The Descendants, Bridesmaids, Midnight in Paris and other fan favorites lead the way in the just-released Writers Guild of America Awards, honoring the best of 2011.
The biggest surprise may be the inclusion of the independent drama Win Win, while the big snubs appear to be War Horse, The Ides of March and The Artist.
Diablo Cody (Young Adult), Alexander Payne (The Descendants) and Steven Zaillian (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) were among the scribes recognized.
Other nominees range from Kristen Wiig and Woody Allen to Will Reiser, Seth Rogen's friend who adapted his own battle with cancer into a hit dramedy.
