The Hollywood guilds wound up their nominations with a blitz of bulletins this week, culminating in Thursday’s slates of nominees from the Producers Guild, Writers Guild, Administrators Guild and American Cinema Editors. And now we are able to compile some statistics from the flicks of 2021 – not the movies which have acquired awards from critics’ teams or the Hollywood Overseas Press Affiliation, however ones which have been acknowledged by the type of movie professionals who may even be voting for the Academy Awards.

(The guild nominations ended, not coincidentally, on the day that Oscar nomination voting started.)

Unsurprisingly, on condition that a lot of the nominations are made by below-the-line guilds, Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi epic “Dune” received essentially the most nominations, 12. It was acknowledged by each one of many teams besides SAG. “West Facet Story” adopted with 9 nominations. “The Energy of the Canine” and “Don’t Look Up” received eight, “Nightmare Alley” received seven and “Belfast” received six.

Two movies, “West Facet Story” and “Licorice Pizza,” have been nominated by all 4 of the foremost guilds – SAG, DGA, PGA and WGA – however neither of them secured the essential SAG ensemble award.
