Members Adam Posted January 11, 2010 Members Share Posted January 11, 2010 Tarantino is not a member of the WGA. He isn't a member of the DGA either, but they still nominated him. I don't really put much stock in the guilds beyond the SAG and this just gives me even more reason too. There are alot of people saying today that the WGA nod to Avatar "legitimizes" the so called weak script it had. Yeah, sorry no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Toups Posted January 13, 2010 Administrator Share Posted January 13, 2010 Damn, that's too bad about QT. Some parts of IB were brilliant (the beginning with COL. Hans Landa, the pub scene, the ending which had the coolest scene - "the giant face" LOL). As far Avatar, I guess we non-writers are in the minority. Happy for my boys, Orci & Kurtzman!

Members Sylph Posted January 13, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 13, 2010 But they won't win. I think the Coen's will take the Original Screenplay. And Quentin is a very good writer, but he needs to be reigned in: IB was a bloated and needed to be trimmed down. I wonder why he doesn't do guilds.
