As for the list thing, I think drafting from a preset list takes away a lot of the fun so I would be against it.
Completely agree. Making judgement calls on titles that don't have dates (or the case in of a few titles this year, don't have distributors) is an integral part of the game that would be especially compromised if a list was implemented. Plus, it's not overly difficult to seek out information on upcoming releases.
Ron, A really simple way to find out about undated releases is going on a given studios Wikipedia and looking at the "Upcoming Releases" section (this primarily applies to the indie distributors, but Lionsgate and MGM have a decent number of titles that are done filming that have no set date at the moment). All of the lists are really cleanly assembled and pretty much 100% complete and being able to click on a title and get more info on filming dates, approximate release windows really help in the decision-making process.

For my last pick I will take Crimes Of The Future .
It's not destroying. It's making something new.

I don't think that would be against the rules.
I will take Night Has Fallen and hope they're able to squeeze it into the near year's lineup.
Finish us out, Six.

I thought there was a no reissues rule put in place when the 3-D post-conversion craze was going on. But I guess it's okay now.

There definitely was, but there's not really any good reason to keep it in place now.

Up until now we didn't allow the re-issues indeed. My first reaction would be that re-issues aren't options for the draft, just as usuel, it feels weird. But I'll follow the majority.

I guess that it's agreed. Now where's Six?

Sorry, was watching Everything Everywhere All at Once, which apparently is 11 hours long.
A few options for my final pick, but will go with something with a release date at least.
Going for The Menu , with a strong cast and large budget, despite being a horror comedy maybe it can scrape a few million.
And we're done!

It's been so long. I'll set up a waiver wire later today. Once I remember what a waiver wire is.
