That was in the Documentary category, which is different than the entire rest of the Academy. It’s the only place Netflix has had any success, and doesn’t tell you anything about the main categories.

Netflix’s original TV offerings began with Orange is the New Black and House of Cards, both of which became immediate Emmy nominations magnets.

Netflix has actively promoted films as Oscar contenders before. That’s not new. They just suck at it. See, e.g., Beasts of No Nation.

I wasn’t speaking to eligibility, but to the fact that the Academy does not pay attention to films that are primarily released via streaming services.

A moment of silence for a film that could have been a contender, had it not been purchased by Netflix.

So, how did they explain the giant hole that Kara punched through that concrete wall?

Apparently, though, existing deals with his production company haven’t been dropped.

She was signed to a multi-picture deal, it was just for three films, all of which have been made (Batman v. Superman, Wonder Woman, Justice League).

The white backup singer looked remarkably like Jennifer Lawrence in some shots. It was distracting.

I spent a while trying to figure out which song “Maybe She’s Not Such A Heinous Bitch After All” was insistently reminding me of. I think it’s “Be My Baby” by the Ronettes.

Sigh.

While I get that Jane was knocked off balance by Lina’s request to determine if her fiance was a good match, that she seemed to think that the whole 1930 murder mystery bachelor party was dull seemed inconsistent with her character. Lit nerd Jane would be totally into that idea.

The central characters are four boys.

The Duffers said in a recent interview that they expected there’d be more with the Iveses going forward, now that Eleven had met those characters.

Eleven hating Max immediately really rubbed me the wrong way, especially because it’s implied she reacts to Max that way because she’s possessive of Mike. Aka bitches be crazy! Even 13 year olds?

Shippers don’t even need race to be astoundingly nasty to actresses doing their jobs, so when you add race in too, it’s like throwing napalm into a gasoline fire.

The actor issued a statement yesterday, denying that he’s ever committed sexual assault.

Hey, Toni knew to close the deal when he was emotionally vulnerable.

Of course, Graham Phillips’ portrayal of Nick is basically a flashing light that says, “I’m Chuck Bass,” which is glaring in an episode full of more understated performances.

Hey, you come to Boston and tell him that.
