The Draft League March- May League A Draft Room

The Brothers Bloom.

I wasn't expecting much from 'Wild Child' but I didn need something that would give me a little in the way of Box Office! The remaining choices are pitiful. I'll waste my last choice on:

12 Rounds

I'll be posting my replacement for 'Wild Child' as soon as Leestu makes his final pick.

I really don't want to pick this but similar to your situation Roodey, I think I need the extra box office dollars (even if it's only a couple of million) and can probably afford the hit to IMDB. I hopefully have enough PTA picks so I am going to choose.......The Haunting In Connecticut.

I'm dumping 'Wild Child' for the boggy stench-filled slime pool that is 'Dragonball Z: Evolution.'

Can everyone here do me a favor and make sure they update their own statistics. I'll be responsible for the standings but if you could put down the stats for each of your films that would make it a lot easier. It would be better for everyone to do their own 8, than me need to look up all 48. Thanks guys. Look forward to the season.

That's a really good idea Geezer. It'll make things a lot less labour intensive. What's easiest, posting here every Tuesday morning or just sending you a PM?

Just set up a post with all of your movies on it and update it every Tuesday. That would work best.

We just need Shaan and Buscemi to update their slates and we should be able to start putting some scores together.

TOTALS $371,288,727 PTA - 12 Top 5 - 38 IMDB – 54.2

I am dropping 'Dragonball Z:Evolution' for 'Every Little Step.' If I'm not going to earn any box office, top five or imdb, I might as well pick something on a soft weekend which might score me some PTA.

Please feel free to double check my miserable grasp of mathematics and addition. My best guess at the standings so far:

A_Roode: $146,496,591 B.O, 13 Top 5, 19 PTA, 40.3 UR
Tranny: $70,958,630 B.O, 5 Top 5, 5 PTA, 7.2 UR
Leestu: $147,220,567 B.O, 17 Top 5, 19 PTA, 21.5 UR
Buscemi: $94,705,485 B.O, 10 Top 5, 6 PTA, 28.1 UR
Supershaan: $107,769,421 B.O, 17 Top 5, 2 PTA, 30.5 UR
Geezer: nil

5+4+5.5+6=20.5 points
2+2+3+2=9 points
6+5.5+5.5+3=20 points
3+3+4+4=14 points
4+5.5+2+5=16.5 points
1+1+1+1=4 points

therefore:
1. A_Roode
2. leestu
3. Supershaan
4. Buscemi
5. Tranny
6. Geezer

Not sure what happened Roodey, but your figures for me are incorrect. I just updated my slate now, but even last weeks stats are more than what you have for me. Maybe you left out the stats for Haunting in Connecticut. I think that will lift me to 2nd overall. I do update my stats each week though so you can refer to those next time. Regardless of that, thanks for doing an update (we are a 1/3rd of the way thru), and I don't think I'll be near the top by the end so it's good to be thereabouts now.

Wait, you mean you wanted me to count all of the movies that you'd picked? *lol*

Standings fixed! Sorry about the oversight.

Here comes my Backloaded Madness!

I'm dropping American Violet for Every Little Step

So now you take my advice, Geez.

Actually, its more like taking Chien's advice

No can do Geezer. 'Every Little Step' is already on my slate. I picked it up back on March 29th.

Sorry dude. Didn't realize. It was still in the free agent pool.
