Bella Ramsey to me looks like Down syndrome just sprinkled a bit on her while she was a fetus.
Her acting wasn't horrible but they could've cast better.

I don’t know if it’s because I’ve played the game first which is why I’m biased but I’m not like blown away by it like the Emmy. It’s definitely a good show though, that I admit.
It must have been a different experience with fresh eyes.

Bella’s nom is catching heat:

It’s kind of silly to separate for gender in acting. It’s art! Theres no distinct advantage other than writing bias… maybe… Or better male roles written… maybe - but that’s already changed too
We already have male painters competing against female painters! A male screenwriter can compete against a female screenwriter etc etc
We have males competing against females in beauty pageants and males competing against females in sports, but we separate them for art?? Makes no sense

Exactly my point
I’m just pointing out the hypocrisy of Hollywood- the same Hollywood who embraces this nonsense.
One minute Hollywood calls Bella a “they”, but now Bella is a “she”
Bella wore a binder all through filming TLOU just to purposely NOT be a “female” (even though binding your tits doesn’t make you NOT a girl). I’m just pointing out how ridiculous Hollywood and all this nonsense is
Born with female parts? You’re a girl
Born with male parts? You’re a dude
No third or seventh option.
(Shhhhh, don’t tell Hollywood)

She wore it to look younger. She was 19 and she was playing 14 year old.

That’s one way to look at it.
I’m sure that’s half the reason.

I don't think there is any other reason. Small Part 2 spoiler:
Ellie is 19 in the sequel so they probably won't be doing it anymore.

I know, I know.
But I found this, the tweet that went viral, and now wonder why the binder was mentioned

Nah she was the best part

Agreed. I thought she was even better than Pedro Pascal.

What? Her acting skills amount to yelling and talking loudly. No emotion, no depth. Reminds me of kids school plays.

She also looks like Rocky Dennis.

I couldn't disagree with you more. She had a lot of emotion and depth. I liked that she was very expressive and you could really tell what she was feeling in each scene. Many criticized her when she was cast but it switched to mostly positive comments after the series aired.

we do this because almost all the good parts are still written for men. women will almost never win acting awards if these acting awards werent segregatedBella’s nom is catching heat:

Best director, best writer, best cinematographer, best editor awards are not segregated by gender.
this is just to ensure that we can have hot chicks show up award shows and get some awards.

This gets released on 4K/Blu-Ray on Monday. I pre-ordered the standard version because I like that cover more than steebook.

Nice, well deserved all around. Bella was extraordinary and it's no coincidence that people who hated her performance also just happen to be the type who are constantly obsessively paranoid about "wokeness."
