PGA & WGA Predix

They announce Tuesday, kicking off 2011.

WGA:
As usual, numerous screenplays have been ruled ineligible. They include: Winter's Bone, The King's Speech, Toy Story 3 and Another Year.

Adapted Screenplay:
127 Hours - Rabbit Hole - The Social Network - The Town - True Grit
Alt: Shutter Island
This is the five everyone is predicting. Outside of Island, there really is no other alternative.

Original Screenplay:
Black Swan - The Fighter - Inception - The Kids Are All Right - Please Give
Alt: Greenberg
I'd say the first four are locked. The last spot will probably go to an indie (the aforementioned two, Get Low or Somewhere), or even Easy A. I went with the very deserving Holofcener because she deserves it.


PGA:
The question is how closely will these resemble Oscar's ten. Last year, they were only one off - PGA nominated Star Trek while the Oscar's chose The Blind Side. Looking back, its very surprising The Blind Side didn't show up here given how huge a success it was.

Black Swan
The Fighter
Inception
The Kids Are All Right
The King's Speech
The Social Network
The Town
Toy Story 3
True Grit
Winter's Bone

Alt - 127 Hours

Though given these are producers, blockbusters like Harry Potter 7, Shutter Island or How To Train Your Dragon could be in the running.
