Oscar Predictions: Best Adapted Screenplay

By Cameron Cubbison · January 28, 2015

The 2015 Adapted Screenplay category will be the toughest to pick from in any category this year. We have nominees that are deserving and some that are not. Not to mention (similar to the Best Original Screenplay category) that the contents of these adaptations are highly diverse.

Find below the Oscar nominations and our predictions.

Nominees

American Sniper, Jason Hall

The Imitation Game, Graham Moore

Inherent Vice, Paul Thomas Anderson

The Theory of Everything, Anthony McCarten

Whiplash, Damien Chazelle

Predictions

Winner: Whiplash

The Potential Dark Horse: The Imitation Game

What We Want to Win: Inherent Vice (for its mastering of its “unadaptable” source material)

Honorable Mention: Gone Girl (it should not have only been nominated, but it should win as well)
