The last digit of this post will determine how many times I rand the list (If the last digit is 0 then I'll rand it 10 times)

edit: p=56280427

Here's the order:



If someone else wants to join they can, but you need to post your category before Wain Man does and you'll take spot #10 on the list.

Now we wait for Wain Man and then I'll PM everyone to let them know we're underway

I'm confused....why are waiting for Wain Man? He doesn't pick until number 7.

For his category


Can’t start draft with an unknown category

if u need another person I'll play didn't see this thread till just now.

animation would be my category.

Ok you are in to draft 10th

hi sorry, don’t think i’ll have the time to participate in this draft after all, will watch from sidelines instead

so Wain Man takes a Wain check and I'm going to slot riverboatking directly into his slot as a substitution.

Final draft order and categories:

Draft #	Player	Category
1	Shuffle	Ozu Movies
2	iraisetoomuch	Comedies of the last 10 years
3	mrbaseball	Billy Wilder written or directed
4	Zeno	Westerns
5	Nicholasp27	Neo-Noirs
6	Dominic	Sci-Fi that never leaves earth
7	Riverboatking	Animation
8	Phat Mack	Kurasawa Movies
9	xander biscuits	Hitchcock or Kubrick Movies

Google Sheet

If you fill it in with your movie that would be great

Might also be nice to number your movies so that people will know what round something was picked in

Deadpool - Good
Deadpool (1) - Better

I don't think there's many of us who have seen more than three Ozu movies, so this is going to be interesting

I've PMd Shuffle and the first pick is with him.

Let's cut everyone a bit of slack for the first round because people won't know that it's started but after that I think we should go for 4 hour draft windows.

Draft a movie.
Fill in the spreadsheet.
PM the next in line.

You don't have to wait for me to say someone is skipped, but I might say it anyway. If you know you won't be around then feel free to PM someone with your pick who might be around. Could be the category owner, someone who has already picked in that category or even someone after you in the draft.

If you're skipped catch up at your leisure.

And most important:

-Interesting write ups wherever possible
-Have fun

which makes it very important to be early on in the draft order...

There's a ton of them floating around on the free services, and almost all of them are visually interesting. They're worth checking out for any movie fan. Plus, given the nature of the internet, if you don't like them there's always a squirrel attacking a bird feeder just a click away.

Hmmm... is it to late to pick squirrel/bird-feeder as a category?

so we just draft other people's categories and not our own, correct?

Correct

And after the draft you rank your category

T2 was the 1st R rated movie I saw in theaters my mom took me.
it was awesome.

love me some real red ropes.

I already regret this as I know theres no way I'll be able to give it the time it deserves. I'm sorry, please take me out.

Best of luck to everyone in the draft.

Round One
Category: Science Fiction on Earth

Blade Runner
Ridley Scott



I love the dystopian atmosphere created in this movie. It seems like the look and mood has been copied a thousand times since it was made. Ford, Young, Hauer and Olmos are all great in this. Its got action and intrigue and mystery to it and has a noirish quality that I really liked. I think this is a very groundbreaking movie that influenced many that came after it.

so far:
Blade Runner

Zeno has been pm'ed

haha bladerunner was the only movie I was positive would get a #1 ranking.

The Day the Earth Stood Still, sci-fi on earth. My pick. Write up tomorrow. Please pm next, internet intermittent

I'll take iraisetoomuch's place

Ok then pick now since he was second in order

You will have to judge irtm’s category tho since people already picked.

So comedies in last 10 years is yours now

that's fine lol I was thinking something from the comedic genre, had I arrived in time to submit a category

pick coming shortly
