Supporting mounting for The Big Short.


And THE DEPARTED wouldn't have been eligible, as it wasn't adapted from a book...

They are so wrong. The Martian a better screenplay than Carol or Steve Jobs? Amazing. This is driving me mad.

USC Scripters:

"The Big Short"
"Brooklyn"
"The End of the Tour"
"The Martian"
"Room"

Another huge snub for "Carol".
