Deadpool and wolverine was a comedy?

MarkCassidy - 2/8/2025, 10:49 AM

@AllsNotGood - Yes.

ObserverIO - 2/8/2025, 10:48 AM

Now these are some real awards.

Milioti's turn in The Penguin deserves more recognition.

Still haven't seen Anora yet, is it really that good? It's even nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars. I may have to check this out.

TheVisionary25 - 2/8/2025, 10:56 AM

Great to continue seeing Colin Farrell sweep up his awards category this season but even better to have Cristin Milioti join him for this one , both well deserved!!.

Her reaction to winning was truly great…

?si=P5dT6CX39O_CRZk6

Congrats to X-Men 97 and the other winners aswell…

I haven’t seen Wicked yet but I’m sure that Jon M Chu win won’t be controversial in the slightest lol.

DocSpock - 2/8/2025, 11:29 AM

Some well-deserved awards here. Especially from the excellent Penguin show.

DocSpock - 2/8/2025, 11:30 AM

The Penguin >>>>>>>>>>>>>> the Batman.

Izaizaiza - 2/8/2025, 11:39 AM

@DocSpock - I got to get back into the penguin. I loved the first episode, but my wife wasn't into it, so we switched to other shows.

DocSpock - 2/8/2025, 11:50 AM

@Izaizaiza -

It just got better and better in my opinion. I was very surprised how good it was after being disappointed badly by most of the MCU D+ shows.

Izaizaiza - 2/8/2025, 12:01 PM

@DocSpock - Yeah, that first episode seemed to be on another level. I actually think that most of the Disney plus Marvel shows were decent (not great).

The only ones I thought truly sucked were what if and Loki. Loki, not because of the production value or anything, but because I hated the story.

DocSpock - 2/8/2025, 12:13 PM

@Izaizaiza -

Yeah, I have been badly disappointed by most of them. Especially the ones that are tainted with unneeded liberal/conservative political message garbage.

The only ones I have really liked a lot were Hawkeye and most of WandVision.

Good to see X-Men '97 continue to get it's flowers. The Penguin was excellent and definitely deserves every award it can obtain.

bobevanz - 2/8/2025, 12:00 PM

A Real Pain TYING with that one note nostalgia bait is ridiculous. X-men '97 is the best MCU project ever, maybe right behind Infinity War. Luckily season two will still have episodes written by Beau, season 3 is doomed either way
