Is this eligible? Val took the shootout from The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly ages ago. SInce the movies about the Man With No Name are usually viewed as a trilogy, I figure this is out.Makeup pick...
Seriously?Just to clarify on Clerks- someone took Jay and Silent Bob earlier, and that eliminated everyone one of the movies in which these two characters appeared. They're all listed in post # 5.
These are prettymuch the same universe / storyline. Smith even wrote comics to bridge some of the films.Seriously?Just to clarify on Clerks- someone took Jay and Silent Bob earlier, and that eliminated everyone one of the movies in which these two characters appeared.

These are all stand alone movies apart from Clerks and Clerks 2
There are lots of movie instances like Jay and Silent Bob where they appear in multitudes of movies, but each is a stand alone product.
But, then again it is me that you keep doing this to, rather than the others.

IIRC KP was a vocal advocate for the integrity of the movie within a movie category, and argued (skillfully, even if I disagreed) against an attempt to delete it from the draft a few rounds in. I imagine he's now apologizing for his advocacy, having seen the results of the selections.Admit you were wrong about what?I can be a grown man and admit when I am wrong, so: shooting a movie scene1.

The man with no name (Italian: Uomo senza nome) is a stock character in Western films, but the term is usually applied to the character portrayed by Clint Eastwood in Sergio Leone's Spaghetti Western films; A Fistful of Dollars (1964), For a Few Dollars More (1965) and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966), also known as the "Dollars Trilogy."In the case of Jay and Silent Bob, I used Wiki, and they listed the films they appeared in. I put all of the films in post #5 at the time it was taken. There is no mention of Scream 3. I think my decision was fair.
In the case of "The Man With No Name", it's not clear that Clint Eastwood is playing the same character or that there is a continuity between the films. That's why "A Fistful of Dollars" was allowed.

I'm sorry. Sam Rockwell is his name.Kumerica, who is the actor from Moon that you want for multiple roles?
I didn't help here when I took The Aviator off the table. It's the anti-draft for me.This.IIRC KP was a vocal advocate for the integrity of the movie within a movie category, and argued (skillfully, even if I disagreed) against an attempt to delete it from the draft a few rounds in.

I still stand by my opinion that in theory it was an interesting category. Still love the movies about movies concept, but yeah - it would have been better as a movie category. I think one of the stumbling blocks is that for people who got stumped, I couldn't find a decent list to pull ideas off of online. Combine that with it being a seemingly hard thing to search for on youtube, etc.. and I had trouble coming up with scenes. I had problems in other categories of having ideas written down but not being able to verify the scene, but no category moreso than this one. I still have a lot of 'movies about movies' written down, but can't seem to come up with scenes since they aren't on youtube or either very short or are in montage form.
Still some great picks that were made for it, but honestly I thought it would end up being a stronger category.
Lesson learned for the next movie TimAcer draft - hash out the categories a little more before starting and maybe mull the categories over for a couple days. I assume the next one is starting up in about 2 weeks?![]()
It's a fantastic movie btwKumerica said:I'm sorry. Sam Rockwell is his name.timschochet said:Kumerica, who is the actor from Moon that you want for multiple roles?
Isn't he essentially playing the same guy / clone over and over?Kumerica said:I'm sorry. Sam Rockwell is his name.timschochet said:Kumerica, who is the actor from Moon that you want for multiple roles?
makes sense. Feel bad for the 3 not thereOK, first pass I have 22 in Tier 1.
The Nazis one will be done sooner rather than later. The other ones gonna take some time (or other TWO- nobody's stepped up to the plate on dramatic actor in comedy). Anyhow, Acer, you underestimate your contribution to this draft. Without you keeping order it would have fallen apart long ago. This went very smoothly and you are the primary person responsible.Also, I just want to say, thanks for all the nice words but this is Tim's thing. I just tried my best to keep it moving. Maybe it helped, maybe it didn't and people were just into the draft. But I am not trying to step on toes. But it was nice to almost get to the end without 2 a days. I would much rather take my time judging than rush through it. Would expect everyone to feel the same. Which means one of Tim's categories should be done by tonight some time.
I can't believe no Meryl Streep here. I probably should have gone that way.Just listing the draft choices for the one and only category I am judging in this draft. This is alphabetical order - I immediately copied/pasted/sorted so as to not be influenced by when something is drafted, and of course I never pay attention to who drafted what. Negative response only; if there's mistake in the Page 1 listing, here's another chance to correct it. TIA. Should take AT LEAST one week to finish watching/re-watching, ranking and write-ups. I have a feeling this might be the slowest TimDraft judging ever.

The double selections are fasinating - one was predictable (including the roles), and the other is...well, interesting, Should be fun.![]()

With the exception of 2 I love all of the films I picked and I would watch any of them right now. Instead I have to watch a bunch of crap with multiple performances like Nutty Professor and motion capture Polar Express.Did anyone else get to the end and realize with 8 or 5 picks left you hadn't drafted a personal favorite actor/actress or director or film - and couldn't fit them in the remaining categories?![]()
Yes and no. He IS playing a clone, and each one has his personality, but they represent his personality at a different stage of his own life . . . it's kinda weird, but they are practically different characters—like JWB today interacting with JWB in 2008.

I've been waiting all draft to make this pick - Tim, this one's for you...
30.20 - Iron Sky - Nazi Film.
That should add to the "I haven't seen it and have to watch it" list! I could have gone with a safe pick, but it's the last round of the draft - that should always be a wild and crazy pick. Do something unusual. And Space Nazis from the Dark side of the Moon are
