That was easily two of the best reviews battling it out in that last match. Like the comments said, it was too bad only one could get through… but that one happened to be Kasper Gutman . So congrats! You’ve made it to the next round. And speaking of, Round 1 has officially (and finally) ended! A couple weeks ago, I asked if I should post the identities of the Fallen battlers at the end of the rounds or wait until the very...
What an interesting battle! Hayley had a strong lead, but suddenly Karl Freund jumped up out of nowhere and caught up. But in the end, Hayley still kept her lead and won the round. Congrats! Just a couple more battles before the end of the round, guys and gals! And we’ll finally be able to move on–which word on the street has it is a reason voting has sunk lately (taking too long). But for this next battle, we’re looking at...
I’ve noticed voting seems to be waning a bit lately. Is it burnout or are y’all just busy? Let me know! Anyway, the last battle was a tight race the entire time, never staying much more than a couple votes’ difference. But in the end, Zelda’s Kid Sister nabbed the win and will be moving on to the next round. Congrats! We have to skip yet another battle and go ahead to the one after, this time looking at the one...
It was a pretty tight race, but Pinocchio_Liez took the win and will move on to the next round. Congrats! We’re almost there, guys and gals… the end of Round 1 is in sight. But there is still about a week of it left, and I’m going to have to skip another battle for now and come back to it. This time we’re looking at the one film I actually apologized to the contestants for when I gave them the title. That’s...
I’m pretty sure that was the lowest vote count of the round so far. Is it a weekend thing? But anyway, despite coming into the game late, R.L. Logan took the win by quite a large margin. Congrats! Similarly, this next round also includes a replacement contestant for somebody else that had to drop out. And we’re looking at the next western of the tournament, Once Upon a Time in the West. Read, vote, comment, enjoy! You have until...
Now that’s what I’m talkin’ about! It really came down to the wire on this one, as Eyes Wide Open made a huge come-back and ended up tying the score right up to the end. And in the end, it was Eyes Wide Open who won it out by a single vote. Real underdog story there. Congrats! For the next battle, we’re skipping back a bit and hitting up the one we had to skip a while back. Since the skip, one of the contestants had to...
I’ll be honest yet again… the results of that last battle shocked me. Not at the winner, but that it was such a decisive winner. I figured there would be much more of a battle there. Anyway, congrats goes out to Fox Mulder, who will move on to the next round! And we have officially made it halfway through Round 1! For this next battle, we move from classic to modern-day ‘eh’ with romantic comedy,
Despite the gutsy move to give The Little Mermaid a negative review, it just wasn’t enough for Deems Taylor. So Botch Casually will move on to the next round. For this next battle, we’re looking at the second Hitchcock of the tournament, Rope. And I can say this with honesty: This is one of the battles I’ve been waiting for. I believe this will probably be one of the toughest ones to vote on (depending on...
Ouch. That last battle had a pretty clear winner from early on. And with that, The Honorary Swede moves on to Round 2! For this next battle, we get the second animated flick of the tournament–Disney classic, The Little Mermaid. Read, vote, comment, enjoy! You have until Tuesday. NOTE: I totally...
What a controversial battle! And a tight race there at the end! But in the end, in literally the last minutes before midnight, Dr. Richard Thornton came out on top by about 2 votes and will be moving on to Round 2! Congrats! And thank you to everybody who commented and critiqued, anonymously or otherwise. I do ask that you do not actually insult the contestants, however. Otherwise, great stuff. For today’s battle, I actually had to...
