Oh I'm sorry, Did I Break Your Conversation........Well Allow Me A Movie Thread by S&T

That doesn't look terrible, eh, maybe it has a shot.  Hope so. 


Alright, we're set with our roster for the draft.  12 teams. 

JPZ
CP
Dirk
Prime
Kool
Dub
Big J
Venom
MrONegative
Noskey
JohnnyRed
Illmaticsoul

If you are not one of these 12 but still want to participate, PM me (or any other owner) and we'll find ways to have you help out.  Maybe cover weekends or something.  Offer suggestions, things like that.  Lord knows, I could use all the help I can get.

  So don't think you're gonna be left completely out. 

Now, the genres to be covered.....

Sports
Drama
Comedy
Horror
Crime
Sci-Fi
Action
Western
Utility
Utility

The last 2 are obvious, you can use any genre you'd like for those.  Hell, if you were a real tough guy, you could go War, and Musical for the last 2, and have 10 different genres covered.  It's your choice, it's your team. 

We still need a random order, Dirk, if you see this today, you think you could whip one up? 


Thread title alerts.    WON'T HAPPEN.  We have enough people coming in here and there to complain, I do not want to draw even more negative attention.  So, we'll keep it to PM's and word of mouth.  If you see me or Prime or Venom in an NBA thread, or a MLB thread or something, and our pick is coming up, say something to us.  Let us know.  This goes for EVERYONE.  We're pretty much policing ourselves.  I will try to PM folks as much as I can, but I can't be online 24 hours a day either, so we all have to make sure to check in once in a while to see where we're at.  If you can't be around when your pick comes up, send a list of 4-5 movies you would want to someone who is online.  Or send it to me or JPZ, and we will make that pick for you to keep things moving. 

Draft hours will be 6AM to 6PM PST Monday thru Friday.  Weekends will be off, but if your pick is up, and you're online on a Saturday, by all means, you can make your pick . And then the next guy and on and on.  If you're truly away from a computer til Monday, so be it.  Just make sure to get in early on Monday so we can continue. 

We will still have other discussion goin on in here, so make sure that when you make your selections, you are saying it is for the draft.  That way if you say Pulp Fiction is your pick, and then go on to talk about Goodfellas within the other convo's, we're all clear on which is which.  So bold it, underline it, make it bigger, color code it, I don't give a @#$%, just make it known what is regular discussion, and what is your pick for the draft.

I will edit the first post and put the draft into spoilers for an easy way to check what has been picked, and by whom.  It won't always be up to speed immediately as I am a slow bastard.  Deal with it. 
laugh.gif
 

Time limit.......flexible.  We don't have a new season approaching that forces us to hurry, so no reason to completely strong arm folks.  4-5 hours is enough though, if you can't be in by that point, you better have a good excuse.  Like you're dead or something. 
laugh.gif
  May you rest in peace.  Other than that, get the hell in here as quick as possible.  You may also have someone back you up.  As I stated, there are guys in this thread that are not of the 12.  If you know one of them, PM them and ask them to handle a pick for a few hours if you are away.  That's your decision, if you want to do it all on your own, that's certainly your right. 


Any questions?  We'll deal with them as they come up.  I'm not Hitler, neither is JPZ.  We're fair guys, we can tweak what needs tweaking as we move along. 


So, let's get a random order selected, and then we can begin.

That's cool by me.  This will be the draft order then.  We can start whenever Illmatic makes it in.

So does each round have a specific genre? ie. 1st round action, 2nd round comedy, etc...?
If so, what is the genre for this round?

It is open, you choose as YOU wish.  Just like a Center, PG, PF, you pick who you want, when you want.

If this is again, based only on 90's films, even though it's not my top film of the decade (I'm hoping it slides to the second round

With the first pick.. In the First Official NT Film Draft.. I select..

Pulp Fiction

Unrelated to the draft, but I'm finally watching Ghosts of Flatbush, a documentary about the Dodgers and the events of their move from Brooklyn, it's terrific.

I've had it on my computer for months, just always forget to watch it.
