WGA Nominations

A few thoughts: Avatar must have a lot of support considering that most people felt that the weakest part of the movie was the script. Most of the nominees are the usual suspects. Great to see Julie & Julia and Star Trek get into the adapted race, I hope this means they get some surprise nods come Oscar morning. The Hangover also makes a surprise entry, although for the WGA it's really not that surprising. I still think Hurt Locker and Up in the Air are our winners, but we'll wait and see.
