17 Round Draft. Up to 15 actors, one writer, one director.

Typical clock rules apply.

At the end of the draft they'll be a 24 hour add/drop period.

After that you send me your pitches and we vote on them.

Who's in, who's got rules they want to suggest, etc.

In so far

Sportsguy
Solly
Sharky
Lizzy
Mayhem
Dev?
Dead?

[The Jewish Cunthead]

I'm in. What about an actor who also writes and directs?

The past two times we did this, the rule was that if you wanted to use a guy in multiple roles, you had to declare it at the time and forfeit your next pick. But I'm willing to discuss this as well.

Yep.

[MayhemNX]

In.

[Road Warrior Shark]

Probably need 8 to make a showdown really work. Fishy and Dev are usually good for one of these. Maybe Eco or Angle too?

[DevSop]

Does it have to be an original idea or can we adapt an existing property? And can that property have existed as a movie if we do a different storyline?

Both of these questions concern me as well

You can adapt an existing property, and that property can have been a movie if you do a different story line. No straight shot for shot remakes.

Has this been done before? The overall concept.

Thank you.

[Deadly]

I might be in on this. I'll jump in if you need enough drafters to make the showdown work. I can bow out if needed too.

[Sportsguy]

If Dead and Dev are in, that makes 7. Need one more for Showdown purposes, Eco? Hodgey? Fire? Any volunteers?

[DevSop]

BC is considering.

[The Canadian Content]

I'm in.

Can you go back and cast Jessica Jones and then you were so close with Purple Man. You had the first name correct.

[Sportsguy]

With Hodgey in that makes 8. I can put up a thread tomorrow (Later this morning technically) and start clocks on Monday unless anyone has any objections?

I think you should give it another day or two to see if anyone else wants to join. The sign-up thread wasn't up very long.
