Box Office Draft 2024 Thread
So starting up the thread. I'll edit this (or talk eyebooger into editing this) later for more information but I wanted to get this started.
Proposed rules:
- No January movies
-10 teams, 8 picks per team (no January and maybe still a reduced number of movies?)
-$325m cap on each pick (Maybe move this?)
-Snake draft of the ABBABABAB variety
-Most North American box office at the end of January 2024 wins
Note: If your movie gets (1) moved to 2023 or (2) does not get a theatrical release or (3) gets a simultaneous streaming/theatrical release (be wary of Netflix films!) (I think we need to get rid of this one for this year, too many high profile simultaneous streaming releases last year), you may pick a movie that went unpicked, but it must be at least two weeks from release.
For substitutions only: $250m cap if its a 1st round pick, $150m cap for a round 2 pick, $100m cap for round 3 & 4, $75m for round 5 & 6, $70m cap for round 7 & 8, and $50m cap for round 9 & 10. I lowered all of these a bit.
If we want to discuss rules quoting them from last time
100% said they were in for 2024

The Amateur and Death of Unicorn aren’t coming out this year
I’ll take
Babygirl
The Fire Inside
As replacements
I guess I'll replace Wolfs with A Complete Unknown. Might be able to add an extra $10m or so lol.
Some spectacular bombs this year. Joker 2 not even making $60m has to be an all-timer.
Are we doing this again for 2025 or is the interest not there anymore?
I’m in
I guess I have a delayed movie too in Karate Kid so I'll pick up whatever Homestead is since that seems to be the only eligible wide release left.
I'd be in again to pick some movies.
I would do it again. That being said if we do it again there is no interest in repicking. I do like an early look at the slate of movies.
i would be in again.
