This morning the first of the major guild awards were announced, the 2011 nominations for 22nd annual Producers Guild Awards. Last year the 10 nominations matched up almost perfectly with the 10 Best Picture nominations with Avatar, District 9, Inglorious Basterds, Up In The Air, An Education, The Hurt Locker, Up, and Precious all making it. The only two differences were Star Trek and Invictus getting PGA nods while A Serious Man and The Blind Side grabbed BP noms.
This year the major snub was Winter’s Bone, but other than that you can bet at least 8 of the below will nab Best Picture noms. Check out the list via Deadline.
