The Syndicate

RIP Jack

I figured it was too late.

Gemini Man was so terrible.

Well shit, then what did I draft ScarJo for?

well yeah that's the joke

literally seven of us are undefeated in that round :P

I am undefeated in the box office round.

I’ll resist the temptation to be a jerk and snag Leslie Odom Jr right now.

To be absolutely clear: I am not making this swap.

I considered swapping Women of Marwen for Bohemian Rhapsody, but those ugly reviews keep pouring in.

Probably a good move. Dropping meaningless box office for greater awards potential.

I’m really not that into transactions either. I just like to pounce if I think someone else made a mistake in this thread.

Also I might be screwed if Beale Street doesn't release on time. That's still uncertain.

Utter ruthlessness.

To be fair, it's left me quite reliant upon First Man (and with crap box office offsets, but I don't think that matters at this point). Oh well though, because Joel Edgerton was pretty much an "I have to make a pick in the next two minutes; I have no clue; here's a person's name; have a go at it Joel" pick.

Drop Joel Edgerton, add Claire Foy

Just going to do this again in reverse.

I saw a preview for TDM and can finally confirm that it is an actual movie and not some random shit I found on Google.

Shitty teen-fiction moneybrab will do.

If the late release holds I'll grab some other damn thing.

I think it's fine the way it is, and indeed it's better than the alternative.

This functions pretty much just like any sports fantasy league.

Nobody is going to draft Joe Schmo of the Tennessee Titans, but if he comes out in Week 2 and puts up 30 points, people might think he's worth grabbing as a free agent. Granted in those cases there's a waiver wire system, but that's not the fault of these rules. The first person to pull the trigger is the one who gets the spoils -- if there even are any (not remotely guaranteed).

Filling my two vacant spots:

Pablo Schreiber
Kristen Wiig

Drop at Eternity's Gate

Take BlacKkKlansman
