Whew I really don't know what to pick then. I'll Choose The Strangers pt 1? Maybe I can corner the market on all the bad horror movies in May

I'll take Bridget Jones: Mad about the boy. The last one didn't do great - but maybe this will have a little more pull.

Wow - ya'll were busy while I was sleeping. Very kind to give me Tarot. When it surprises and makes 22 million worldwide instead of 17 million you'll all be jealous! I didn't even know half of these movies existed until they got picked. And here I thought I was clever for getting Eden. Give me a min...

To get the groups opinion - It's Thursday night and I'm good taking Tarot - but it's not my turn yet. I just figure we're gonna run out of movies and so I'm cool taking this crappy looking horror as one of mine. Or i'm fine letting it slide into the oblivion.

You do realize Anyone but You was a surprise hit. And Ana de Armas was the best thing in all four of her last movies?

Kind of my thoughts exactly. I figure it's 50/50 on theatrical release but if it does - that cast wearing bikinis on an island has to draw an audience.

Chien you stole both my movies in the span of a few picks! At this stage of the draft I think those are both winners.

So I'll pivot and choose Eden. Sydney Sweeney and Ana de Armas. Need I say more? Just hoping it gets a theatrical release.

Well, I was debating between a few and they're actually all still there. Which makes me think they might all be bad
But I'll take Novocaine. The story behind the company making the movie intrigues me. Maybe they'll get it right.

Suddenly I feel like all I'm looking at are movies that might make 40 million. Big drop off this year, imo.
I'll take Paddington in Peru. The first two were well loved, so let's hope this one gets a few families out to the movies.

Welp I had delusional hopes that several movies would make it back to me - but ya'll seemed to have the same thought. So, I'll go with the Valentine's Date movie of the year in 2025 The Smurfs. Who doesn't want to fantasize about little blue creatures while out with your S.O.

Gotta disagree - I think Twisters will be a hit. The first one was so fun - people my age will be stoked to see a new take on it. and Glen Powell is as hot as anyone right now - in all senses of the word. Twisters was my other choice. Good pick.

We're at the point in the draft where historically I know I can talk myself into anything. usually a movie I'm personally excited about - even if no one else is. But - what did we learn from 2023? Original concepts can sell! So I'll take the Untitled Ryan Coogler movie. Here's hoping it keeps its da...

Brave New World was my other choice but I was already going to lean into Venom 3: Even more venom-ier! I do not understand the appeal of these movies at all. But the first two both made over 200 million?!? Guess I'll hope the third time still charms.

Minecraft - if it's any good - will be huge. It is still the biggest game in the world. If you get three weeks of it it'll be massive. This year feels like a big crapshoot all around. I'm excited for Wicked and IF - but is that just my bias? Will audiences actually agree with me? (note - they usuall...

Hello all! Great to be back! I'm here in the Seattle area so probably one of the last to be up for the day - but I can do some picks late into the night if helpful. I have no clue what to pick! I stumbled into a decent slate last year thanks to a few films - but my top pick was not one of them. So -...
