This is off topic, but that "genderless" award that Emma won at the MTV movie and TV awards was just stupid. This is what they mean about PC being out of control. The whole point of having two different categories is so that both male and female actors are represented, and each gender takes home an award. This is exclusionary, limiting the number of winners. And there are also roles that are gender specific. A man can't very well play Joan of Arc or Blanche du Bois, and a woman can't play Abraham Lincoln or Stanley Kowalski. Has MTV finally gone completely mental?

It just annoys me that Emma won an award for that stupid Beauty and the Beast crap.

Well, can I just say that if Emma is gonna win for B&B, they should've given Hugh an award for Logan. After all, the Oscars increase their nominees for Best Picture from 5 movies to 10, but MTV lowers their winners from two each to just one?

Well Emma shouldn't have won for B&B anyway. Stupid film, overrated actress. She's one of the Harry Potter trio. Those three will never come across like they've grown up.

I think Emma has potential. I just didn't think a live action B&B remake was necessary.

Hugh and Jerry Seinfeld should play Vegas together.
