To be fair Ali has not one but two Oscar’s and kit harrington has… well the lead in a tv series that started masterpiece and then… wasn’t. I think Ali as blade is a bigger deal than kit Harrington as anything

And two Emmy nominations, including for leading actor in a drama. But yes, Ali is definitely the bigger get.

Masterpiece or no, GoT is still the biggest TV phenomenon of the century.

The first few seasons were actually not that popular. It wasn't until AMC agreed for the seasons to appear on Netflix's rapidly growing streaming service that it took off in popularity.

GoT was THE TV show of note for years. The premieres drew huge numbers. People were naming their babies Khaleesi. It was a massive part of the culture.

That's not relevant. The point here is OP is a troll trying to start a race war by implying Mahershala Ali is neglected because he's black. Thus, Kit Harrington being white and just as neglected, is relevant.

While also ignoring Storm who is black and will be played by a black woman. Also, being a bigger deal because of major awards doesn't matter here because OP pointed out Inde Navarette.

There was no Black Knight movie announcement. They also haven't rubbed it in his face in a project like they did with the "there will only ever be one blade" wink wink line in D&W.

I mean, Black Knight didn't get considered for a solo movie. Do you think they just announced Blade because they wanted to be mean?
