WGA Nominations

It’s important to remember that many of the film’s most lauded screenplays were NOT ELIGIBLE for this prize. Thus, Oscar could make radical changes to this lineup. It’s important to remember that when making your predictions. However, this is great news for Avatar and Star Trek. Jim Cameron may once again be King of the World.
