“They should make Game Of Thrones into a TV show.”
This year’s ARIA Awards might not have dominated the ratings, but they definitely saw Twitter light up. Their shiny new ARIA emoji was in good company alongside a sea of social commentary on the new Game Of Thrones poster, the Captain America: Civil War trailer and Donald Trump's latest outburst.
It’s somewhat mystifying to me that we get a tour announcement from 5SOS televised but urban/comedy/country awards not. #ARIAs

I had no idea a comedy aria was a thing comedians aspire to or that Matt Okine was a feministette. I have my period. #ARIAs

In closing: I hope Courtney Barnett, Gang of Youths and Flight Facilities win everything all The Voice and X-Factor contestants lose. #ARIAs

Good luck to all #ARIAs nominees at Star Casino today! Also to the gambling addicts ruining their lives for others' profit in the next room.

#ARIAs... where they don't even televise the award for the bands that sell more tickets and albums and merch than any of the rest.

The trailer and poster for Captain America: Civil War also dropped, pitting the superhero soldier played by Chris Evans against fan favourite Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr), forcing fans to choose sides. Maybe comparing their Twitter habits will help you choose a side.
