I like that first option a lot. Still have the draft aspect, still have some actors/actresses exclusive while opening up the field for supporting roles a bit. Another thing I think we should clarify is who we're drafting. Are we doing composers, writers, producers, whoever or sticking to actors/actresses/directors 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Eh, I don’t know. Maybe I’ll sign up later if I suddenly think of something, but it’s a no for me for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dome Posted January 14, 2020 Author Share Posted January 14, 2020 (edited) What if we went more in depth? A big part of what made the first one so much fun for me was researching people and browsing random movies for people I didn't remember I liked in a certain movie until I saw them again. What if we had an On Screen Talent draft like last game, as well as a "Behind The Scenes" draft where people selected their director, composer, writers, producers, lighting/effects/choreography/etc... Not requirements, just whoever you want to improve your film. edit: hmmmm. maybe not. that could be tough to balance with random draft selections. someone could get screwed with bad picks in both spots. keeping the draft order lets 1st place double up. inversing the draft for the second draft could screw someone who thought their lead/director was the most important piece and missed out based on inverting the order for the other draft.

Supporting Actor 6. Supporting actress 7. Flex actor/actress 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 are like your bench. Can’t draft your bench until you fill your key roles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dome Posted January 14, 2020 Author Share Posted January 14, 2020 I won't force you into chosing specific targets in specific rounds, but you will have certain positions you must fill as well as flex slots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that’s what I meant. Just like fantasy football, you can go WR before RB if you want, but you have to fill X amount of receivers before you can draft your third RB etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to go RB heavy, it's your choice. But you WILL have to take another WR at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dome Posted January 14, 2020 Author Share Posted January 14, 2020 I'm also thinking about having a seperate thread where each person just makes ONE post each until everyone has their own post on the 1st page, then it's open for discussion . This is where people will post their movies/cast/teasers/etc... everyone can all edit their posts and it will be neat and tidy with people adding to their post at their own pace. come voting time everyones movies will be right there on page 1. So this thing will probably be HARD capped at 15 people. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacReady Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 The actual movie you’re making should cost a pick, too. Or something. Should promote originality somehow. Tie it in with the budget. An original idea is free, but an adaptation costs some of your budget to purchase the rights. Using yourself is free, too (writer). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacReady Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 @Dome, the draft thing is figured out. Now we have to figure out the budget. We have to involve the movie somehow. Maybe 150 million budget for everybody. A big action epic would cost like 75 million, leaving less for actors. lol f they’ve been nominated for an Oscar, X amount of dollars... That’s what we have to figure out next. No, that’s what YOU have to figure out next. You’re the host. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
