Producers Guild Award Nominations Announced Today

The nominees for the Producers Guild Awards have been announced.

The PGA nominations and winners are basically a guide map of the movies that will end up being nominated for and Oscar at the Academy Awards. Last year 9 out of 10 films nominated for the PGA ended up being nominated for Best Picture at the Academy Awards. 

I am very happy to see The Town on there, it is one of my favorite films of 2010. I know a lot of people loved Toy Story 3, but I don’t think it’s a best picture film. I think that Winters Bone should be on the list as well, it was a deserving film.
