Have already seen to Citizen Kane off the back of the great chat and picks here, and next up is the natural choice Rikki-Tikki-Tavi...! Was nice to watch Kane after so many years not getting round to it - it was enjoyable, but it also felt like I'd finished some long overdue work too!

Compiled all the movies selected on a letterboxd list. Curious to see how many have everyone seen:

https://letterboxd.com/felgue89/list/pre80s-draft/

Surprisingly, I barely made it to 50%, and that's including my own films and some of that I just watched because of them being picked on this draft. My lack of knowledge of Kung Fu movies, and Asian movies in general, really dragged me down. Guess it's time to start crossing some of them.

Its about 50% for me too. But the great thing about these drafts is that they are great watch lists for the future.

Night gents, Killer. Hopefully, everyone is well and enjoyed the footy.

Congrats to those who made it to the knockout stage, and hard luck to those who didn't.

Some outstanding lineups dropped out - the draft world is a cruel one - but others are still in play, and we have some great matches to look forward to:

Q1 El Lobo vs Lastrador
Q2 Classycarra vs Max_powers
Q3 Buck Pete vs Hazell
Q4 Chakan vs Betty Blue

Weekends are notorious draft and vote killers, so the matches will be up on Monday. So, enjoy your weekend, maybe do a bit of research for the coming matches, and we will vote and discuss movies as we procrastinate at work.

I didn’t vote in any of these. As if the usual suspects have all gone through though. All the newbies booted out. Call yourselves inclusive? Shameful stuff!

Edit - I take that back I see Classy and Buck Tooth have made it through. Congrats!

WOW.  That was a tough decision between El Lobo and Chakan.

Id like to cuddle up on the couch with both of them for a movie night to be fair. :)

I hadn't even clocked that Welles was narrator, just accidentally made the link.

Was good fun though, thanks!
