Popular Starbucks Mugs, Unsealed Jeffrey Epstein Documents, Rage Against The Machine Breaks Up, Non-Fornicating Flowers, and The 'Barbie' Movie's Screenplay Category Switch
The Barbie thing was obviously an award gambit made by the producers and not the writers of the movie. If the Guild indicated it was an original script the Academy should have let it stand as that. The Adapted Screenplay category typically only involves adaptations "from another medium" (as the wording of the category used to say), and they must be counting "toys" as "another medium".

Petition to be able to choose more than one!
