The Writers Guild has announced its screenwriting nominees and there aren't really any big surprises, since we knew Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood would be absent given the fact that Tarantino isn't a member of the guild. Tarantino won the Golden Globe last night for Once Upon a Time, which will compete in the original screenplay category at the Oscars. Keep that in mind as you review the nominees below. In the original screenplay category, heavyweights like Marriage Story and Parasite will go head-to-head with Booksmart, Knives Out, and 1917, which was …

WB's death row drama Just Mercy, Bong Joon-ho's critical sensation Parasite and Olivia Wilde's teen comedy Booksmart have been added to Collider’s FYC Screening Series at ArcLight Hollywood. On Sunday, Dec. 22 -- yes, just two days from now -- For Your Consideration host Scott Mantz will lead a Q&A with Just Mercy stars Michael B.

Recently, Olivia Wilde and the cast of Booksmart shared some understandably irritated and confused responses to reports that Delta Airlines was showing an edited version of the film on their flights that cut a same-sex kiss and even deleted the word “lesbian.” Wilde and her Booksmart stars Kaitlyn Dever and Beanie Feldstein pointed out that it was strange to delete references to female sexuality in their film, while leaving bloody violence in other in-flight movies relatively intact.

The Booksmart director and stars are done playing by some airlines' censorship book.
We’ve all had this experience: You’re on a plane, scrolling through the movies available to watch. You choose an R-rated one. And you scoff and smirk at the insane ways they censor any objectionable content in case the person stuffed in the tiny seat next to you doesn’t want to see someone get their brains blown off or say the F word. Olivia Wilde’s directorial debut, Booksmart, recently hit the “can watch on a plane now” circuit. It’s a hard-R comedy about two teens going through one crazy night. It makes sense that …
