I would be thinking of three things to improve your teams.  They are:

1. Specific matchups against your opponent (see how SDDL & Titi have structured their battle --  its going to be epic). 
2. Clean up categories for a few of you that have duplicated or misread the category (on my end, I'll do the same as I communicate with you to clear up errors).
3. Most importantly --- use this website to start putting together your IMBD scores (this is not a factor in voting but more of a confirmation of what a good team looks like --- we can disagree with IMBD scores here -- its not something to be tethered to but something that is useful

Hahaha! My hero!
Maybe the group, led by your leadership, will see these drafts as PR functions and brilliant use of humor

This is outstanding work, mate, above and beyond the call of duty. It's becoming more apparent that choices are so personal, particularly when choosing categories, that the fun when voting will also be personal too. For example, the musical category. My criteria will include whether the film's story is advanced through the music and dance routines rather than stand alone. Was the music scored for the piece or chosen because it forms part of the narrative. Others will have their own criteria. In the drama category, it is my idea of epic or  blockbuster, or both, that will influence my decision. Of course, when it comes to categories that have different genres within it, then personal choice is a prerequisite but again, do the choices fit the categories? Sort of makes arguments about what film should go where, redundant now, imo. Let the people decide what's bullshit and what is bona fide! One match up might be an 11-0 hammering or a 6-5 nailbiter. Depends on your pov. I'm really looking forward to this. Well played, Trend

This is exactly how it should be mate!!!!

Love it!  No one formula, the personal and thoughtful introspection into what matters!

And honestly, the best thing for me was thinking and organizing some my favorite moments in film - reminding myself that during crazy times - the influence of sharing ideas clearly and emotionally is needed more than ever
