Diablo Cody and Coen Brothers Top WGA Awards

Strike is coming to an end and the happiness continues

While the strike isn’t technically over as we still have to wait and get the vote from the WGA members, but pretty much everyone agrees it is going to be business as normal come Monday morning. Of course this also means the Oscars will most likely go forward without interruption and speaking of awards the WGA has a set of their own, which were just announced.

Below are the top results for the Film and Television Award Winners which includes an original screenplay win for Juno scripter Diablo Cody and an adapted screenplay win for the Coen brothers for their adaptation of Cormac McCarthy’s No Country for Old Men.
