Atonement will most likely get the nod because people have heard of it and Keira Knightley on the red carpet will guarantee a few extra viewers. (Not really a guess with a lot of thought behind it, but there you go.)EegahInchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13055947542189758831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21082552.post-32311437835093454022008-01-11T11:54:00.000-07:002008-01-11T11:54:00.000-07:00With regards to Ratatouille, I don't think it was ...With regards to Ratatouille, I don't think it was eligible where the WGA is concerned.

I'm thinking Juno won't make it (I don't have a a great reason), The Diving Bell surely won't (too few people have seen it) and though American Gangster might, I think it will get passed by Atonement (Gangster makes for a good showcase for the two actors, and it's good, but it was a pretty plain film). I think there's an outside chance of The Savages making it, and an even slighter one of Before the Devil Knows You're Dead making it.<BR/><BR/>I think Sweeney Todd will get shut out of the major awards, but will do well in the effects/costuming/set design categories.Fletchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17299302086449086987noreply@blogger.com
