about every angle. She does her own stunts, totally gets where her character Bella is coming from, and sees it all as something much more than the story of a girl "in love with the hottest vampire in the world."

Speaking of which, she also told me what it's like being so close to Robert Pattinson's infamously unwashed hair. Hit the clip to get the full story, and check out the latest movie stills in our Twilight gallery below.

Nicole or Gwyneth as Bond Girls? Ask Daniel Craig

Rough-and-tumble spy guy Daniel Craig has plenty to say about this 007 business, even with that nasty arm injury.

He also dished on which of his A-list costars—Nicole Kidman? Gwyneth Paltrow?—over the years would make killer Bond girls.
