Glad I wasn't considering Please Don't Destroy. It's getting dumped onto Peacock.

Sigh… I lose a film before the draft even ends…

I'd be for that, you'd do well tranny

That was going to be my next pick.

I'm glad Chien kept poking me then because the clock ran while I was asleep and I almost timed out

I'll take Borderlands. I took it last year but had reshoots in January so it didn't come out. Hopefully they finally have it in a decent spot and it'll come out this year. If not, to the waiver wire it goes!

Yeah... we're already scraping the bottom of the barrel. These last rounds are going to be nasty. I guess I'll take the Untitled Please Don't Destroy Project . Hopefully this isn't another SNL bomb like Popstar but after having to solve for 5 or so openings on my slate last year, I just want somethi...

I'll take Asteroid City. That trailer is as Wes Anderson-y as a Wes Anderson movie gets but hopefully it does well in Cannes and springboards from there. I'm curious to see how this one does at the box office with Focus distributing.

Great ideas, guys. Naming the competition after Shryke and honoring him with a countdown he would have loved, this would be a great tribute.

Agree, I love both those ideas

I'll go with Five Nights at Freddy's . It's set for day-and-date with Peacock at the moment which doesn't help but fans have been waiting around a decade for this so I'd imagine many will hit the theaters. Hopefully it burns brightly in the 5 days it has in Halloween season before it crashes and bur...

Still super saddened by the news. I know Shryke would want us to keep going but man, I'm gonna miss the big guy.

I'll take A Haunting in Venice. Death on the Nile fell off a cliff at the box office but maybe the horror theme of this one can get a little more juice out of the Poirot franchise.

Oh my God…

I'll do Haunted Mansion and trust that it's nearly as good as the original Pirates.

That was the other film I was debating but the PG-13 rating scared me off a bit. Plus I have no idea why it's releasing in July when it would clean up in October lol

In the interest of not getting skipped myself, I’ll take Trolls Band Together. No idea how this one will do given how the 2nd movie was dumped to streaming during the pandemic but it’s worth a shot here, especially with all the boy band jokes they’ll be making.

Hope the Shrykester is alright.

I’m going to give Shryke the benefit of the doubt and hold off until I go to bed in 4 hours.

If he’s not back at that point, I’ll pick so I don’t time out before I wake up.

I've had my fill of remakes and superheroes so I'll take something riskier... Mickey 17

No idea if it makes this date but it's in post-production and with Bong Joon-ho coming off a Best Director win and RPatt starring, it could do well. At the very least, this is one I actually want to see.

I guess I’ll go Blue Beetle. I don’t trust anything superhero anymore let alone DCU and this could very well bomb but at least it should stay on the calendar…
