Mustang · 03-04-2010, 12:11 AM

So, I need an actress. I think this one is perfect for my studio given her action orientated girls, she has won an Oscar, plus she is probably odd enough to work with Tarantino...

5.8 Angelina Jolie, Lead Actress

Historical Nation Draft Voting - Front Office Football Central

I went and looked at the nation draft thread from last year that Abe won and Larry ran.

Izulde · 03-04-2010, 12:14 AM

5.9. - Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time Series - Intellectual Property

15 books in the series translates to 15 epic movies, potentially on the LotR scale. Francis Ford Coppola and Ridley Scott have shown that they have the chops to handle an epic scale such as this and we view this series as our cash cow. Lots of fans of the book series and the genre right now is hot, hot, hot. See LotR, Chronicles of Narnia, just to name a couple.

Abe Sargent · 03-04-2010, 12:14 AM

Wow, hello old school. My only draft

Izulde · 03-04-2010, 12:16 AM

Abe, I forgot to put series in there in my hurry to get the pick up. Is the edit allowed or no?

That was going to be my #1 choice until I read that they were actually filming the series now so, I didn't want the voters to get pissy.

I went back and forth on this for the longest time. But on the other hand, the rights were purchased in 2008. It's 2010 and they still don't have a writer or a director for the first film, as far as I know, so it's still in Pre-Production.

For that epic a series, I'll roll the dice on it.

Mustang · 03-04-2010, 12:25 AM

Disregard my previous comment. It wasn't that that was filming now. Something else.

DrAFTjunkie · 03-04-2010, 12:38 AM

5.10 Victor Fleming, Director, Golden Age
Had a large body of work, but what deserves mentioning is the fact that he directed "Gone With the Wind" and "The Wizard of Oz" in the same year--both of which drastically changed the face of American cinema. If I want anyone to direct a profitable big budget film and have it stand the test of time, it'd be this guy. Imagine what he could do with today's technology...

6.1 Will Smith, Lead Actor
How many actors do you know that you can cast in a comedy, a drama, an action adventure, or a biopic and expect an average 132 million dollar box office take, and, depending on the movie, Oscar consideration to boot. If I'm starting a studio, Will Smith is my moneymaker.

Izulde · 03-04-2010, 12:39 AM

Great picks.

CrimsonFox · 03-04-2010, 12:39 AM

Is Will Smith gonna play the maid or the munchkin?

JediKooter · 03-04-2010, 12:40 AM

Two pretty good picks.

DrAFTjunkie · 03-04-2010, 12:41 AM

The Scarecrow. That'd be cool as hell.

CrimsonFox · 03-04-2010, 12:41 AM

yeah I like the Fleming pick a lot. Almost took him a couple picks ago but held out for the acting talent.

CrimsonFox · 03-04-2010, 12:42 AM

LOL I can totally see that, talking trash to Dorothy.

Abe Sargent · 03-04-2010, 12:42 AM

Izulde, Mustang and CF are all here right now, so we could do this one two three...

Izulde · 03-04-2010, 12:43 AM

Give me a bit here.

CrimsonFox · 03-04-2010, 12:43 AM

please stay away from my picks

Mustang · 03-04-2010, 12:43 AM

I would think he'd punch her in the face and say "Welcome to Oz!!"

I hate Independence Day

CrimsonFox · 03-04-2010, 12:45 AM

hate it too. I was thinking more of the Smith type of schtick from Fresh Prince of Bel Air where he'd try to overexplain everything.

Lathum · 03-04-2010, 12:48 AM

I seriously considered WIl Smith

Mustang · 03-04-2010, 12:49 AM

Hopefully Izulde doesn't snag my pic...

My midnight snack is calling.

CrimsonFox · 03-04-2010, 12:50 AM

mine is in the oven right now

Izulde · 03-04-2010, 12:55 AM

Shit my brain's locking up.

Mustang · 03-04-2010, 12:56 AM

Just take Shia and be done with it.

CrimsonFox · 03-04-2010, 12:56 AM

"Oil can!"

CrimsonFox · 03-04-2010, 12:56 AM

WHAT IS this with Shia? LOL

JediKooter · 03-04-2010, 12:56 AM

It's cool if you take Jim Varney.

Mustang · 03-04-2010, 12:57 AM

We did a sexiest person draft (or something like that) and the first pick was Shia Labeouf.

CrimsonFox · 03-04-2010, 12:58 AM

Well for what it's worth I think is a very good young actor. He just hasn't gotten into great scripts.

Izulde · 03-04-2010, 01:01 AM

Okay got a pick. Just double-checking to make sure it hasn't been taken.

6.2 Robin Williams - Lead Actor
He can do comedy, drama, and voice work. That type of versatility goes a long way to allowing us to create a variety of different films.

Izulde · 03-04-2010, 01:04 AM

And I just fucked my draft with a miscast, but oh well. I do it every draft.

CrimsonFox · 03-04-2010, 01:04 AM

Robin Williams can do comedy?

JediKooter · 03-04-2010, 01:05 AM

Should have taken Jim Varney...

Izulde · 03-04-2010, 01:05 AM

Heh I should have put him Supporting. ANd i realized that .02 seconds after I hit Submit. Fuck.

Mustang · 03-04-2010, 01:06 AM

6.3 - Walter Brennan, Supporting Actor (Golden Age)

Izulde · 03-04-2010, 01:07 AM

Or not picked him at all. I had a ton of other picks I could've made that would have been better.

CrimsonFox · 03-04-2010, 01:07 AM

6.4 George Clooney - Lead Actor
