I have yours, but not Donnie's...

W has perhaps made the riskiest pick of the draft. Late Bloomer was supposedly killed by Warner Bros. two years ago.

I'm actually here so you don't have to stick around if you don't want, Shryke. I appreciate it, though.

This is a tough decision, as I've been eying three separate movies (I'll reveal the two I didn't pick when the draft ends). But I'll go perhaps the safest one and choose You're Next. Lionsgate paid a whole bunch for the rights and early festival reviews were strong. Also, I've always thought mid-Missouri would be a good place to shoot a horror film (seriously, there's nothing there).

I'll take the as yet UNTITLED JAMES GRAY PROJECT with Jeremy Renner. At least it's untitled to me. I don't have IMDB pro. No one's picked that yet, right?

You're good. I like the concept and cast in that one.

I could play it safe, as there are plenty of movies I think could do ok, but just for the pleasure of having a Joon-ho Bong film on my slate, while also teasing Chien, I will take Snowpiercer . Chris Evans, Jamie Bell, John Hurt, Octavia Spencer,Tilda Swinton and Kang-ho Song, it could appeal to the same crowd as The Grey. Hopefully it will get an early 2013 release.

I can't find anything on Late Bloomer at IMDb. Can anyone else?

Apparently Warner Bros. killed it a few years back and nothing has been done with it since. W probably made the pick out of boredom.

When something is listed as 12/31/20xx, that almost never means it will be released then. That's just a placeholder.

Yeah, If it is scheduled for the last day, that means its supposed to be out that year but doesn't have a release date yet.
And Boosh, at this stage, nothing is risky. 95% of everyone's slate is already decided.
