Drive got an Emmy nom for visual effects (in the category Miniseries, Movie, or Special). Ookay.
Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Firefly got nominated for the same thing in 2002, and won. Same company, too.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
That's terribly amusing. It'll probably win, too.

Well, those were pretty awesome effects.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
I'm surprised they used 'The Starting Line' to submit -- I thought it was fairly weak VFX wise. There's a chase in the second or third episode where the camera flies through cars with glorious abandon which I remember being particularly cool.

It feels like they traditionally submit pilots for some reason. Which is really odd, because those are rarely the best episode. But I guess they're the best episodes to view out of context, since the voters haven't necessarily seen the series at all.
