positions- 3Comedy, 3 drama, 2 Horror, 1 Best picture, 1 scifi, 1 romance,1 War movie, 1 animated, 1 Razzie award, 1 any genre
,

I was thinking maybe start 1 War Movie, 2 Drama, 2 Comedy, 1 FLEX, 1 SciFi, 1 Best Pick...........fuck romance. So movies like Platoon, Patton, Pulp Fiction, etc. would have more value as they would fall under more cats...........so a starting line up[ might look like this.

Patton
The Godfather
The Godfather 2
Blazzing Saddles
A Fish Called Wanda
Gramma's Boy
Blade Runner
Platoon

I think this line up is strong in the War Movie/Drama/Best Picture Catagories but with my sense of humor I need Blazzing Saddles to have a strong outing in the comedy department. I grade it a B. I might try to pair Godfather Part 2 with Blade Runner for either Star Wars and upgrade on sci fi or upgrade at comedy.

Yes it's a slow day at work.

The reason i added romance was i was thinking how we start defenses and closers in football and baseball... might as well have a weak position...LOL

I think i would change the starting lineup to:

2 Comedy
2 Drama
1 Horror
1 romance
1 Best picture
1 Razzie award(i just think this category would be a lot of fun)
1 animated film
1.scifi
1. Series of movie(rocky, Starwars, Harry potter, etc...)** only one movie from a series can be drafted***
1. any genre

12 overall rounds, and Dual eligibility can make this even more fun...

 

[beardown07]

In no order...

Blazing Saddles
Caddyshack
Monty Python and THG
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
Super Troopers

 

[fknhippie]

Patton
Josey Wales
Cool Hand Luke
Big Jake/True Grit/The Shootist...had to have a John Wayne movie
I'll have to think about number five..and then I'll probably change my top four.

That's 12 starters though............should keep it around 10 IMO.

1 of each comedy and drama?? although, i think if we can get people to do this, i don't think anyone would complain about 2 more rounds!!!

 

[Nosferatu]

Key Largo
Double Indemnity
Outlaw Josey Wales
Enemy Mine
The Maltese Falcon
Forrest Gump
Evil Dead (Original)
Rio Bravo
Cool Hand Luke
Jeremiah Johnson
Stalag 17
Tombstone
Five Star Final


I'd have to think about which 5 i'd choose.

Oh shit............we left out westerns too.............what about pron? Nah, can't do that.....

 

[Sam Sportboy]

Blues Brothers, Blazing Saddles, The Usual Suspects, Pulp Fiction, A Bronx Tale

And there's a hell of a sleeper for drama/FLEX spot.

 

[Sam Sportboy]

In no order...

Blazing Saddles
Caddyshack
Monty Python and THG
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
Super Troopers

That's a good looking team there. Might try and flip a comedy for a war flick or Best Pic..............

 

[Chewbaccer]

1. Gran Torino
2. Smokey and the Bandit
3. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
4. The Gods Must be Crazy
5. True Grit(original)

 

[beardown07]

serious movies are a bit tougher for me...

A Clockwork Orange
Close Encounters of the Third Kind
Reservoir Dogs
The Shining
Jaws

 

[averagejoe]

O man, Close Encounters... that movie was great.

I was thinking maybe start 1 War Movie, 2 Drama, 2 Comedy, 1 FLEX, 1 SciFi, 1 Best Pick...........#@%& romance.

This is funny, Sam. Leave it to you to come up with a roster.

But no romance? Maybe I'm on an island, but aren't romance movies like kickers or punters? You need them and some are good.

While we're on the subject, does a movie like Hitch fall into your dreaded romance category? How about A Knights Tale (with Heath Ledger)? Jerry Maguire? 50 First Dates?

Pride and Prejudice (the version with Keira Knightley & Donald Sutherland)? Actually, I like that one. Oops.

 

[Sam Sportboy]

Ha.........OK, we can have romance movies I guess

 

[The Foot]

A clockwork Orange, that was a great movie by Krupnick, forgot that one!

 

[The Foot]

Opps I meant stanley kubrick

 

[TKOSpikes]

Hard to name just five... I'll add to mine.

Heat
Enemy of the State
K-PAX
The Life of David Gale
Toy Soldiers

 

[TKOSpikes]

...and a couple of good Ed Norton thinkers,

Primal Fear
The Score
