The Emmy snub

Am I the only one who thinks that Bobby Cannavale's Emmy nomination tonight, is the entertainment industry's way of slapping Michael in the face? There has been speculation that Pitt was fired for being difficult on set so it makes me wonder if the industry nominating Cannavale for his cartoon like performance is their way of giving Pitt the finger.

Pitt's acting in season 2 of B.E. was unforgettable, whereas Cannavale made me want to forget him entirely in season 3. I just don't understand why he was nominated...I could have acted like Gyp Rosetti.

Yeah it does seem that way. I wasn't a huge Gyp fan either. Chalky White and Richard Harrow are way more interesting. Cannavale was probably only nominated cause his character died, you know.

That's possible too, being nominated because Rosetti died. I wonder when Jack Huston (the actor who plays Richard Harrow) is going to be nominated? He should have been for this year. I'm hoping that either he, Michael K. Williams or Jeffrey Wright will be awarded the next time around.

BTW salt-and-limes did you ever get my message on the other thread that asked what's up with his new movies? You never replied.

Oh yes, I read it. I'm sorry that I didn't respond. I agreed with everything wrote in that.
