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.

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.

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.
