The Syndicate

Spreadsheet updated with Lion King and Once Upon a Time numbers...

Yeah it seems to be standard tarantino but nothing significant, so screenplay, maybe an acting nod, and a bp nom.

Cats looks like a disaster, lol.

Spreadsheet is up to date!

Woman in the Window has moved to 2020, for anyone who was hoping for it to be big. I'll get the spreadsheet updated soon!

Hereditary was amazing, I have high hopes for Midsommar

I'm here! Sorry, we've had a staffing crisis at work and my evening shifts, which traditionally have been when i work on the spreadsheet etc have gone to the dogs!

I've got a bit of time today, I'll try to finish building it and then I'll start updating it asap!

ETA: Spreadsheet is up to date!

Actually I will keep ad Astra and drop Godzilla.

I'm going to drop ad Astra and pick up The Farewell.

[mention]speedchuck[/mention], you have 4 vacant actor spots.

[mention]dharmahelper[/mention]

Wow, Gemini Man kind of looks like crap.

Yeah, we will just get there when we can.

Also, if people are busy etc and can't pick, you can just declare your draft over, and then catch back up later when you can. That way you don't feel pressured to pick, and we can skip your turns without waiting 12 hours so it is a win win.

I know, but we have to try to finish by may 1st so a certain time constraint has to be used.

12 hours have passed so I'm leapfrogging.

I'll take Adam Driver.

[mention]raz_zaa[/mention] may leapfrog as well.

Damn damn double damn

Al Pacino

[mention]Dunya[/mention]

[mention]Jackofhearts2005[/mention]

A quick reminder. Once your film opens it's locked on your roster, but if it hasn't opened yet you can dump it. After the draft I will start a transaction thread to keep track.

Same with actors. Once they appear in a film they are locked, but prior to their film opening they can be dropped and replaced.

As such, you can simply leave some actor spots blank for now, you can simply declare your draft over and wait for may 1st, whenever you feel it appropriate.

[mention]mongoose[/mention] may pick when ready.

[mention]JaggedJimmyJay[/mention]

[mention]novaselinenever[/mention] can leapfrog.

Sabie12 takes Ian mckellan.

It's Jack s turn, as always. In 3 hours sabie can leapfrog. And the period for picks is shortening to 12 hours after this next pick is made.

[mention]Jackofhearts2005[/mention] you still have one more movie to pick but you can fill it anytime. Even if you've already moved onto actors.

I'll take Leonardo DiCaprio.

[mention]raz_zaa[/mention] back to you!

Right, so I'm pulling the triple leapfrog, lol.

I'll take godzilla: king of monsters.

[mention]dunya[/mention] you may pick, and you may even pick your first actor after that.

[mention]raz_zaa[/mention] [mention]speedchuck[/mention] [mention]jackofhearts2005[/mention] x2, pick whenever you get here.

[mention]raz_zaa[/mention] you may double leapfrog.

[mention]speedchuck[/mention]

You can leapfrog.

Actually, it IS a movie, and a damn good one, lol. But... yeah. Fixed.

Ad Astra

Back to [mention]raz_zaa[/mention]

Ill take Bohemian Rhapsody 2 Rocketman

[mention]Dunya[/mention] !

Sorry to hear that Sabie, and yes that's allowed

Sabie has 3.5 hours until it has been 24 hours since she's been on the clock. If we reach that point, Jack would have the right to leapfrog and make a pick, at which point Sabie would just get her pick in whenever she eventually got here.

by the way, 1917 is shot in one continuous scene... OSCAH

I'd like to say yes, so that it could fall to me as a pick, lol...

But no, if a film has only appeared at film fests, it is not yet technically "released", so it is totally a good choice!

DharmaHelper wrote: ↑Fri Apr 05, 2019 3:25 pm @timmer Mongoose's first pick was 1917

My two picks were "Goldfinch" and "Cats"

Then Mongoose picked Judy.

Oh, lol, that's i get for checking on my phone while in transit
