Wahlberg would make the perfect Rocky. Picture a cross between his characters from The Fighter and Invincible.

He is the perfect Rocky.

Like I said, I didn't need blockbuster, even at 1.1 and knew if I got my 2nd and 3rd choices, I'd be in damn good shape.

Back when the first draft was still ongoing I threw out the idea of a Pixar Oz to Grover. At that point he was already locked into his movie, but liked the idea so much that he went for it for this draft.

The best part of the pick is that you're tapping into a different pool of talent.

Indeed.

Not to mention I've had the entire cast lined up for nearly a week. I've been ready for this spin on the merry-go-round.

No worries, I forgot to hit send the first time. Been pretty slow at the bowling center, so I had a bit of free time.

I was thrilled when Norv mistakenly made 3 WC slots, I would have been able to cast all 5 main, but now I have to leave one out, but whom!?

Since nobody's casting little people, we're going to spend our 4 spots on casting the Lollipop Guild.

Edit: Phyllis Diller as the Wicked Witch. We're going for a different tone...

Toy Story 3 had a budget of $200 million, so that sounds about right.
Crazy first article I found said $75...

Sorry about the delays today. I was at school and my picks came up either when I was in class or when I was in transit to home.

Just regularly check the first page. I didn't make a spreadsheet this time because Norv is keeping good track of things.

alright, i'm hitting the sack (not our sack... though i wouldn't mind)

i'm gonna turn the clock off till manana. i really don't like skipping guys who need budgets. especially this late in the game

if Izulde shows feel free to carry on my wayward sons

Because there is no way in all the various fantastic, folkloric, and mythological representations of the bad underworld that I'm going to let this budget get any lower.
