It was the relative upstarts in awards-worthy original programming that emerged as contenders in the series categories this year. Unfortunately, because the two shows are in all the same categories, the maximum awards Amazon could win would be three .
Quentin Tarantino has previously stated that he didn’t want a few star names for The Hateful Eight, but rather an ensemble of similar star power and respect. Along the way his driver is halted by the presence of fellow bounty hunter Major Marquis Warren (Samuel L. Jackson) who pleads for a ride.
