Movie Grab Bag Draft Movie Grab Bag Draft

08-10-2019 , 10:11 AM
I'm going to host a movie grab bag draft.

Each participant will be selecting 10 films.

- 2 Science Fiction films
- 2 Sports Films
- 2 Comedy Films
- 2 Animated Films
- 2 Wildcard Films

The first 4 categories are fairly straightforward. The last one can include any film as long as it isn't primarily known as a sci fi, sports, comedy, or animated film.

All films must be from the year 1985 or later.

Once a film is drafted, no other film from that year may be selected from the same category. So if The Godfather were selected, then no other drama would be able to be selected from the year 1972.

The first 10 people to "in" are in. If there are less than 10 "in"s but there's still sufficient interest to proceed, then I'll end the sign up after a week or so.

Additionally, I'll be one of the judges but I'm looking for volunteers who would also like to judge.

I won’t be around to draft, but I’d be up for judging if this wraps up first week of September or later.

in to be a judge

I'll draft if you need an extra for this to run, but I'd prefer just to judge.

If I draft I'll get annoyed when people prefer the wrong movies...

I'm thinking a flat 12 hours with no consideration of sleep times. Keep it simple.

And an encouragement to keep things moving when you're online.

Not necessary but highly recommended. No reason to be long-winded, though.

If I was drafting, I'd make sure to include a reason or two of why my movie is one of the best movies of all time in its category and I'd want to include at least 1 youtube clip of the film.

But it's all up to you.

Eh I'm not sure I'd be able to do any movies justice. If Aaron is interested in a co-owner, I'd be game.
