JackO Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 So over this Girls hype. But I am glad for Veep, Zooey D, Louie, and Larry. And Homeland and Breaking Bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted July 23, 2012 Author Share Posted July 23, 2012 I think he'll win again either way. He was even better this year than last.He didn't submit his best episode though. And the competition in that category is much tougher this year than it was last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I;m glad they didn't put Dinklage as lead actor. I prefer this to be an ensemble supporting cast. No leads.Except that goes against the reality of the story. While the cast of characters is huge, there are clearly defined leading characters and Tyrion is one of them.

Cedarpoint1111 Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Except that goes against the reality of the story. While the cast of characters is huge, there are clearly defined leading characters and Tyrion is one of them.This is true, but there roles aren't much bigger than a lot of the actual supporting cast. I don't think 5 minutes of screen time per episode deserves leading status whether they are central to the story or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted July 23, 2012 Author Share Posted July 23, 2012 (edited) Announced that the episode submission for Giancarlo Esposito is Hermanos and for Jared Harris it's Comissions and Fees. Either of them could win with those. Tough race. Edited July 23, 2012 by CoolioD1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 So Dinklage submitted Episode 3 for his Emmy bid. That's the episode where he plays his trick on Pycelle, Varys, and Littlefinger so it was a good pick (but still no Blackwater).http://www.westeros.org/GoT/News/Entry/Game_of_Thrones_Episode_Submissions/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted July 23, 2012 Author Share Posted July 23, 2012 Like I said, I doubt he wins for that one. Giancarlo submitted an episode that gives a sympathetic backstory to his usually villainous character (and barely has Aaron Paul in it) and the episode Jared Harris submitted was an emotional rollercoaster for him. Dinklage definitely would've been in contention if he submitted Blackwater. Shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Supporting actor is a stacked fucking category. What episode did Paul submit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted July 23, 2012 Author Share Posted July 23, 2012 Supporting actor is a stacked fucking category. What episode did Paul submit?Hasn't been announced yet, but I saw an interview with him at Gold Derby where he said he wanted to go for Problem Dog. AMC might think differently but I think that's a good one to go with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted July 23, 2012 Author Share Posted July 23, 2012 Damien Lewis's submission was REALLY good. As much as I love Cranston, I would love to see Lewis take lead actor. I've been a big fan of his since I saw BoB, and he's so great on Homeland. It's a shame he's been overshadowed by Claire Danes' showier role on that show.

That's much, much better. Very much better. I'd probably rank What is Dead May Never Die (Episode 3) second-best of Season 2 after Blackwater. The Iron Islands scenes in that episode were just amazing, particularly this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Lack of appreciation for GoT actors save The Dink is embarrassing. Emmy`s just proved they are insufferable star-fuckers like HFPA. Always nominating the same people and how the fuck Uma Thurman got a nod for her awful turn in abominable Smash? At least that overhyped shitfest didn`t get any major nomination. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cedarpoint1111 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I was pretty surprised at Uma's nod as well. I don't know if its not deserved, but its definitely surprising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
