Nice pick, Lobo. Though I prefer the definitive version Back to the Future III.

If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.

Sound, all done.

Sorry, I was torn between a few films but went for a sure fire vote winner.

Good picks thus far

The eternal question, do I knock off a solid black and white or foreign language film (my knowledge here is limited) or go for my favourite of all time films with the next picks..

I worked as a projectionist at Odeon for 5 years, pitty I can only pick 1 film from that era.

How does the draft order work, does it go up and down, or from last to first etc?

Snake order, you picked first in Round 1 so you'll pick last in Round 2  but first in Round 3.

For Crime can we have 'Mystery' - I think we were allowed that last time?

They both went in high, that's factually correct, both tried to play the ball at height.  Doku with his foot, Mac Allister with his chest.

I probably should have put that in at the beginning. To make it fair, I think we should add it at the end of this round. Unless those who have already picked don't mind adding it right now?

All my big guns went early as I expected.

I would have picked something different if I had the choice.

Aye. It's trending.

I will be strategic for my first pick. Looking at the categories, Family/Animation is by far my weak point. Only really one or two I can pick and I don't want to gift that away.  ;D

I'd like to thank Hazell for backing up what I said in the last draft about Godfather II being the superior film.

Anyone else finding this to be more of a difficult puzzle in terms of categories and decades than the pre-80's one? In that I could basically pick what I wanted and didn't have to bother about the rules, and the films were available. Here, intended picks get grabbed, it's a difficult puzzle ("wtf I need a horror from the 50's now"), and I'm cursing only one drama. One drama FFS. I need 5.  ;D

There’s one particular Drama I’m very surprised didn’t go on the first pass.

If it's the one you're thinking of, I considered it but I wanted to grab what would have been my first two picks in the 80's and 2000's draft.
