The What Do You Wanna Watch? Fantasy Movie Game is back for another year. Ashley and Dylan picked 8 films and two wild card films each from 2023 on the draft episode of What Do You Wanna Watch? with another 3 films each to be selected later in the year. Check out their selections below and let us who you think will win in the comments or on Twitter.

The Rules

The scores for each film are based on the Rotten Tomato’s critics average rating. For every 0.1 above 6.0 a film gets, it gets one point. For every 0.1 below 6.0, it loses one point. If a movie doesn’t release in the year, it is treated as getting a 6.0, and therefore 0 points.

There are also special rules to make certain points worth more or less. If a film scores above a 8.0, every 0.1 above 8.0 is worth two points instead of one. Meanwhile, f0r every 01. below 4.0, the loss of points is only half a point.

Finally, there are bonus points based on worldwide box office ranking. If the film ranked is ranked 1 for the year worldwide, it earns 20 points. Rank 2 earns 18 points and so on through to rank 10 earning 2 points.

Any negative critic scores for the wildcard entries don’t count.

Whoever’s film picks net the most points wins.
