7. The French Connection SE

Bringing up Baby 2 Disc SE

#7: Mystery Science Theater: Manos: Hands of Fate.

This is from TV series (which I've already picked), but it's also a single disc. Is that okay?

7. Ingmar Bergman Collection
This will be my one boxset, and I believe that none of the titles in the set are re-issues of previously-released DVDs.

I think MST3K single disc should count as movies...Manos is a movie....just hosted by a tv show.

North By Northwest

7. Gandhi

I will allow MST3K discs to count as movies.

Thanks Groucho!

I'm anal too(I think that most DVD collectors are). My 7th pick is Donnie Darko, not Donny Darko.

wait wait - now I think it's UP The River... I'm confused.

7. Once Upon A Time In America

You're allowing "Marx Brothers Silver Screen Collection"? Those movies were released separately before that collection came out.

Not in those editions.

7th round: Forrest Gump

7th Round Pick: The Beyond LE TIN

I propose we take two picks Friday, and then start the voting Monday morning.

I think that would be a good idea... that would give Groucho the weekend to set up the bracket.

that would work really well for me too...leaving for a trip sunday, and not sure how when i'll be able to get a computer

I can't say I'm in favor of that idea. It would give people who can post immediately at 9am an even bigger advantage than they already have.

Also, I may not do the bracket immediately. Since it looks like we'll have several players who have dropped out, I was thinking about having a one-day "Trading Day." I would put all the DVDs drafted by dropped players in a "pool" and players could trade any ONE of their DVDs for one in the pool.

What do people think of that idea?

Not sure of the trading thing... I think we really need players for all 32 collections - especially to make the bracket work right.

Would you consider, If it comes down to it, letting players manage 2 teams? I would be interested in taking over the collections for spartanstew, Anomaly, or jigga6286 (in that order).

7. Predator (2-disc)

Groucho:
- I am not in favor of managing two teams;
- I am in favor of allowing two picks per day (maybe unitl everyone has 10 picks);
- I kinda like the trading idea; however, I propose that we should go in reverse draft order to even out the playing field (i.e. Team 32 picks first, team 31 picks second).

By the way, I am havign a lot of fun with this--thanks for setting it up.

rebel without a cause (wb 2 disc se)

Groucho - Maybe you should update the thread title to read "The DVDTalk DVD Draft Game - Alternates Needed!"

This will get those who thought they could not participate because it was full enter the thread and grab one of the dead collections.
