Samie. And he wants to get rid of newbies on the forum.

Aren't you one short? No adventure/fantasy pick.

[Betty Blue]

Aren't you one short? No adventure/fantasy pick.

And no 60s pick!

[classycarra]

is this the missing one?

Crime )10's)-  THE TOWN

didn't see the untouchables, was that from the last draft?

[red mongoose]

He stole that from my 80s draft list, mate. The next original idea he has will be the first.

[classycarra]

come on in Samie, don't mind us

[Chakan]

Did Samie fuck up? Do we get to pick a movie for him?

[Draex]

Did Samie fuck up? Do we get to pick a movie for him?

[Betty Blue]

Did Samie fuck up? Do we get to pick a movie for him?

I think this means we all get another wildcard 

[Betty Blue]

A few that fulfill all the missing criteria -

Carry On Up the Khyber (1968) - Adventure



The Vengeance of She (1968) - Fantasy



Son of Godzilla (1967) - Adventure

[Samie]

Fucks Sakes! 

I'll take whatever. 

[Musketeer Gripweed]

Fuck sake Samie.

Just when I see those 60s posters, I did think about Barbarella,  but I must confess I haven't seen it in a long long time. I take it people think it is shit now.

[Hazell]

First round of matches up:

https://www.redandwhitekop.com/forum/index.php?topic=353897.new#new

I've moved Samie and Chakan's match to tomorrow while we deal with his incompetence.

[Hazell]

Thanks! Just seen the draw after fiddling with all that code, gonna be tough to get through! Good luck either way!

Yeah well put. Definitely won't be to everyone's taste, but I really enjoyed it for it's breakthrough Afro-Surrealism and sense of humour - rare to have a film relate to contemporary politics in an original way, without being too on the nose/boring

[edit] just clocked we both went political in our comedy pick - looking forward to all the (near impossible) matchup decisions to vote on

Sorry to Bother You is definitely different but still packs a punch, and all the better for it.

Yeah, I don't know how many people have seen In The Loop but I love it; I know they're considered 'classics' but that and Four Lions are two of my favourite comedies of all time.

[Samie]

 

I've posted a link to the Film Thread too mate.

Thanks mate.

The Vengeance of She (1968) - Fantasy

The answer to the question "why are there no female director's in the draft?". The industry that created that, kin ell.

I really like In The Loop too, but yeah same for me Four Lions is definitely a favourite (and a wonder, in how it was made). Had it on my Comedy short list but was in the wrong decade sadly!

[Hazell]

Did we sort out Samie's team? If not, I'll make an executive decision.

[Hazell]

Final team then:

War- Apocalypse Now (1979)

Crime- The Untouchables (1987)

Adventure - The Vengeance of She (1968)

Sci-Fi- Interstellar (2014)

Romance- Gone With The Wind (pre-1950's)

Animation-Shrek 2 (2004)

Comedy- Rush Hour (1998)

Horror/B &W- Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954)

Wildcard 1- Hero (2002)

Wildcard 2- Excalibur (1981)

Will get the second round of matches up shortly.

[Baby Huey]

I agree. You have tremendous taste. I am a little distressed that I am invisible to you as well, but shit happens.

I picked that in an earlier draft, so I couldn't in this one.

I voted for you, stop being so needy. You don’t need validation from a complete stranger, do you.

[red mongoose]
