The 73rd annual Golden Globes was full of some surprising wins on Sunday (even more surprising than usual). Even with positive critic reviews for revenge drama “The Revenant,” not many expected it to nab the best drama award, and while “The Martian” has been a commercial success, a Best Comedy award was confusing to most.

The two films together won the most film awards than any other nominated film. Alejandro Gonzalez Iñárritu’s won best drama, best director and Leonardo DiCaprio took home best actor.  “The Revenant” was followed close behind by Ridley Scott’s “The Martian,” which aside from being named best musical or comedy by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, also bestowed Matt Damon with the award for best actor in a musical or comedy for his work in the film.

Other winners in the film categories included Brie Larson (best actress in a drama for “Room”), Jennifer Lawrence (best actress in a musical or comedy for “Joy”), Sylvester Stallone (best supporting actor for “Creed”), Kate Winslet (best supporting actress for “Steve Jobs”), and Aaron Sorkin (best screenplay for “Steve Jobs”).

Going into the broadcast, Todd Haynes’ “Carol” and Adam McKay’s “The Big Short” outnumbered all the other nominees with five and four nominations each. Unfortunately, both films went home empty handed on Sunday night.

The critically acclaimed film “Spotlight” also lost its bids for best screenplay, best drama, and best director. With only 90 voting members in the HFPA, their choices aren’t always in sync with the rest of us, but the results of the night have many wondering how their picks will align with the Academy when the Oscar nominations are announced on Thursday.

On the television side, two newcomers–and relatively unknown shows– took home top honors: “Mr. Robot” was named best drama series, while “Mozart in the Jungle” took home best comedy. Other first-time winners included Rachel Bloom (best actress in a comedy for “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend”) and Lady Gaga.

This year’s Golden Globes ceremony was hosted by Ricky Gervais. The acerbic comic made his fourth appearance as Globes host, and first since the 2012 broadcast, and his return was met with plenty of controversy. He opened the show with a monologue that referred to how Caitlin Jenner’s transition did no favors to female drivers, which sparked plenty of criticism on social media, later in the show he also mocked Mel Gibson and Bill Cosby.

Despite four new films premiering wide and a critic favored film expanding wide, Ridley Scott’s “The Martian” starring Matt Damon took the top spot at the box office once again.

The film is estimated to finish the weekend bringing in $15.9 million, bringing its fourth week total to $166 million. “Goosebumps,” starring Jack Black, dropped to second with an estimated $15.5 million. The first new film to make an appearance is Vin Diesel’s “The Last Witch Hunter,” in fourth place following the Steven Spielberg directed “Bridge of Spies.”

“The Last Witch Hunter” performed the best out of the new releases with an estimated $10.8 million. The final film of the “Paranormal Activity” franchise, “The Ghost Dimension,” came in sixth place with a reported $8.4 million. Both films had phenomenal opening weekends compared to the two true flops: “Rock The Kasbah” and “Jem and the Holograms.”

“Rock the Kasbah,” Bill Murray’s political comedy came in at 13 with $1.5 million. In 2,012 theaters, the film average only $750 per theater. But at least Kasbah did much better than Universal’s “Jem and the Holograms.” The film, based on the 80s cartoon, averaged just $539 in over 2,400 screens, bringing in $1.3 million.

“Steve Jobs,” starring Michael Fassbender, Kate Winslet, Seth Rogen and Jeff Daniels, expanded nationwide to 2,493 theaters. The film had success in limited release, but failed to continue that through its wide release. The film came in seventh place with $7.3 million. With an 85% score on Rotten Tomatoes and an A- CinemaScore, it’s likely that the film could garner some good word of mouth to boost performance.

Full top ten estimates:
1. The Martian – $15.9 million
2. Goosebumps – $15.5 million
3. Bridge of Spies- $11.4 million
4. The Last Witch Hunter – $10.8 million *
5. Hotel Transylvania 2 – $9 million
6. Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension – $8.2 million*
7. Steve Jobs – $7.3 million
8. Crimson Peak – $5.6 million
9. The Intern – $3.9 million
10. Sicario – $2.95 million
* indicates premiere weekend.
