This link is still being updated but it is almost complete.

I think a lot of these were expected at least for movies.

The GGs continue to baffle me. When I first saw the list the nomination of Charlize Theron for _Tully_ in the category of “Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy” just baffled me. Have they seen this movie?

Then looking at the list again I noticed Elsie Fisher for _Eighth Grade_ in the same category. What is going on here?

Looking at Wikipedia pages for these films says they are comedy-dramas, but no way. _Tully_ did have one good funny line. But that’s basically it.

Both films are serious downers.
