Mere hours after the draft is completed, and we have our first title in need of replacement.

Aquamann, BOM just announced that Midnight Special will be released on 11/25/15. Oh well, at least it was a late pick.

This is a re-post of some facts I reported last year
SuperShaan wrote:Here are a few little facts about this game:

The player with No.1 pick has never gone on to win the draft; in fact the pick has only led to one top 3 finish back in the 2010-2011.

Pick No.2 is the luckiest pick producing two champions 2010-2011 & 2012-2013.

Pick No.3 has to be considered the unluckiest pick, no player drafting third has ever finished in the top half at the end of the season!

Pick No.5 is the Yo-Yo pick.
2009-2010: Second from bottom
2010-2011: Second overall
2011-2012: Second from bottom
2012-2013: Second overall
2013-2014: ???

Nobody picking last has ever finished bottom of the league, interestingly picking last has produced two top 3 finishes 2011-2012 & 2012-2013.

3 out 4 champions have held the highest grossing movie of the season; the one exception was Banks, who had the Hunger Games which made $372,740,943 by the end of the season compared to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 held by Surfer (the only time the 1st pick actually picked the highest grossing movie!) which made $381,011,219.

Just a little food for thought ;)
Nearly everything expect for the pick 5 yo-yo theory still holds credence.

I can't really find a slate that detaches itself from the rest. I like Surfer's slate, but for now there's so many TBA titles on it that it's hard to determine its potential.
I like W and UDM slates, but there are too many question marks and titles with too few potential on the side.
Overall it should be a tight competition, again, which is always more fun.

I'm a big stats guy, so thanks for the numbers Shaan. However,...

"Pick No.3 has to be considered the unluckiest pick, no player drafting third has ever finished in the top half at the end of the season!"

...that tidbit is really depressing!!

Over here I really like the first 4 picks of Surfer and UDM. After that it's so hard to guess which will be the breakouts, but for top 4 I think I'd choose those 2

I'd probably give a slight edge to UDM.

Well, your #1, #2 and #4 picks are solid, but the rest of your slate could go either way. Night at the Museum 3 could make or break you.

Night at the Museum is far more accessible than The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. Museum is a proven formula while Mitty was basically expensive mumblecore.

Like Shryke said I think you've picked very solidly. I very much like your chances to beat the curse of three’s, though I too have concerns regarding Night at Museum 3, competing directly against Into the Woods and Annie will limit its potential.

I really like the pick of Annabelle though; I remember after watching the Conjuring and the group I saw it with really liked the whole thing with that doll, I can see it playing really well in October.
