Not so sure about Footnote. The director's previous Oscar nominee, Beaufort, was barely seen and Salmon Fishing in the Yemen (which it's fighting for PTA points) had an excellent reception at Toronto.

But Beaufort was a mediocre film, I never understood how it won a Prize at Berlin and got nominated at the Oscars. Footnote is much, much better, and it will also benefit from being a Cannes Film Festival Winner (Best Screenplay).

And let's not forget Sony Pictures Classics is handling the distribution of Footnote, when Beaufort had a much smaller distrib behind it...

I'll take The Lucky One and hope that it's more like Dear John than the Miley Cyrus one.

The Raven... as a whole, i don't think my slate looks terrible, especially for second last pick.

I would have preferred to have a sure-fire hit on my slate instead of many question marks, but I'm glad there's still some potential in my slate. Yours is good UDM, yes.

Although his IMDB rating is going to get dragged through the mud... Should bring in lots of dollars though.
I don't think there's any particular slate which stands out at the moment though, very close all round.

I know, so it better get a few dollars, a few PTA points, and a few Top 5 points to compensate !

Well with your final pick that's a priority for you... [wink]
Re: February - April Official Drafting Thread (Division B)
It's kinda like when Shaq was still the best center in the league, but would go undrafted in a lot of fantasy leagues because he'd kill your free throw percentage make you lose a category every week (just like ultimate here, but with 9 things considered instead of 4).
Tenet: Criterion Edition. Now with more Backwards Man.

It's funny how Good Deeds went in the last round here but in the fourth in Division A.
Similar to how Butter went in the third here while it remains undrafted in Division A while I chose Act of Valor in the fifth in Division A but remains undrafted here.
