I don’t know. I assumed those were for specials released years ago. Schumer’s special was trash but it was advertised as one of their biggest releases when it came out. Gervais hosted the Golden Globes in 2016 and is a recognizable face. These guys are like mediocre classic rock bands when they go on reunion tours.…

I just don’t get it. Why now? Doesn’t this just highlight the failing of the league? If they’re making it seem like he’s got a shot now, after 3 years out of the league, what are we supposed to think was going on all that time?

It would help if the filing cited some non-mega-famous comedians. $500k does seem a little low (I have no idea really) but comparing herself to huge names like those isn’t doing her any favors. Chris Rock and Chapelle? I mean come on...

You’d prefer Trump to Bernie?? What’s the Hillary equivalent of a Bernie Bro because I think we just found it.

Are you under the impression that everyone has the same body you do?

Do you mean after the plane is done taxiing? I sometimes stand (only if I’m in the aisle seat and it’s a long flight) because my legs, ass and back are fucking killing me after being crammed into an uncomfortable sitting position for hours. Sitting is not more relaxing at that point. Why would you prefer to sit after…

lol you’re so mad that your limp-dicked idol is going down in flames that you’re making accounts to troll comment message boards with pathetic quips that 6th-graders would roll their eyes at. Evaluate your priorities in life. 

What? Those posts are very clearly dripping with irony... she’s making fun of white women (and white people in general). Why she leapt from fedora-guy to that, I have no idea.

Agreed. There should be a workaround for films like this that should obviously qualify as international. 

Oh man, I forgot all about her. What is she thinking getting her name back in the spotlight?

You really enjoy being a dick, don’t you? I don’t do research before every post I make here. What kind of bullshit is that?

True, but then UK films would probably have a significant advantage just because academy members are more likely to have seen them.

Yep it’s still eligible to be nominated in other categories. 

I think they mostly have that rule to exclude British films from being eligible to win best international film. At least that’s what I’ve always assumed.

God damn. They actually fucking killed it...

A lot of weird stuff going on that office. Pretty sure I saw a thin blue line flag and is that a damn ISIS flag below the Nazi one? Seems like a fun place.

“Don’t use the Armenian genocide as a cudgel in a political fight,” says politician using the Armenian genocide as a cudgel in a political fight.

Man, I am torn by this. It’s obviously true that there have been situations where right-minded people have been too quick to turn on public figures for minor missteps, but I’m not really sure this is helpful right now. Feels like it’s lending credence to the anti-PC crowd and moderates using this as a smokescreen to…

So triggered that he posted that same thing verbatim 8 times in this comment section in the course of a few minutes. I think he’s broken. 

Ah, the classic 5.2 - 4.8 = .4 height mistake. I blame moving to Germany and the stupidity of imperial measurements for that.
