Awards -- Writers Guild of America (WGA)

This year is such a crap shoot, with all the scripts that were ineligible. That list includes Winter's Bone, The King's Speech, The Ghost Writer, Four Lions, Toy Story 3, Another Year, and Blue Valentine, most of which have at least a decent chance of getting nominated at the Oscars. But with that said, the nominees for the WGA this year are...
