 Re: WGA Nominations
Straight Outta Compton seems to be quite strong.

 Re: WGA Nominations
Anything that was eligible, but surprisingly missed?

 Re: WGA Nominations
Spotlight, The Big Short and Straight Outta Compton are the films to have SAG + PGA + WGA.
The only movie in recent years to get all of those guilds but miss a Best Picture nom was Bridesmaids (ugh, still bitter).

 Re: WGA Nominations
Would have liked to see Ex Machina here. Also I was having a mini 'wtf' moment not seeing Inside Out here but apparently it's not eligible.

 Re: WGA Nominations
WGA are rendered somewhat meaningless by the long list of ineligible films year after year, especially those that ultimately go on to win at the Oscars.

 Re: WGA Nominations
Predictably, The Big Short and Spotlight won their respective categories.
