Just looked now and holy shit! Considering the Oscars tho if there is a good white guy they'll probably eat this up. I hope not though.

it's so weird how much that hashtag is filled with people who haven't seen the movie but just a poorly cut trailer. shows the importance of trailers

Side note: op, is it still considered EGOT if they won it for a daytime Emmy?

[funhouse]

Yes
