timdraft #4: Movie Category Draft (1 Viewer)

[timschochet]

What rule is this. I thought we were allowed to change categories.

You are. But later tonight, when I input your pick, I need to have a category. Otherwise it's more work for me. So please choose one now; you can always change it later.

 

[Val Rannous]

You are allowed to change. But it needs to be in a category to start with, then you can change it if you desire. Otherwise it's a null pick.

Tool.

 

[AcerFC]

Put it in filming a movie category for now

 

[Tremendous Upside]

Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind, Outer Space

Trailer:

 

[Kumerica]

Arguably, the trailer fight between The Bride & Ellie Driver in Vol. 2 is tighter and better, but this scene set a new Tarantino standard for stylized, over-the-top action-violence.

[Andy Dufresne]

Great, great picks here folks.

 

[Nick Vermeil]

Great, great picks here folks.

Close encouters was my next pick. I have about nine picks I want to make with my next turn. None of them will make it back to me.

 

[Nick Vermeil]

Tim I will judge multiple roles in a film. I'll ask three others to slot my pick in the rankings and take the average.

 

[Mrs. Rannous]

10.8 - Zardoz - WTF Movie

The gun is good. The penis is evil. The penis shoots seeds, and makes new life to poison the Earth with a plague of men, as once it was, but the gun shoots death, and purifies the Earth of the filth of brutals. Go forth ... and kill!

Floating giant head? Check.And my movie stars Sean Connery. Does your crappy movie star Sean Connery? Didn't think so.

 

[krista4]

10.9 Gene Hackman as Royal Tenenbaum in The Royal Tenenbaums - dramatic actor in comedic role

Great actor, great role, great movie. 30% of my draft is currently Hackman-connected.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Great event today.

$51K raised for some of Manhattan's neediest families.

Norwood make any embarrassing picks today?

See you in the a.m.

simey told me about this movie because I didn't have any for this category. Back to the drawing board. I can honestly say this is the only category I can't take something I have seen. I have not even heard of one of the movies taken yet amd all the movies I watch, I get

 

[joffer]

10.10 Final Shootout - Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

Haven't been able to find a good YouTube clip yet

 

[Mrs. Rannous]

You know it's a snipey sort of draft when Zardoz is a snipe.

That's just weird.

 

[Tremendous Upside]

Doubt it will get back to me tomorrow afternoon, but skip me if it does before I post

 

[KarmaPolice]

10.02 North by Northwest, Spies

Was thinking about moving Notorious to spies and taking this one too, but usually try to avoid taking more than one of the same director. Great pick.

 

[KarmaPolice]

Arguably, the trailer fight between The Bride & Ellie Driver in Vol. 2 is tighter and better, but this scene set a new Tarantino standard for stylized, over-the-top action-violence.

10.04 Showdown At the House of Blue Leaves, Kill Bill Vol. 1 (Fight Scene)

That is the one that I had written down on my list, but this is a great pick too.

 

[KarmaPolice]

Gotta say - impressive progress made this weekend. Usually these things die off completely during that time.

 

[Mrs. Rannous]

Gotta say - impressive progress made this weekend. Usually these things die off completely during that time.

We need to get lives. Really.

 

[Kumerica]

Well, according to another thread, no one on this board goes out drinking anymore.

 

[KarmaPolice]

If anybody can take a PM for my 10th rounder let me know. I think I will be able to peek at my phone, but I am not sure. wanna have back up in case I get busy at work.

 

[Time Kibitzer]

I'm probably too late asking now, but are there any east coasters that could take a PM for my next picks?

 

[Time Kibitzer]

Well I'll be sending a list for my next 2 picks to Acer since he's usually up early being a teacher and all, so hopefully he'll be able to make them for me tomorrow, if he's busy you can just skip me when I'm up.

 

[Tiananmen Tank]

10.11 Traffic -- Drugs

Little drunk after a Game of Thrones get together, didn't want to hold things up in the morning. Will come back to this later.

 

[Nick Vermeil]

10.12 Marlon Brando in the Freshman - Dramatic actor in a comedy

 

[KarmaPolice]

10.11 Traffic -- Drugs

Little drunk after a Game of Thrones get together, didn't want to hold things up in the morning. Will come back to this later.

Another one that I was surprised lasted this long. Had 3 picks written down for possible selections in the 10th, and this was one of them.

[hooter311]

10.02 North by Northwest, Spies

Great pick, I had it tagged for later in the round.

 

[hooter311]

10.07 - Open Range - Shootout

Awesome that this got the recognition it deserves with this high of pick. The sound in this shoot out was just incredible.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Don't see Norwood around, you can skip me

Handing out clothes & toys until noon

LOOK AT ME! I DO STUFF FOR MY COMMUNITY!

 

[KarmaPolice]

I might be around, but I sent a couple picks to Acer. Thanks for posting those, and I hope I don't get sniped in 4 picks - it is a selection I have been thinking about since the first round.

 

[Andy Dufresne]

If there was a "Most Underrated Movie" category, Open Range would be near the top of the rankings.

10.14 Final scene in Seven-Shocking scene

 

[Dr. Octopus]

10.14 Final scene in Seven-Shocking scene

Nice pick - completely escaped me for some reason but the last 15-20 minutes of this movie is just so good. The Kevin Spacey/Brad Pitt exchange during the car ride is fantastic leading to the "shock".

 

[tish155]

10.14 Final scene in Seven-Shocking scene

Nice pick - completely escaped me for some reason but the last 15-20 minutes of this movie is just so good. The Kevin Spacey/Brad Pitt exchange during the car ride is fantastic leading to the "shock".

I was watching it last night actually, and couldnt believe that no one took it yet....One of my favorite movies and Love Kevin Spacey in this!

 

[Andy Dufresne]

Brad Pitt's acting in that final scene is not good, though. "What's in the boooox?"

Se7en is my #1 movie that's "really good but I don't ever need to see it again". It's so damn bleak.

My initial list had "sloth" on it as shocking moment. That scene still gets me.

 

[timschochet]

Good morning. I will take Kelly Leak's ALMOST a home run from The Bad News Bears/ sports scene.

I've watched this scene dozens of times, and I still feel the disappointment, even though I know what's coming...

 

[AcerFC]

Ill give KP a few minutes to make his own pick

 

[ScottNorwood]

Buster Keaton - Playhouse. Multiple performances

 

[AcerFC]

For KP, Sorry, I have to teach and didnt want to hold things up

10.16 Daniel Day Lewis as Christy Brown in My Left Foot (real/historical person)

PM going to Higgins
