Re: February - April Official Drafting Thread (Division B)
I guess the fact that 3 of us are in the same time zone helps.
Interesting pick, UDM. I'd pretty much discounted the movie, myself. I just thought the premise would be too 'out there' for traditional horror fans, while April will probably still be reeling from the four pronged Lorax, John Carter, Hunger Games and Titans assault on the BO. Maybe I'll be proved wrong though, as we are still a way off then and some buzz may build.

Re: February - April Official Drafting Thread (Division B)
From the trailer, it looks like a generic slasher with the Whedon elements heavily downplayed. I think two years on the shelf killed any chance of it doing well.
Everything on this post is strictly the opinion and only the opinion of Buscemi.

Guys,
I have created the Draft League on the game site.
You can find it under "Private Leagues" under the name "Feb-Apr Draft Leagues". The password for all players is "draftQ1".
REMEMBER to put an "A." or a "B." in front of your studio name to show which division you are in.
Note: The April movies have not been added to the master list yet (except for the three that were postponed to April), so don't panic if you don't see them there. Hopefully tomorrow or Friday at the latest.
(I have also created Round Two of the Super Leagues, but I am going to wait until tomorrow to mail out passwords.)

i see what your saying and usually any film with so many delays i wouldnt touch, but that was more because of MGM, than because it was bad. or am i mistaken here? But what made me interested in taking the risk of the pick is the dearth of horror movies. Look at what happened with The Devil Inside. The Woman in Black is the closest horror movie and that's more than 2 months before.

Sorry guys
Footnote wasa clear target, but Big Miracle was a last second choice, hope it will be inspired !

I'll go with Being Flynn, with a cast like that you'd hope for some decent PTA.
