Minus Booksmart and ABDITN, that looks like the BP slate.

OUATIH will take the Booksmart slot, since it wasn't eligible here.

Why was OUATIH not eligible here?

QT isn't a member of the WGA.

Thanks for the info. I didn't know that was a criteria for movies to be selected for this guild. That's a BIG handicap.

Tarantino is not a member of the WGA which dates back to a feud he had when writing Natural Born Killers

Neither Shape of Water or Green Book were nominated for SAG ensemble and both went on to win Best Picture.

That tells me 1917 could still win.

Parasite won Original. Jojo Rabbit won Adapted.

Insane that Little Women didn't win.

I haven't seen Little Women yet but have heard good things about its structure.

I saw Jojo Rabbit and thought it was goofy and a little contrived.

Post subject:  Re: WGA Awards 2020

I would give a slight edge to Little Women I think but honestly that and Jojo are such a toss-up for me. Both excellent. I'm happy with either getting Adapted. Was cool to see Jojo win here. I do think LW will still win the Oscar though. Gerwig might get an added push too because of not being nominated for Director. If it's not LW it's Jojo.

Parasite was nominated at all 4. That worked out after all.
