Sinkie Award for Best Adapted Screenplay

The Sinkie Award for Best Adapted Screenplay is an award presented annually by the Everything But the Kitchen Sink podcast since the awards debuted in 2018. The award honors the best screenplay based on previously published work. Seven scripts are nominated every year for this award. There have been 49 films nominated for this award, and seven winners.
The screenwriters with the most nominations in this category are Greta Gerwig, Michael Green, and Eric Roth, with two apiece. Green is also the only individual to date to be nominated twice in the same category in the same year in one of the main categories (Director, Acting, Screenplays).
==Correlation to the Academy Awards==
The Sinkie Awards have a mixed correlation with the Academy Awards in this category. Of the 49 films nominated for the Sinkie for Best Adapted Screenplay, 23 were also nominated for the Oscar. Of the seven Sinkie Best Adapted Screenplay winners thus far, only one has gone on to win the Oscar as well: Women Talking. Three Sinkie winners in this category have won without also being nominated at the Oscars: Paddington 2, West Side Story, and Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret. In the brief history of the Sinkies, one Oscar winner for Best Adapted Screenplay has won and missed a Sinkie nod: American Fiction.
==Winners and nominees==
In the list below, winners are listed first, bolded with asterisks around them, followed by the other nominees. The year shown is the one in which the film premiered - the year of release. This is also the year before the ceremony at which the award is given; for example, a film exhibited thetrically during 2021 was eligible for consideration for the 2021 Best Adapted Screenplay Sinkie, awarded in 2022. The number of the ceremony (1st, 2nd, etc.) appears in parentheses after the awards year, linked to the article on that ceremony.
