Adam McKay - The Big Short |

Again the obvious place to reward |

Drew Goddard - The Martian |
|
The Martian could also win here but the lack of a director nod has to have Goddard worried. Still, the book is beloved. |

Phyllis Nagy - Carol |
|
Carol made it in despite Carol missing for Picture and Director, so it's got to be a distant third (and maybe last) to the Best Picture nominees. |

Emma Donoghue - Room |
|
I was glad to call the Room screenplay--the movie clearly had a surge that didn't die from Toronto. |

Nick Hornby - Brooklyn |

This was a pleasant surprise but is likely along for the ride. |
