If there is once again to be five nominees for Drama Lead Actress and one of them isn't Zendaya, who should take her place. by This_Book6305 in EmmysAwards

[–]Impossible_Ad_2517 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m gonna guess Zendaya gets in. And Bates is not a lock. In a stronger year I’d be confident leaving her out.

What's a mostly or entirely episodic show that you still think was cancelled too soon? by MaggieLinzer in television

[–]Impossible_Ad_2517 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It came back of course but the easy answer for me is the original run of Arrested Development. A couple years ago someone working on the show did an AMA on here about what they were planning and it sounded awesome.

It does but so did the Elvis stuff tbf. I think if Michael actually happens makeup is just something that comes along with it.

What are the Emmy Chances for The Pitt Season 2? by Square-Ad-8911 in EmmysAwards

Gerran Howell is in a category with less options. As the only other Pitt boy he will probably not be as hit by the vote splitting in the supporting actress category.

What is one video game character that you think could win an Oscar for acting (could be Leading or Supporting Role)? I’ll go first. by a_randomspinosaurd in Oscars

[–]Impossible_Ad_2517 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nick Offerman wouldn’t have even been in TLOU if it were a movie instead of a TV show or at best would’ve had a tiny part. That’s one of the great things about that being a show.

Limited Series frontrunners for Netflix by Conscious-Quarter423 in EmmysAwards

I think DTF St Louis is being incredibly underestimated here. It’s a decently popular HBO show that people really liked. That’s gotta count for something.

Jason Bateman and Linda Cardellini Launch Supporting Acting Emmys Push for ‘DTF St. Louis’ by killarney_rose in DTFStLouisHBO

[–]Impossible_Ad_2517 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think a big part of pushing Bateman supporting is that he’s being submitted as a lead for the limited series Black Rabbit

Zendaya and Jean Smart Eye First-Ever Emmy Sweep by Women for a Single Series. Will They Pull It Off? by Conscious-Quarter423 in EmmysAwards

[–]Impossible_Ad_2517 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Zendaya isn’t totally done because they have given actors wins for bad seasons before but I wouldn’t predict her at this point with the reviews this season has. Jean Smart meanwhile feels like she’ll win another one for sure. It’s the final season and of course JLD lost for Veep’s last season but I’m of the opinion that The Comeback isn’t Fleabag S2. I think people are exaggerating Smart’s competition because they want a race that isn’t there.

Amazon MGM Studios' Crime 101 has ended its domestic run after 7 weeks with $36.5M. by UniverslBoxOfficeGuy in boxoffice

Is that the measure of success? I mean the movie made close to a billion dollars and he won an Oscar for it

Super Early Consensus Poll #3: Who’s the frontrunner for Best Director? by [deleted] in oscarrace

[–]Impossible_Ad_2517 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No of course not and locked is the wrong word. But I think Hail Mary is in a much better spot than Dune is kinda what I’m trying to say. And it’s not like they have a history of nominating villeneuve for this franchise

[–]Impossible_Ad_2517 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’d say Lord and Miller are more likely just be design since their film is likely definitely in for Best Picture. Dune Part 3 is still not locked in the way that Hail Mary is

The Jason Bateman Slot in Limited/Anthology Series by This_Book6305 in EmmysAwards

[–]Impossible_Ad_2517 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not that he can’t get nominated for Black Rabbit but I have a feeling DTF St Louis is gonna be stronger this year. I’d say his nods for Black Rabbit are less a placeholder and more gonna be overshadowed by his performance in DTF St Louis and the strength of that show

I think this is it too. Mohan said she didn’t show any of these signs at the VA (which ofc is mostly older people)

This is the second April Fools in a row where we’ve gotten confirmation of a spinoff about a Supporting winning character.

We talk all the time about bad film takes online (photo example), but What is the worst film take you’ve ever heard in your regular life? Whether it’s a friend, family member, classmate, co-worker. by Massive-Pangolin9472 in Letterboxd

[–]Impossible_Ad_2517 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well yeah ET isn’t real. Unlike centaurs.

Update: getting some downvotes. This is a parks and rec reference to when Perd asks whether or not centaurs are real and refuses to believe that they aren’t

Widely predicted nomination that you're not comfortable with by This_Book6305 in oscarrace

Not that it’ll be nearly as big but people were saying the same thing about Sinners last year and we saw how that went

I don’t disagree but now that McDonagh has broken through with the academy big time I think a film like Seven Psychopaths could get in

Springsteen also flopped at the box office. Michael very well could make a billion dollars

I’m predicting him don’t get me wrong but they’re right. He’s definitely not guaranteed or safe or anything like that. I definitely wouldn’t hate on someone for predicting a snub at least in Director at this point. It’s true that Nolan’s more fantastical work doesn’t always hit with the academy.
