Movie Character discussion

[DMT]

James Bond #1 overall...REACH

[DMT]

Ah, crap. Should I delete my comment from the draft thread?

Yea, otherwise it might get more confusing.

By adding the synopsis it will be interesting to see how different people approach their character selection and the roles they assign them. For example, now that Johnny has taken Bond, does that mean he's going to take the easy path by adding another chapter to the series, or is 007 merely going to be a diversion?

I like the format Johnny used to include the actor and the movie(s). Hopefully we can get the IMG issue resolved quickly.

ETA: Although I'm not really in favor of creating the synopsis as we go along because I think it will be more restrictive in terms of where we want to go with our stories. In other words, it's harder to create a cohesive and interesting story when we don't yet know the characters involved. Each of us can decide how we want to proceed in that regard.

[DMT]

So when we pick someone does that actor have to be in one of the categories? Or can we just draft 12 of the same kind of character?

The categories are there to give ideas but feel free to pick any 12...however picking 12 of the same type will limit your storylines...unless you plan on something like The Expendables.

I'm going to do it that way just to keep myself interested. Without categories or restrictions (apart from the basics) there is little chance anyone will be restricted, no matter how they plan to draft.

This should be a bit of a lark.

EDIT: I thought we weren't doing categories? Just letting people draft the players they want would seem to be the most fun in the long run.

Maybe one movie would be a bit cleaner?

1.01 James Bond | Actor: Sean Connery | Movie: Goldfinger

I possibly got the top 3 GSAT in that draft, along with Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones.

Sigh, I really miss that dancing banana.

Maybe one movie would be a bit cleaner ... even though the whole series is now off limits to me right?

Hmm, I kind of have no idea what's going on here. Good thing I don't pick until much later.

Just read post #1 in the draft thread...very few restrictions...pick 12 characters & write a synopsis.

Either way should work...most characters will only have 1 movie anyways.

Meh, not a Bond fan. Is it just me? Probably.

I was never a big fan either, but I thought Casino Royale was great.
