Somebody call Skimbleshanks because the awards-season train has officially left the station. Keeping things chugging along after the Golden Globes on Sunday, the Producers Guild Association has released its list of nominated films and television series. The PGA Awards have long been one of the most reliable guild awards for predicting the Academy Awards Best Picture, having named 21 of the past 30 winners. The PGA will announce the winners at a Hollywood Palladium ceremony on January 18. Below are the nominees, though some specific producers have yet to be identified. Adjust your ballots accordingly.
