    Why would you see that? It was obvious it was going to be awful from the start, wasn't it?

    Dunno if its anybody's taste around here, but the new Woody Allen film Blue Jasmine was one of his best in years.

    yep I guess! I dunno, I thought it was going to be more serious and true to the real story - but ended up turning it off about half-way through! Just seemed rushed and poorly edited

    Baby Limits suck, but:

    Breaking Bad - Will Saul perish during the Season?

    Book Manager's decision is final.
    8:00p
    Yes
    +150
    No
    -200







    No feels like a sure thing to me here. There is nothing in the show putting him in immediate danger, outside of some chance he goes snitch and Walter does him in himself.

    But, more importantly, the Better Call Saul spinoff is currently in development, and although it is supposed to be a prequel to Breaking Bad, it seems like a strange business model to kill off a character that you're planning on building up in the near future.

    Huge Woody Allen film fan. Thanks for the recommendation. Just recently saw "Only God Forgives" by Nicolas Winding Refn. Glad I decided to watch it.

    I liked it a lot too. Wife hated it.

    Read an interview with Refn the other day, turns out he's colorblind. Wife wasn't surprised.

    Do not worry true believers, work is being done on the Emmy lines as we speak!

    Plays will be released once 5d opens lines (so I can hit em before I give em to you).

    My attorney and I predict lots of value this evening.

    Haven't forgotten about Emmys.

    5Dimes put the lines up for about 5 minutes a few hours ago and then pulled them completely. If they're not back up by 7:30 I'll post my picks so you can hit them at some other sites.

    My attorney has spoken to their attorney. Apparently they are afraid of rereleasing the lines lest the entire posse drop $50 max bet bombs all at once. The results would be devastating.

    So, here's what I like so that you can get it at other books:

    Best Comedy Actress:
    Amy Poehler +1000
    Tina Fey +600

    My plan was to bet on NOT Julia Louise Dreyfuss here at + money, however 5d has robbed us of that opportunity. These are the two with the best chances, IMO.

    Best Comedy Actor:
    Jason Bateman +2500
    Jim Parsons +400

    Don't think Louie should be the favorite here at all. Would've loved a not Louie play, but again not offered. Think this Bateman line is all out of whack, shouldn't be worse than +400 IMO. Arrested Development was a critical darling that received lots of hype, has won several Emmys on its previous run. All the other contenders have won before. Going hard on this one.

    Best Drama Actor:
    Bryan Cranston -140
    Kevin Spacey +500

    Cranston an obvious favorite, but may be overpriced at a lot of books. Remember this is the Emmys for the past season not the current. My attorney has advised me that Spacey is a very strong value play.

    Best Comedy:
    Modern Family -200

    Deserves to be a solid favorite here. Has won several times in the past, the other nominated shows divide the 'smart' vote, and mediocrity will shine through.

    Best Drama:
    House of Cards +1250

    Breaking Bad should be the favorite here, but the rumor is that the big Emmy push for BB will be next year for the current amazing season of the show. Would not be surprised to see any of the contenders win here.

    Lot of big dogs here, so could easily have a losing night. Could be a monster too.

    Emmys much tougher to predict than Oscars.

    Newbie question here: Do relationship with networks ie Netflix and the people that chose the awards have any effect?

    Not sure. I do know that the number of people who vote on the Emmys is huge, and that Television Executives make up the largest individual chunks.

    My thoughts are from a marketing perspective: If the voters are shareholders of Netflix and want free public attention then voting for a show like Hosue of Cards would make sense to get it over. However, I do not know if there is a correlation with the voters and shows, networks, execs, etc.

    i'll just add that i'm taking a shot on kerry washington for best drama actress. most likely will go to claire danes in a repeat, but i think theres a decent chance for an upset here.

    Ahh, forgot a category:

    Best Drama Actress:
    Elizabeth Moss +3800

    As Pun said, Danes and Washington are the two likely front runners, and I have plays on both of them at prices that are no longer available. But Moss at +3800 deserves a look, she's never won previously although she's deserved it many times. Certainly better than a 3% shot.

    No plays on Supporting Actor, although I think Pun had some he liked.
