WGA nominations for best screenplays

#1 Post by Bob Juch » Thu Jan 10, 2008 2:53 pm

"Juno," "Michael Clayton," "The Savages," "Knocked Up" and "Lars and the Real Girl" have received WGA nominations for original screenplay.

"No Country for Old Men," "There Will Be Blood," "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly," "Into the Wild" and "Zodiac" have taken adapted screenplay nods.

Documentary noms went to "The Camden 28," "Nanking," "No End in Sight," "The Rape of Europa," "Sicko" and "Taxi to the Dark Side."

I'll bet that Michael Clayton, No Country for Old Men, and Sicko win.

I guess I will have to rent "Knocked Up" now. I'd heard good things about it, but if it's cleverly enough written that the Guild nominates it, it must be even better than I'd heard.

Juno will win for Best Original Screenplay and the Oscar as well. Diablo Cody is very hot right now in Hollywood.
