Entre os roteiristas nenhuma surpresa. Todos os roteiros submetidos à Academia foram considerados elegiveis, fato que vergonhosamente não ocorreu com o Writers Guild of America. Assim, a lista – que inclui 134 roteiros originais e 107 roteiros adaptados – contém todos os frontrunners esperados, tais como O DISCURSO DO REI, MINHAS MÃES E MEU PAI e A ORIGEM entre os originais e A REDE SOCIAL, INVERNO DA ALMA e TOY STORY 3 entre os adaptados. Lembro que O DISCURSO DO REI, INVERNO DA ALMA e TOY STORY 3 entre outros estão inelegiveis ao WGA Awards.
De fato, a maior surpresa – ou curiosidade – seria ROBIN HOOD, filme submetido como Original, mas que foi classificado como Adaptado pela Academia que considera roteiros de personagens pré-existentes como material adaptado. Esse é o caso de TOY STORY 3 também.
Outra curiosidade: A pré-lista de 241 roteiros qualificados do Oscar é quase o triplo da lista do WGA Awards, isso porque o guild fecha sua panelinha de premiação apenas ao pessoal sindicalizado. É uma tentativa de proteção deles, mas que desqualifica completamente a premiação. Ano passado, por exemplo, BASTARDOS INGLÓRIOS ficou de fora…
