Writers Guild of American Nominations

BEST ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY
Burn After Reading- Ethan Coen & Joel Coen
Milk- Dustin Lance Black
Vicky Cristina Barcelona- Woody Allen
The Visitor- Thomas McCarthy
The Wrestler- Robert Siegel

BEST ADAPTED SCREENPLAY
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button- Eric Roth & Robin Swicord
The Dark Knight- Christopher Nolan & Jonathon Nolan
Doubt- John Patrick Shanley
Frost/Nixon- Peter Morgan
Slumdog Millionaire- Simon Beaufoy

Mostly solid mix, however the jarring omission of Rachel Getting Married doesn't settle well-- especially for Burn After Reading? Nice work, The Dark Knight-- I believe you've found Oscar credibility.
