I’m ok with most of those. Those are some fantastic actors that deserve recognition. Not their fault they were given a garbage script. Fair enough I guess for the cameramen, hairstylists, etc.

The nominees for directing and writing, though, can go **** right off

The only actor I would disagree with is Kit. He just ain't very good, and with all the good actors on television he certainly doesn't belong.

I thought he did a good job of looking nervous when the big lizard got angry because the blonde girl got hurt and it melted the metal chair made of spikey things ...

What was the plot again?

Benioff and Weiss getting a nomination for writing has to be the most ridiculous one on that list.

I dunno, you may disagree with their hasty plot points, but writing is more than that. The dialogue and scene-building etc. was still on point.

Yeah, the writing and directing awards are for single episodes.

So now i want to know what they’re nominated for with the “outstanding prosthetic makeup” thing. It would be fun if it was for Hodordick but that was quite a few seasons ago


(It’s probably for the white walker faces)

Any writer who takes 15 minutes post episode to explain what you just saw and why the characters did what they did has no business accepting an award.

They got the nomination for the episode, The Iron Throne. You know, the one where they made Bran king and spent an inordinate amount of time showing a staff meeting. Great stuff.

Lindsay Ellis poses with liquor bottles, and looks like she's been hitting them pretty hard in real life. But she explains the **** out of why the ending was so terrible.



[Don't bother with part 1, it's crap]

ETA: and she only says her catch phrase ("problematic") a few times.
