Oh, right, this happens every year. I know why they do it (they are the Writers Guild of America at the end of the day, not a simple critical body honoring fine film writing), yet it always annoys me a tad.  Fruitvale Station, Philomena, and particularly 12 Years a Slave are obviously the ones which could have contended if eligible. |

So Best Adapted will be between Captain Phillips and The Wolf of Wall Street, I assume. |

I have a hard time seeing Captain Phillips winning a top writing award. It is such a detail and procedure oriented screenplay. Very journalistic. It is not full of juicy dialogue and flair. I wonder if Before Midnight is eligible. |

I agree. But so was Zero Dark Thirty and it was a bunch of screenplay awards, I think. |
