But they will only be activated when a film goes off the schedule. And they are not YUGE. None will make $100m. And even if they do, it's right that the 5th picker gets them, to even up the advantage that player one had from picking the best potential box office grosser of the year.

I am fine with the fifth picker going first, but let's make it two rounds and do the snake draft. I think the advantage of going first is small because there will be 3 $500m movies and 2-4 potential $400m grossers. Also the advantage is significantly offset by the draft order 12345-54321-54321-12345. And going by the main list, you can bet there will be close to 10 films not making 2019. That will make the backup films all more important.

Re: WOKJ Box Office Draft 2019 - Group 2
Last year there wasn't even a backup list. So it's even fairer that there is one at all. I think picking two at a time also makes it more interesting after 20 rounds of picking one at a time. I would like to get the backup round over quickly, so each player picks two films at a time. We can add more films into the backup list to make each player's pick seem better, if you'd like. But I am against doing a snake draft for the backup picks.

Re: WOKJ Box Office Draft 2019 - Group 2
I don't know about the backup list making the game more fair as it currently stands. The list is very "bi-polar". It has 4-6 potential $50m+ (or even $75m+) hits, but also many sub-$20m movies.
