2015 Writers Guild Awards Nominations Announced

The nominees for the 2015 Writers Guild of America awards have been announced. The collection of candidates for this year is pretty interesting, even though some of the top movies like "Selma", "Birdman" and "The Theory of Everything" were ineligible. We have some surprises, like "Nightcrawler" and "Guardians of the Galaxy", as well as some expected nominees which include "Boyhood", "Gone Girl", "The Imitation Game" and "The Grand Budapest Hotel". The WGA winners will be announced on February 14th.

2015 Producers Guild Nominees Announced

The nominees for the Producers Guild Awards have been announced. The contenders for the Darryl F. Zanuck Award for feature film are "American Sniper", "Birdman", "Foxcatcher", "Gone Girl", "Grand Budapest Hotel", "The Imitation Game", "Nightcrawler", "The Theory of Everything" and "Whiplash". Most films were expected candidates, with possibly just "Nightcrawler" being something of a surprise, but the PGA's top 10 also shut out some other surefire candidates like "Selma", "Into the Woods" or "A Most Violent Year". The PGAs are usually a strong indicator for the Oscars, so whoever wins here will probably go on to win Best Picture at the Academy Awards as well.

In the television category, the PGA nominated some usual suspects like "American Horror Story: Freak Show", "Sherlock", "Game of Thrones", "Breaking Bad", "Modern Family" and "Downton Abbey", but also new additions like "True Detective" and "Fargo".

The 26th annual Producers Guild Awards will be held on January 24th in Los Angeles.

NIGHTCRAWLER Red Band Trailer and Clip
