damn, I have a quiz tomorrow and instead of looking at my course material, I spent most of the night reading a 9000 post thread about a fantasy Hollywood draft in a sports forum.

Oops.

A group of guys (mostly, I think) fill out a 15 spot roster including (but not limited to)...

Producer
Director
Writer
Lead Actor
Lead Actress
Supporting Actor 1
Supporting Actor 2
Supporting Actress 1
Supporting Actress 2
Bench
Bench

Using Hollywood people from the end of the silent era (1927) through the present time.

After the draft, each team must come up with three different movie ideas, write them up, using their stable of talent and the movies are then judged by either a panel or the forum as a whole....I'm not exactly sure how they're going to work it out.

Currently they're through 5+ rounds, with the latest pick being Peter Sellers, IIRC.

it's actually kind of neat.




Also, I came to katie byron with a pickle? Better than the RD one, at least.

Oh, here are the real rulse:

Quote:


Draft would be something like 15 rounds. Each studio would draft at least one of each of the following, and then 8 additional (any role) to fill their "bench".

"Starting" positions for a film would be:
1. Lead Actor
2. Lead Actress
3. Supporting/Character Actor
3. Supporting/Character Actress
4. Director
5. Writer
6. Composer/Soundtrack guy
7. Wild Card (can be any of the above or any add'l movie role, like special f/x, producer, editor, craft services, whatever)

Once each "studio" has completed its draft, it must create its production slate which will consist of 3 movies. You are responsible for pitching the concept and constructing the cast from amongst your roster. You pick the genre, briefly describe the type of film, etc. For example, "a mob movie with Al Pacino, Diane Keaton, Abe Vigoda, Talia Shire, Francis Coppola, Mario Puzo, Carmine Coppola, and Marlon Brando" would be the brief pitch for "The Godfather".

An independent film board (I'll volunteer) will then read each teams' three posted pitches, and then assign grades for each film based upon a to-be-announced scoring criteria. I would be looking at quality of idea, quality/interestingness of cast and crew, and projected box office and critical performance. The scores will be averaged out, and we'll calculate the leaders/winner.

There will be one overall winner for "studio" (the combined score of the studio's three movies), and one overall winner for "best film" (the single film with the overall highest score).

This would seem to be a pretty easy and fun way to go with this idea. Let me know what you guys think.
This is something to keep in mind. We probably wont use this exact format, but he provides both a good template, and also a good strategy in terms of the direction of your studio.

15 total picks. Standard snake, double picks starting in round 6. So, 10 total rounds. Like this:
A
B
