Box Office Draft 2024 Thread

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

I honestly have no idea what to take here, so I'm just gonna take something that I'm actually interested in seeing, even though I feel like it will probably be delayed.

What was your top few movies of 2023 D1

In no order

The Covenant
The Holdovers

I'm sure I'm forgetting some stuff.

I suspect Poor Things would be right up there, but I haven't seen it yet. Quite a lot of movies I still need to see actually.

I guess I'll take Venom 3

A Quiet Place: Day One

I had hope that this was going to somehow fall to me. Shocked that it lasted this long.

I have 0 confidence in this, but music bios always have breakout potential, so who knows.
