2016-17 Full Year Draft Thread (Division B)

[Walleye413]

I love the draft! And interesting so far! I was the biggest Star Wars fan in the world last year, and I think Rogue One is going to be great. But I would have picked Cap this year, I think it's going to be Yuge!

And Secret Life of Pets! Brave! It'll do well, but I don't think it clears 300mil

[BanksIsDaFuture]

Whoa, Secret Life of Pets!!!!

Even Despicable Me made it to only $250M, that's bold as fuck! And I love it. Go big or go down to Division B!

...oh wait what thread am I in...

[Shrykespeare]

Damn, tranny. That is ballsy. I had it going late 1st-early 2nd round at most. Hope it pays off for you (though not TOO much).

I'm almost positive my boldness will come back to bite me in the ass. I'm actually already regretting not taking Suicide Squad over it.

[Walleye413]

Alright Boosh, where the heck are ya? Anybody still watching the boards? I can send someone my pick - although I kind of wanted to make the first one myself.

It's 5am here and I've found myself watching the new episode of GOT, so I guess I can be available for any pm's for the next 18 hours or so.

[Walleye413]

Just sent it your way

[Buscemi]

Sorry. The Internet here was out and I was tired but I'm here now.

I'm taking Suicide Squad and hoping the buzz remains intact even after the reshoots.

[Walleye413]

Sweet, I'll get to pick after all. Would have loved Suicide Squad, but I'll take the Disney mojo, Lin-Manuel Miranda, a Princess and Dwayne Johnson. In that order. Moana.

[silversurfer19]

Hmm, interesting. Don't really see the appeal this early myself. It feels like a lesser Disney, for sure. Much will depend on the musical score for this, naturally, but I don't think the Polynesian theme will come across that well, much like Lilo and Stitch. Would be surprised if it made much more than $200m, and wouldn't be surprised if it only made $150m actually. Sandwiched between the HP movie and Star Wars is also a difficult position to find it in, but you never know. Ballsy, as you said!

[Buscemi]

I was hoping it was fall to me in the second. But anyway, it's got Dwayne Johnson and he seems to have the Midas touch right now.

[numbersix]

Wow, already controversy in the draft. Moana, eh? Could be huge, could be a more moderate Disney film. We'll see

Might be a good time now to tell everybody to generate a list of films they want, and to send that list to someone in League A who will be around before you go to sleep (or work, if you don't have access to the site). It's important we don't lose momentum on the draft, otherwise it'll take weeks instead of days.

The lure of Independence day with the similar 20 year old classic requel Jurassic Park.....is strong. And i really want to see X-Men but like many i cant see a ceiling over 300m. Im going to another sequel, this is one placed perfectly with the right timing-

The Lego Batman Movie
