The Writers Guild of America (WGA) nominations announcement is always an interesting bend in the Oscar road if only because of the various awards season players that find themselves ineligible. “Selma,” “Mr. Turner” and “The Theory of Everything” were among the non-signatory DQs this year, as was “Birdman” – a fact I cop to completely missing somehow when I first wrote about the scripts that would not be competing this year. (*facepalm*) Those gaps are a beautiful thing for fringe players looking for a foothold, however.

Another intriguing twist (boy did the writers keep it exciting this year) is the revelation that the Academy has ruled Damien Chazelle's “Whiplash” an adapted screenplay, where the WGA considers it original. So it's nomination in that category with the guild will obviously leave a hole in the Academy's original race.

With the day's guild mentions complete, we're left with “The Grand Budapest Hotel” and “The Imitation Game” as the only films to be chalked up across the board. And seeing as the casting directors now have their own Academy branch, I should probably include the Casting Society of America in all of this. If so, then Wes Anderson's critically acclaimed box office hit is the one film to have been cited by each industry group so far.

Check out the full list of nominees below. Previously announced, the television nominees are here. And keep up with what else has happened so far this season at The Circuit.
