This is an annual event because, unlike other guild competitions including the DGA, SAG, and PGA, the WGA remains firm in its golden rule of eligibility for its top film awards: a film must have been written under a WGA MBA or under a bona fide collective bargaining agreement for many of the international organizations affiliated with the WGA.

However, if you tend to want to vote for likes Black Adam And sonic the hedgehog 2, those scenarios We are on the ballot.
