Vote for Oscar bonus rule. 100 mil for best picture. 50 for best director actor actress 25 for supporting actor actress adapted and original screenplay. Right now I think we have 4 yes votes. In later rounds this will make the draft more interesting in terms of strategy.

And can everyone have lists prepared and sent to another player if they think they'll be offline or delayed in any way?

It appears my oversight of Beauty and the Beast turned out to be valuable afterall, as it landed me just good enough to avoid demotion, but just bad enough to land the top pick this year! And with that pick, and the biggest no-brainer in history sign me up for Star Wars: The Last Jedi and book my championship, thanks!

Geezer no vote on the Oscar bonus? Also gotta be honest I have a 1 month old st home. First baby. I didn't get to research as much this year so don't really have a list. More of a print out with some movies highlighted. Gonna have to use some time when making picks.

Thanks. Not a sleeper yet. Up every 2 to 3 hours and usually takes about 45 min to put him back down so pretty exhausted. Congrats to you too. Heard it gets better after 3 months maybe.

Love the draft! And congrats on the Baby, that's always a joy. My oldest is in his first year of college, and I can't believe how fast it's gone.

So, missed the memo on the Oscar bonus idea. Is the write up at the top basically it? I like the idea, kind of. I think I prefer the pure draft, just Box office straight up and down. But maybe someone could make a case for the Oscar bonus that I missed and see where this is coming from.

haha, only advice i can give is, get naps whenever and wherever you can.


sigh, and there go the three that are basically guaranteed to get $300M or more.

I was hoping one of you would go for a riskier pick

I'll take Pirates 5 and go with my gut that this a return to form and box office blockbuster.


though I really wish a beauty and the beast sequel would have been announced for next march by now. ;)

I'm learning that lesson the hard way undead. I've been trying to fight it cause that's the only time I have to catch up on my shows and watch Netflix but I think I have to sacrifice tv for sleep for now. :(

Spider-Man Homecoming.

I expect Marvel + Spidey to be #3 with a shot at #2.
Tenet: Criterion Edition. Now with more Backwards Man.
