Great format, serves little purpose

“The format of the serpentine-style drafting “game” is excellent. I love rules and there are plenty of them here. I’ve listened to some good episodes (Pixar, Best Actress films, Spielberg, etc.) and don’t mind the length. Ultimately, this podcast exists to affirm or challenge ones own opinions on films because the final list doesn’t really matter (Billy Wilder, Audrey Hepburn). The format of this game is excellent and should be lauded—what a great premise. Clay is the stronger commissioner because he has seen more films. Ryan has never seen anything but will promise to consider watching them maybe sure okay; his form of commentary is also just saying semi-big words that, together, mean absolutely nothing. Some GMs are charming (Drea Clark, Chris Feil, Wesley Morris, etc.) and some—most—are really obnoxious. I’ve decided to unsubscribe after the 2023 Mega Draft because the tension between GMs who take the draft seriously and the ones who don’t really highlighted how pointless the lists actually are. Also, I’m not too keen on how often the drafters skew white, male, and film bro. Basically, I’ve had enough.”

“Clay's right to be proud/defensive of his format - it's nuts but pretty much perfect. Screen drafts have been a highlight of Vidiots Video Store Show for years, and now they have a room to breath, with guest GMs and Clay and Ryan providing commentary. This is really exciting, and episode...”Read full review »

“Expectations may have been too high, but... painful how slowly this dragged on. Just going over the simple rules went on forever. Also could not have disagreed more with the movie picks, but not leaving a poor rating based on that. Usually I’d give a second or even a third chance for a podcast to...”Read full review »
