The Official 2013-2014 Full Year Draft Thread (Division B)

[SuperShaan]

The beginning of the end...

I'll take The Dallas Buyers Club and Nicholas Sparks The Best of Me

That's that! Good Draft everyone!

[Walleye413]

Alright, I'm feeling a little gun shy after the last round and not doing my homework. So give me a sec before I make my final pick.

[Walleye413]

Malavita. A good draft, everyone. I can't wait til next years

[silversurfer19]

I'm having second thoughts on a couple of picks already. That can't be good. May have to replace a couple I'm just not sure on release dates or potential. Great start....

[silversurfer19]

Some interesting picks from the last round. At first I couldn't believe I'd missed a Nicholas Sparks movie, but then I checked and it's still at script stage with no director or actors yet committed to the project. I think it's highly unlikely it makes it to cinemas before the game ends. Dallas Buyers Club could work well, though it's with Focus so you're gonna have to hope it goes wide at some point. Same with Girl Most Likely, a movie that could make a lot of money but needs to expand. I've recently lost faith with Luc Besson to make a movie gross over $20m. I'd like The East to do well, it looks like it could be a nice little movie, but really I don't have much faith in it.

We really have scraped the barrel at this point. Feel for the poor guys in Division A who have to find another 20 picks!

Well, Six drafted Safe Haven last year with nothing but a script and a release date last year. If they film this summer, post shouldn't be long at all.

I think Dallas Buyers Club could surprise. My mother keeps asking when the movie where McConaughey lost all that weight is coming out.

[JohnErle]

Dallas Buyer's Club wasn't on my radar until Shaan drafted it, but now that I checked it out I like the cast and it sounds like a very interesting story that could do good adult business if Focus goes wide with it. It might be too controversial for general audiences, but it seems like a good pick at this stage of the draft.

[Buscemi]

The director's last US production (the US/UK co-production The Young Victoria) grossed $11 million despite a half-assed released pattern. And McConaughey helped the similar Magic Mike gross over $100 million (of course, this may have been successful mostly due to bubble-headed Channing Tatum fans who care nothing about acting talent or quality).

I think Dallas Buyers Club has $25-30 million in it, more if McConaughey's transformation gets people talking.

[JohnErle]

Are we still using a 12-hour draft window? It looks like SleepySkunk has been on the clock for 13 hours.

[Buscemi]

Yes, yes we are.

[sleepyskunk]

Wait, I am here - and my pick is... *drumroll*

[sleepyskunk]

HUMMINGBIRD

[Shrykespeare]

Interesting choice, Skunk. That's what I thought when I drafted it... last year.

For his final pick, Rathful chooses Machete Kills.

[Shrykespeare]

For his final pick, surfer chooses Snowpiercer.
