Video Big wins, surprises highlight the 2026 Golden Globe Awards

The 84th Golden Globe Awards came to a close last night, leaving audiences with more questions than answers. The highly anticipated ceremony was marked by several unexpected twists and turns that shook up the industry landscape.

One of the most notable surprises was the top prize winner in the drama category - "Hamnet" took home the coveted award for Best Motion Picture - Drama. Many critics had initially written off the film, which tells the story of a young boy's tragic fate during Shakespeare's time, as a long shot. However, its emotional resonance and nuanced performances ultimately paid off.

But it wasn't just one film that stole the show. "One Battle After Another," a lesser-known war drama, took home the award for Best Motion Picture - Musical or Comedy, sending shockwaves through the industry. The film's unexpected win raised eyebrows among critics who had praised it as an arthouse curiosity rather than a mainstream hit.

Meanwhile, a new wave of K-Pop-infused entertainment swept across the stage, with "KPop Demon Hunters" emerging as one of the night's most talked-about moments. This genre-bending series has captured audiences' attention worldwide, blending high-energy music with action-packed storylines and social commentary. Its Golden Globe win marked a significant milestone in its global expansion.

The 2026 Golden Globes will undoubtedly go down as one of the most unpredictable nights in recent memory. Love it or hate it, this year's awards ceremony has cemented the reputation of these prestigious awards for their boldness and unpredictability.
 
I'm still trying to wrap my head around that "Hamnet" win lol 🀯 I mean, I've seen some crazy predictions online, but I didn't think they'd actually take it home! The KPop Demon Hunters series is insane though - have you guys watched it? It's like nothing I've ever seen before πŸ˜‚πŸ‘€
 
ugh what a joke πŸ™„ they're already making it sound like 2026 is gonna be even crazier than this year lol newsflash: just because you get weird winners doesn't mean anything about the actual quality of the films... btw who thought "KPop Demon Hunters" was a good idea anyway? 🀣 i'm still trying to process how a bunch of k-pop idols and action scenes got lumped in with some genuine awards-worthy dramas
 
I'm telling you, another wild night at the Golden Globes 🀯. I mean, what even is up with "Hamnet" winning Best Drama? I get that it's a great film and all, but come on, critics were like "no way" just weeks ago πŸ˜‚. And don't even get me started on "One Battle After Another". I'm not saying it wasn't deserving of the win, but it was basically an arthouse curiosity to begin with πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. The KPop Demon Hunters thing is cool and all, but can we just have some actual awards for acting performances? I mean, are the actors even a priority anymore? πŸ™„
 
omg u guys! i cant even right now!! "hamnet" won best drama? like who saw that comin? critics were low-key trash on that movie 2 b honest lol but i guess emotions & performances r hard 2 beat. and omg "kpop demon hunters" tho!!! i mean, i love a good kpop infuse in my entertainment & this show does it tho!! high energy music + social commentary = perfection πŸ€©πŸŽ‰ what's ur take on the golden globes? should they stick 2 traditional awards or mix it up more like dis year??
 
I'm genuinely surprised by "Hamnet" taking home that award 🀯. I mean, it's still a beautiful story and the acting was on point, but I thought for sure it would get lost in the drama category. And can we talk about how weird it is that "One Battle After Another" won best musical/comedy? It just doesn't feel like their vibe at all πŸ˜‚. On a more positive note, I love how K-Pop Demon Hunters is getting some love πŸŽ‰. It's awesome to see these creators pushing boundaries and blending genres in such an exciting way πŸ’₯. The whole thing was pretty wild, though - can't wait to see what 2026 brings πŸ‘€!
 
omg i cant even believe "Hamnet" won 🀯 it was like so unexpected lol i mean idk who wouldve predicted that a movie about some random kid in shakespeare's time would take home the top prize πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ but congrats to them i guess? πŸ˜… and can we talk about how crazy is it that "KPop Demon Hunters" won something now? 2019 was like, Kpop was already starting to blow up worldwide and now its getting recognized globally 🌟 this series has been on my watchlist for ages and im def gonna have to rewatch it ASAP πŸ‘€
 
omg I was SO invested in who would win best pic drama and hamnet totally threw me for a loop! i mean idk how they did it but that ending scene gave me CHILLS 🀯 and as for kpop demon hunters OMG I'm so here for the genre-bending vibes its been my go-to show on netflix lol but i gotta ask what's up with those critics saying it was an arthouse curiosity? didn't they watch the same thing i did?! πŸ˜‚
 
man, what a wild night at the Golden Globes 🀯! I'm still trying to process how "Hamnet" took home that drama award, but you gotta give props to those writers and actors for bringing such an emotional story to life πŸŽ₯. And can we talk about "One Battle After Another" being underdog champ of the year? it's crazy how one film can surprise everyone like that 🀯.

But what really caught my attention was the emergence of K-Pop-infused entertainment on the global stage 🌎. I mean, who knew that a genre-bending series like "KPop Demon Hunters" would resonate with audiences worldwide? It just goes to show how entertainment is evolving and pushing boundaries πŸ’₯. And can we say that's what makes the Golden Globes so exciting – the unpredictability and willingness to take risks πŸŽ‰. Bring it on, 2026!
 
idk what's more surprising "Hamnet" winning or that they even showed some K-Pop series 🀯πŸ’₯πŸŽ‰ but seriously, those numbers are insane - 84% increase in viewership from last year to this year πŸ“ˆπŸ‘€ and the demographics too! 40% of the audience was between 18-34, showing a clear shift towards younger audiences πŸ‘πŸ’¬ and btw, have you seen those #GoldenGlobes stats? 25% of all winners were women πŸ™ŒπŸΌπŸ‘©β€πŸ’Ό and 70% of nominees came from international productions πŸŒŽπŸ‘ that's some serious global recognition πŸ”₯
 
I'm still trying to wrap my head around that "Hamnet" win 🀯! I mean, I loved the film too, but I didn't see it taking home the top prize πŸŽ‰. It's like they said - you could write off a lot of people on that list, but in the end, it was Shakespeare's masterpiece that took the crown πŸ‘‘. And can we talk about how "One Battle After Another" just went from underdog to surprise winner? I love that kinda stuff! 🀯 But what's really got me thinking is how "KPop Demon Hunters" came out of nowhere and won over everyone πŸ’₯. It's like they said, these Golden Globes are all about taking risks and surprising us - and I gotta say, I'm HERE. FOR. IT πŸ˜†

🀯 what a wild night at the Golden Globes! I'm still trying to wrap my head around some of those winners πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ like "Hamnet" taking home Best Drama and "One Battle After Another" getting that Musical/Comedy award πŸŽ‰ it just goes to show you can never predict the industry, right? πŸ’­ I mean, who would've thought a K-Pop-infused series like "KPop Demon Hunters" would be all over the stage and get a win too 🀩. It's like the awards are trying to keep things fresh and exciting. Can't wait for next year's ceremony 😁
 
I'm still trying to wrap my head around that "Hamnet" win 🀯! I mean, I knew they were good but not that good πŸ˜‚. And "One Battle After Another" taking home the musical comedy award? Mind blown! I was expecting a more traditional winner there. But hey, the KPop Demon Hunters thing is kinda cool πŸŽ‰. Their energy on stage was infectious, and it's awesome to see them breaking into mainstream entertainment. The Golden Globes are definitely going to have to up their game if they wanna keep this level of unpredictability πŸ˜…. One thing that did strike me, though, is how much of a role social commentary plays in "KPop Demon Hunters". It adds such an extra layer of depth to the show. Anyways, it's been a wild ride for the entertainment industry 🎬!
 
omg what a wild night!!! i was on the edge of my seat when "Hamnet" won Best Drama lol i mean critics had me pegging it to lose big time but they totally pulled off that upset 🀯 & I'm still shook about "One Battle After Another" taking home the Musical/Comedy award, like what even is that? K-Pop Demon Hunters tho?? genius move by the writers blending music and action in a way that's both entertaining and thought-provoking πŸ’₯ can't wait to see how they expand this franchise πŸŽ‰
