Action Movie Draft: Sign Up

post #1 of 50
Thread Starter 
Starting next Monday, maybe sooner if there is a demand.

Pick any movie you want, be prepared to defend it.

Include your time zone when signing up, a question, would you all prefer to start this thing in the evening time, around 7 EST?
post #2 of 50
I'd be interested.

Est timezone. from 9am till 6pm is better for me.

Action movies? Seems a bit...broad.
post #4 of 50
I'm in. 5 hours ahead of you Yanks but I can probably be around any time that's settled upon.

Action/Adventure, in truth I'd like to keep it away from Westerns, that's a draft in and of itself, but it seems there was some resistance to that idea.

It is broad. But so is an era draft. Lots to choose from in a ten year period, if you're a fan of action flicks, then surely you've got favorites and love to talk smack about other ones.

All for fun.

Sign me up. I am about 12 hours ahead of you. So a Monday 9pm is a Tuesday 9am for me.

A Monday 9am to 6pm would probably be best.
post #7 of 50
Count me in. I'm flexible, so fit me in any slot you like.
post #8 of 50
I'm kind of hazy on how this whole draft thing works, but count me in. I'm in the EST timezone, and I couldn't do it anytime before 7 pm.
post #9 of 50
I'm all in for this. Right now it's almost 10 p.m. here. If it's around 7 p.m. here, I'll definitely be able and ready.

If we can start sometime this week that'd be great.
post #10 of 50
I'd be up for this.
post #11 of 50
I think I might be up for this too. This is one genre where I'm not as knowledgeable as some others, but it'll be fun defending my shitty picks.

I'm in PST and any time frame works for me.
post #12 of 50
I'm down. EST.
post #13 of 50
A later time would help me the most. I'm in.
post #14 of 50
I'm in. Pacific Time.
post #15 of 50
Oh god I wish I could get in on this. Shift work is bullshit.
post #16 of 50
I´d be game.

And I am 6 hours ahead of you (EST).
post #17 of 50
Fucking IN!

Eastern!
post #18 of 50
I want in on this.

Eastern Time Zone, preferably in the A.M.
post #19 of 50
And I'd prefer a 9 to 5ish draft. And let's remember to put Kabong after 3PM so he can draft on time.
post #20 of 50
Sure!

PST.
post #21 of 50
I'll be in. CST.
post #22 of 50
I'm down for this. I'm on EST and anytime works fine for me.
post #23 of 50
Why the fuck not.

EST.
post #24 of 50
I'm Game
EST

everyone save the breakfast club for me again!
post #25 of 50
Why the fuck not.

GMT +1 aka BST
post #26 of 50
Never done one of these things. But I'm curious.

EST.

Preferably in the early afternoon. Noon - 3 type deal.
post #27 of 50
Is this Monday-Friday only, not weekends? if yes, can do it between about 8am and noonish, Pacific time.
post #28 of 50
I guess it's time that I broke my 'draft' cherry. Count me in.

I'm Central Time zone, and sometime between 8-5 would be my ideal . I may be late on my draft pick a couple of times (due to being at a client site), but I'll get my picks in.
post #29 of 50
I'm in. I'd rather do this while I'm at work on the company dime, so you can mark me down in the 7:30am to 4:30pm EST camp, my friends.

I'm counting 24, looks like that's going to be it. I'll setup a system and post it later today, I'm thinking about five rounds, two groups- one in the A.M. to early afternoon, and one group in the evening time.

Draft will move quicker than usual, start Monday and wrap up by Friday. Both groups would go on Monday, then Tuesday, etc. No break in drafting. If everybody wants, we can do the snake type thing, and each group would draft in reverse order every other day.

Make sense? Sound good?
post #31 of 50
Mmm...Delicious again, Peter!
post #32 of 50
Sounds good, Keith. Thanks again for setting this up!
post #33 of 50
Thanks Keith!...and bring it on.

I guess you are making a basic rules thread, do you? I am most looking forward to the discussion what qualifies as an action movie and what not. This could turn out very interesting to say the least.

I don't want to have a conversation about what makes an action movie. That will break my spirit.

I'll post a rules thread, but pick what you want, then in the discussion thread we can tell you if you're wrong or not, you can defend your choice.
post #35 of 50
Thats the spirit!
post #36 of 50
This is gonna be even meaner than usual. I love it.
post #37 of 50
I don't want to see anyone cry as I cockslap them round after round.
post #38 of 50
I feel terrible Keith, but I'm going to have to pull out. Training is much more intense than I expected, and my computer time is terribly limited.

Next time, I'm on it.
post #39 of 50
People can still just make or post their picks at the end of the day, Renn. There's a lot to choose from.

Thanks for setting this up, Keith!
post #40 of 50
Well, I'll be cool with that. I'll just have to post around midnight or so.
post #41 of 50
I'm in. EST.

Amen to that.

This will be one draft where my choices will probably get ripped, but I'm actually looking forward to it.
post #43 of 50
Yeah sure.

EDT. I'm pretty flexible.

Says the guy that squealed like a little bitch after every pick I snatched away from him in every round of Kirby´s glorious 80´s draft! Get ready for some circumcision. With a rusty scissor.
I kid my friend....well, maybe...
post #45 of 50
count me in, EST... i teach class untill 9 pm...damn
post #46 of 50
I'd be in like Flynn but I'm away on business all next week. Will stick my head in occasionally to praise the strong, throw the puny off a cliff and suggest action-movie titles that will make me a laughing stock.

Top idea, Fordyce. Bon chance, gentlemen.
post #47 of 50
I expect great things from you, Molt.

I'll save the happy end just for your face, Monsieur Le German. And I don't care about the hair nor the eyes.
post #49 of 50
Okay, I'm in. EST
post #50 of 50
If Rath wants to take a break from it, I'll be happy to do the "Chosen" list.
