You guys make it increasingly harder for me to put a name associated with the film into the spreadsheet.
![]() ..and speaking of the spreadsheet.. If you guys are interested, I set it up so that we could use google spreadsheet's "forms" functionality to tally the vote. People would go to a link (actually, we could put it inline to the voting thread) and enter their vote. It won't be 100% fool-proof, but you wouldn't really be able to stuff the ballot box. I don't think we really need to worry about that with this group anyway.

I was referring to ntndeacon, actually. ![]() And I definitely think descriptions are good, I'm just trying to keep the text int he spreadsheet minimal so that it doesn't take up 8 pages. ![]() Some people just put the actor's name, many put no name.. I don't blame anyone, because if they just saw the names of some of these people they wouldn't know what the heck scene it was even when it was their selection. ![]()

No worries, I'm just trying to keep the thread alive.
![]() I would recommend everyone start putting together a post with all of their clips and descriptions for the voting thread (I still need to as well).

11.11 Best Serial Killer - Chucky, Child's Play
This draft has a had lot of different deaths involving a lot of different people. However, nobody has tapped into the lighter side of gruesome killings. Just watch this clip and try not to laugh:

yeah I know the story behind the guy who directed it. But when you're not sitting there brooding over that the entire time then you'll find it to be a very real and touching film.

I can understand why someone would be upset by the idea that a convicted child molester wrote/directed a movie that was widely released, especially when it was funded by Disney.

Here's the form for voting. However, DeToxRox, you should probably create a separate voting thread, because some people don't even look at this one. You can probably view source and copy this form, but if not, I can send you the code to put it into a voting thread.

I've held it back all draft - it was bound to come out at some point. I'm not even criticizing DeTox really, I'm just hoping we learn some things from this draft.

Hah.. I don't think he intended for it to work that way. I'm thinking it's supposed to make you sign into google, but he has it tied to idledreams.net somehow.

I know, it just hit a nerve because we're all frustrated too, and I know a lot of thought went into my picks at least, so saying "worst draft ever" rubbed me wrong. No biggie. ![]()

Understood. I tried to wait until the heat of the draft was over to say anything because saying it mid-draft would just have made it worse.

Things i learned: No (very few) rules turns a draft into a Mount Rushmore thread Without time limits, the person you are waiting on so you can pick will always be "busy all weekend" ![]() Embedding videos is an enigma i will never understand I am grateful all the work the drafters put in despite the lack of buzz. I very much enjoyed remembering/viewing those clips, good job guys |

Yeah, i think we got a lot of them.
Misfit Toys Edition- Drama-Dicaprio gets popped walking out of the Elevator-Departed(almost went with this for 1.2) ActionDragon vs OHara-Enter the Dragon Melee-Billy Batts gets beat, shot, stuffed in the trunk, then they eat lasagna-then he gets shot and stabbed some more-Goodfellas Gunshot-Denzel gets capped by the Russians-Training Day Best Death in a Comedic movie-Tie-Either the "dead gay sons" in or them making one of the Heathers drink drano-Heathers Best Death in a Horror Movie-not a horror guy myself, can't think of any. Something from the Fly would be fucking disgusting though Best Death in a Television Show-Clair Hennessey gets plowed by a drunk driver-Law and Order Best Explosion Death [TV or Movie]-MacGuyver and his Nam buddy try to defuse a bomb, Nam buddy dies. Best Suicide-David's friend Scott shoots himself in the chest while playing with the loaded gun-90210 I guess that's not an intentional suicide, but still would be one. Best Serial Killer [TV or Movie]-Dexter-Dexter Most Heroic Death [TV or Movie]-Optimus Prime Dies-Transformers Movie |

Ah, forgot about Ripley. Good one. Gunshot death-how did this one not get used. or the ending Pacino-DeNiro faceoff. Even the Bank Robbery in Dark Knight was top notch as well. Last edited by stevew : 05-12-2009 at 01:00 AM. |

Did anyone take "Jack" (DiCaprio) dying in Titanic? That could have fit well in either best death in a dramatic, or most heroic death.

I think these are things we knew ahead of time, but DeTox wanted to do something different. I would actually say that the time dragged on because of people not picking during the day on weekdays moreso than the weekends being a problem. The weekend are typically slow.

And for people that want ot look at it, the spreadsheet is at The FOFC TV & Movie Death Draft -- some of the selections may not be obvious, unfortunately. I jus tput the name of the person that died and the movie. Sometimes I didn't know the name of the person. If the first post is up to date, you may want to cross reference with that.
