 Re: World of KJ Box Office Draft 2024
You'll enjoy it. The draft is fun and then you get to spend the entire year wondering "why did I take x instead of y?"

So let's chill on the arbitrary deadlines and all have some fun!

 Re: World of KJ Box Office Draft 2024
This year is very interesting. It's constantly on my mind to pick safe (obviously) but also avoid potential franchise slipups. But I also don't want to pull a Shack'23, lol, which could almost be a byword for a complete draft disaster.

 Re: World of KJ Box Office Draft 2024
Why wasn't Nosferatu included in the pool?

I only wondered because I just spotted it and thought 'hmm, that seems like a bigger release, wonder why it wasn't included'. Not a big deal. I'm sure it will make its way into the draft at some point.

 Re: World of KJ Box Office Draft 2024
I can attest to that as someone who took DC Super Pets over Top Gun Maverick
Speaking of, The Rock has been way too quiet in 2023 and 2024 for a guy who never stops working, he’s probably going to have like 8 movies come out in 2025.

 Re: World of KJ Box Office Draft 2024
So I can swap it whenever a film comes available that I want, right?

 Re: World of KJ Box Office Draft 2024
I liked doing the midseason draft that one time. The replacement picks rule feels so random, though it didn't end up mattering last year since stuffp was so far ahead. Just thinking that Algren could get a $300M grosser with his final round pick doesn't seem right.
And even giving him something like Nosferatu is weird since that movie certainly would have gone before the last pick had it been added in time.

 Re: World of KJ Box Office Draft 2024
Well, I do partly agree with Flava and his concerns, so how about I just choose a film now? That way at least I won't be getting that $300m blockbuster that he's worried about.

Alex Garland announced a new movie for A24. Throw it in the replacement pick pool!

 Re: World of KJ Box Office Draft 2024
It looks decent, too, well, from the poster. But I'm happy with my replacement pick. Garland movies don't have a good track record at the box office.

Mojo has just listed My Ex-Friend's Wedding as "Removed" from the calendar. No other site or official word yet though.

 Re: World of KJ Box Office Draft 2024
There is quite a nice list of 2024 replacements growing for anyone lucky enough (or unlucky enough) to need them:
Back to Black The Bikeriders Cabrini Civil War Flint Strong Imaginary The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare Nosferatu Saw XI The Underdoggs Wolf Man
