I thought the Batman was pretty good, but I liked this excellent show a lot better.

Much deserved. I didn't care much for 'the Batman' but I'm looking forward to the sequel because fo the Penguin mini series.

But what we got instead was a stroke of genius.

Glad to see Jodie Foster won, True Detective: Night Country was one of my favorite miniseries last year.

If they do go with a 2nd Season then Cristin Milioti should get the gold home this time.

You had to spoil it in literally the headline title for those who haven't watched yet and aren't crazy about being 24/7 on social media?

Anyway, well deserving to Collin for his acting! 👌👍

Just like I hope Homelander gives you a well deserving spanking for this spoiling headline 🤨

@Malatrova15 - REALLY???

Looking at the Rotten Tomatoes score...

Emelia Perez has a 76% Critic and 66% Audience score!

Dune 2, has a 92% Critic and 95% Audience score!

It looks like highway robbery to me!
Malatrova15
Malatrova15 - 1/6/2025, 12:25 PM
@Forthas - its just justice and common sense....Duje is jist another white man fantasy flick...Emilia Perez is cinema about human experience.

I'll never understand how something like The Bear is in the musical/comedy category and not in drama.

As for Farrell, well deserved. I don't think Foster was that outstanding in True Detective, while Milioti was in The Penguin. Also, Jesse Eisenberg wrote a screenplay!?

Jodie Foster losing to someone from a comic book role, would've been pretty sweet.🤣

Congrats to Colin Farrell , he did a fantastic job as “Oz Cobb” so it’s a well deserved win imo!!

User Comment Image

Also great to see Sebastian Stan win even if that genre isn’t entirely accurate for that film (it is somewhat of a dark comedy) but why is Hugh Grant nominated in that when Heretic was a horror film?.
ModHaterSLADE
ModHaterSLADE - 1/6/2025, 6:42 AM
Always nice to see Shogun win, but I'm also gold Farrell got the W. It truly is impressive how much he transformed for the role while giving us one of the best comic villain portrays ever.
Mugens
Mugens - 1/6/2025, 6:52 AM
True Detective was decent enough for me to come back and watch each episode, but Cristin was definitely robbed. As much as I like and respect Ms. Foster, the award should have gone to Milioti and not just because it was a comic related property. She was damn good period.

Well earned. Colin nailed that role, making the Penguin so much better than it had any right to be. Congrats.

BillyBatson1000 - 1/6/2025, 7:20 AM
Jodie is an outstanding actress but 'TD: Night Country' was a poor use of her talents. There were far too many episodes hitting the same, dull, repetitive beats; the material stretched too thinly. The final part tied everything together adequately but it would have landed better with a shorter run time.

ObserverIO - 1/6/2025, 7:38 AM
Cristin Milioti was robbed. We already know all the other actresses in her category are all time greats, but she was definitely the stand out, imo.

I loved the first 2 seasons of True Detective. Third one was okay. But this last one was so shit. it was so shit that they took pity on the viewers and made it only 6 episodes.

Way to go Demi Moore. But The Substance as a Comedy/Musical?
