The Movie Draft Podcast

Jonathan Fujii joins Ben and Ethan for what is perhaps the scariest podcast episode EVER! Not because horror movies are (re)drafted with new categories and not because some critical drafting mistakes are made, but because 'Other Mommy' is reviewed! Jonathan and Ethan both try to explain the plot of 'Other Mommy' to Ben in varying degrees of success and praise. It's a scary sight to behold...

Legacy Sequels are ALL the rage right now. But they have been for quite a while... and some are *definitely* better than others. This time, instead of an Auction Style Draft, we decided to "collaborate" and figure out the 11 best (?) Legacy Sequels of all time! Ryan McQuade joins Ethan and Ben for a discussion about 'The Color of Money', who the king of Legacy Sequels is, and what even qualifies as a Legacy Sequel (one of our picks might surprise you...)!

A movie hasn't won the "Big 5" at the Oscars since 1991, but can it be done again?
