The guild announced its nominations for best original screenplay and best adapted screenplay, and predictably, "Boyhood" and "Gone Girl" feature in those categories, respectively.
Joining Richard Linklater in original screenplay competition is Wes Anderson for "The Grand Budapest Hotel" and Damien Chazelle for "Whiplash." Interestingly, "Whiplash" is classified as an adapted screenplay by the Academy Awards.
In the adaptation category, Gillian Flynn faces off against Jason Hall for "American Sniper" and Nick Hornby for "Wild."
Some notable snubs include Oscar frontrunners like "Birdman" and "Selma," which were not eligible for Writers Guild honors. Here is the complete list of nominees:
