you did well with you pick.

Duh.

Doesn't mean the well has dried up.

There's always Tyler Perry's A Madea Family Funeral .

are actors only awarded points based on awards?

ignore this: I've got 30 mins, I'm going to go read the rules again.

I just did a fast read of them before tbh

Box office as well (read earlier posts on this!)

Posted: **Mon Apr 02, 2018 11:36 am**

Every pick so far is a sequel or prequel of something. Movies are dead.

Looks like we are skipping to [mention]dunya[/mention]

Posted: **Tue Apr 03, 2018 4:53 am**

The Predator

[mention]DharmaHelper[/mention], go!

Posted: **Tue Apr 03, 2018 6:42 am**

Gonna go with an oddball choice, How to Talk to Girls at Parties.

Posted: **Tue Apr 03, 2018 8:29 am**

OK I struggled with my first pick here for a minute but I think I'd kick myself if I didn't follow conventional wisdom Ant-Man and the Wasp

I'm going to wait until later in the day to see if lapluie shows up at all. Does anyone have an outside method of contacting him? (Her?)

If they don't show we will move on and worst case, I will remove them from the game. But for now let's just sit for a few while my clock ticks...

Posted: **Tue Apr 03, 2018 11:10 am**

[mention]Quin[/mention] / [mention]Sloonei[/mention]

can either of you contact lapluie to tell her this draft has started, please? I PMd her but she probably didn't get an email notification.

Still gonna be drafting by the time the first movie comes out

Posted: **Tue Apr 03, 2018 9:00 pm**

But I'm gonna be a nice guy and let Timmer get his 2 end of the round picks in before I take my second shot.

Posted: **Tue Apr 03, 2018 9:32 pm**

Technically I get 24 hours

I'll take Wreck-it-Ralph 2 and X-Men: Dark Phoenix

@dunya

Now THAT is bold... (I've heard some very positive rumblings about that film's potential, so you could have a major grab, there)

A musical/drama/biopic about one of the greatest musicians of all time with Rami Malek at teh head of the film? I'm hoping for a shitload of box office dosh plus AT LEAST noms for:

Lead Actor (Musical/Drama)
Original Score
Original Song
Screenplay
Motion Picture (Either Drama or Musical)

Posted: **Tue Apr 03, 2018 11:27 pm**

Gawd I hate that song

Posted: **Tue Apr 03, 2018 11:28 pm**

Timmer, Why if I may ask did you draft Dark Phoenix? Surprising pick, given that it is both a Superhero Film and not able to score SuperHero Money

Posted: **Tue Apr 03, 2018 11:29 pm**

Oh shit, when did they move the release date? Like, a week ago that was due to open in November, lol

Posted: **Tue Apr 03, 2018 11:30 pm**

Well, shit.

DOWN GOES FRAZIER!

Posted: **Tue Apr 03, 2018 11:31 pm**

I'm not worried. I know movies about royalty usually do well and QEII is popular but this ones a bust. Needs more Colin Firth.

Posted: **Tue Apr 03, 2018 11:32 pm**

timmer wrote: ↑Tue Apr 03, 2018 11:30 pmWell, shit.

On the plus side, Wreck-It Ralph is likely to net you a good chunk of change and a nom for Animated Feature at a minimum. And you can drop X-Men after the draft and pick up.... Something

[mention]Golden[/mention] , iron dwarf's 12 hour window has passed, you may jump in if you are ready!

Dwarf, you can still pick as soon as you get in...

Posted: **Thu Apr 05, 2018 2:00 am**

Ocean's 8.

Posted: **Thu Apr 05, 2018 3:35 am**

I guess these windows are when I'm asleep?

I pick Tully.

Posted: **Thu Apr 05, 2018 3:36 am**

Where are the risky choices? Just like Hollywood everyone plays it safe. :P

Posted: **Thu Apr 05, 2018 4:33 am**

I was going to picky Tully next

My second pick was "Bohemian Rhapsody" :P

And *if* my third pick comes back to me it'll be even riskier I think.

2018.

That's all I could find.

Balls to the wall.

Posted: **Thu Apr 05, 2018 12:10 pm**

ballsy stuff.

Posted: **Thu Apr 05, 2018 12:34 pm**

Beale street hasn't settled on a release date yet but if it hits the fall festival circuit it is almost certainly a major awards contender !

Posted: **Thu Apr 05, 2018 12:59 pm**

[mention]Iron_Dwarf[/mention] what time zone are you in? I can make some time adjustments if you are different than everyone else?

Oh, and if we get to lapluie's next turn and they don't show I'll remove them at that time.
