Given we've now exhausted most decades in these movie drafts, it's time to put them all together for the Super Ultimate Last Ever Movie Drat!

So each drafter will pick movies from the following decades:

1x pre-50s, 1x 50s, 1x 60s, 1x 70s, 1x 80s, 1x 90s, 1x 00s, 1x 10-20s and one wildcard, which can be an extra one in any decade.

So that's nine movies in all to pick. They should fit into the nine categories below:

Cat 1. Action/War/Western
Cat 2. Thriller/Crime/Mystery
Cat 3. Adventure/Fantasy
Cat 4. Drama/Romance
Cat 5. Comedy
Cat 6. Sci-Fi
Cat 7. Horror
Cat 8. Animation/Family
Cat 9. Wildcard (pick anything)

The genre chosen for the film, must be present on its letterbox.com or IMDB page to be valid.

Example: The Godfather: https://letterboxd.com/film/the-godfather/genres/

In this example, you can choose either drama or crime, but you can't put it on thriller as it's not one of the genres covered.

In addition, each drafter must adhere the following:

* 1 Foreign language film.
* 1 black and white film
* Only 1 movie per director.
* No repeated lead actors.
* No repeat picks by anyone who participated in the other movie drafts. i.e. you can't pick a movie that you've previously picked in previous drafts.

It would be wrong if I didn't enter right? ;)


* No repeat picks by the losers who participated in the other movie drafts.


Quick question, since I won the other 2 drafts can I use the same movies, since technically I didn't lose?

I might need to phrase that. Everyone who participated in the previous movie drafts are losers, if you know what I mean :P

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.

From the wording, I thought it meant anything anyone had ever picked in any draft ever.

So I can't just repeat mine then.

In that one we should definitely only be allowed to pick films that no one has drafted yet. Would be carnage.

Haha love it. I'm going to pick The Room and it'll probably be one of the better picks.

There's always room for more, mate! These things get even better when they're oversubscribed, in fact

We have 16 now which can be split into 4 groups of 4 or knockouts fairly easily but if anyone wants to send me expensive watches, or trips to 5 star hotels in the middle east or just a suitcase full of cash, I'll be willing to consider more entrants*

*obviously not based on anything that's ever happened when tournaments are being decided in real life.

I've invited half of RAWK again. Hoping we hit 32 this time  :D

Also, Telekon was well up for this draft when it was first pitched. Hopefully he logs in again soon so he can sign up for it.
