Sorry for the delay gents. Bit early on these lands. Will pick shortly.

Was your pick time-zone related - did I miss another criteria we need to meet!?

I might be a little slow but should get on a few times a day.

Can't wait for a weekend without the 4 year old

Well, everybody knows Brazilians don’t like getting up too early. And I share border with them. So there’s that.

Seriously though. Everyone, remember to PM the next guy in line when someone’s hour is up. Let alone three, like in my case.

I was all primed to go Heat (90's) then Goodfellas for my wildcard

I would have got away with it if it wasn't for that pesky Robert De Niro

Hang on... Does the wildcard pick have to adhere to the actor/director rule?

I don't think it's too wise planning two movies in advance for this draft. Bound to end in disappointment.

2001: A Space Odyssey - 1968 - Sci Fi - Kubrick

Yep, there goes my plan out the window.

Was sure enough people had picked Sci-fi already for this not to happen. Alas.

Nice pick but damn you Betty - didn't expect to use it, but had a vague hope this'd be overlooked a few more rounds and I could cheekily put the Black and Chrome edition in as my B&W pick! Looked amazing at the cinema (I missed the original release)

Ha, that would've been a pretty epic use of the black & white category. Must admit I haven't seen that version yet. Will bump it up on my watchlist

I was slightly dubious that it'd be gimmicky, but it was great on the big screen - hope you enjoy!

Yep, my all-time co-favorite film, but I already picked it for the 80s draft.

I will regret splurging my wildcard early but couldn’t help it. My three favourite films of all time.

I like it a lot better than the first one, to be honest.

I can see that, it's totally different film from the first one and takes what Ridley Scott did builds on it. I just prefer the pure claustrophobia and horror of the first one.

Gone With the Wind gone already:

Lord of the Dance > Lord of the Rings

The worst thing about that Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring shout was that it went on a bloody wildcard

Thanks! Mine too - can't fully explain why either.

So many good things about it, but they all combine to be even better than the sum of their parts somehow. Remember the first time watching it, thinking I'd put something on for a minute and was engrossed for the full length and gutted it had to end.

Had just started to reply to say I share your view on Alien too!

Category 2. I've now updated the OP's in this and the selection thread.
