Yeah, I was middle of the pack on the music draft, which was much better than I expected. Decided at the very beginning that there were some artists I wanted represented and that I'd only go with something I love and avoid stuff that I knew would score better. I expected to end up dead last.
- I was just hoping that it was curiously entertaining enough to get a 6 or so.
That movie was simply dreadful. But I'm curious how you even were aware of it?The whole key to these drafts is not to take bottom 5's - you have to pick some categories last, and if you can get away with 6-10 points for those, you'll do well. That's what happened to me in the one draft I won (well, tied for the win) - no bottom finishes, and then a few good breaks on the others.
The 1 for Ilsa (which it earned) will keep me on the bottom half for awhile

I liked a lot of your selections. I think a lot of drafters drafted songs that they love. A lot of different genres were covered such as different forms of rock, blues, country, rap, jazz, punk, metal, old timey, soul, funk, disco, folk, and everything in between.Yeah, I was middle of the pack on the music draft, which was much better than I expected.

On this one, I'm in it to win it.

Looking for the sympathy vote I see.
Well, for reference, for the movies drafted I'd have Khan on one end and The Fifth Element on the other.
Thanks, Andy. I'll forward the list to you when I get to that stage (after I hunt down and watch a copy of Solaris).
The way our tastes clashed in the other draft, I am bracing myself for a crap score here.
I'm doing a scene category, but I'm still watching the entire movie. I think it's tough to judge a scene if you're not familiar (haven't seen it in a while) with the movie.
One could argue that the scenes should be able to stand on their own. Watching the whole movie could subconsciously effect things- maybe giving a crap scene in a good movie a boost or vise versa. I am sure the judging is going slow because most are doing this though. I am slowly working through the weird movies.
It does when some of the judges of the scenes/portrayals are also doing the Movie section as well.
I get it. I am judging 3 categories as well- 1 movie, 2 scene. Just surprised there hasn't been more judging in general. I didn't watch the movies for the long takes, and didn't plan on it for shooting a movie, but I get judges wanting to do so.
Tim: THIS IS AN OFFICIAL ADVISORY THAT I, DOING BUSINESS HERE AS AERIAL ASSAULT, AM:(a) still alive (thanks for asking!); (b) am working on my categories; and (c ) expect to have Superhero rankings completed within the next 120-144 hours, with the scene categories to follow. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.
I expect to have my rankings done by Sunday, or possibly Saturday, if no one in my non-virtual life gives me any hassles.
Yeah, this is what's going on with me as well - I'm doing the Outer Space list (since I had already started work before getting a second category), then I'll do scary kid scenes. I may end up having to watch Solaris on Youtube, since I can't find a copy anywhere.
Louis CK does a good routine on this, but yea, pot got waaaaay stronger
A few weeks ago I smoked a doobie, first time in around 18 years, and a good 30 years from being a steady recreational consumer.
HFS was it potent. Was at a Rangers game and I thought I was going to have a heart attack walking to my Club Level seats. No memory of the 1st period other than feeling like I was tripping.
I think I'm done with the herb. It ain't nothing like the stuff we bought for $35 an ounce back in the day.
sorry for your loss.tish155 said:
