Ooooh this is gonna be close at the bottom to lay out which of us are gonna get down to B.

How many get to stay and how many go down to B?

I think it's 3 each... ?

Do we know if everyone is still in for next year? Do we need to do any recruiting?

I'm in...it's one of my favorite parts of the year...is that sad?

I also just realized I've been playing some sort of version of this game for over 10 years now! Feb 2007 was when I join Fantasy Moguls. I remember that I drafted 300 and Wild Hogs, both films my buddies thought were going to bomb. I crushed them all and then found the super leagues. I was hooked. I was single at the time. Now I'm married with 2 kids! Crazy.

I know I started on or before April 08. I remember having the option to pick Leatherheads, Nim's Island, Smart People, Baby Mama, etc. I remember winning the May-July in a squeaker watching for how much X-Files 2 made in its OW.

Same as you Brockster, I played this thing for the first time in early 2007, and I had Wild Hogs on my slate too. 10 years !!! Damn !
I was 25 then, I'm 35 now. My cinephile occupation then was just to go watch films in theater, and today I run a film festival on the Champs Elysées avenue. I wouldn't have believed that if you had told me so 10 years ago.

that's me! even down to the 2 kids part.

i'm totally down for another draft

Crazy!

I can't remember when I joined the Full Year draft. I certainly remember the first incarnation of the game, which was 2006. I dropped Borat from my slate and thought INLAND EMPIRE would earn me some PTA. Big mistake. So nearly 11 years for me. Since then I've got married, moved countries, and make movies instead of factual entertainment TV programming.

And I'm so very old.

That is correct.

We might. Geezer has been MIA a lot lately, has dropped out of the Super Leagues, and doesn't answer my emails. If someone is closer to him than I am, could you ask him if he's in for next year?

Here comes UDM!!

I have the feeling I'm gonna drop to last soon... before Diesel & Co help me climb back at the last minute.

I have a feeling I'm gonna drop to last soon...and stay there.

You should be good til Furious 8's release though. After that, you're all alone buddy.

I had dropped The Wall for The Promise Shryke. Not that it'll make a huge difference.

Sorry, Chien.
