Tournament: Greatest. Character. Ever.

[The Cartoon]

Well after 1200 hopeful characters and people, we've managed to narrow it down to the 128 best. Before, we were just in the qualifying rounds. Now is when it counts. I've created an actual bracket for the contest. The rounds can be found here:

CURRENT TOURNEY BRACKET (http://challonge.com/tzgce)

I worry that some of you might not like the single-elimination bracket system. But I figure that we're at the point in the contest where every character is amazing. And in the long run, there will only be one winner. And I'm in the spirit of NCAA tourney. I'm in bracket-mode. The match-ups are completely, 100% random. I'm going to give you guys a day to talk and speculate about the matches. Have fun. ^_^ The game will start tomorrow.

[SpideyFan914]

Not bad, actually! My only "BLEEP IT!" moment was when I saw Indiana Jones v. William Shakespeare right off the bat. Seriously, BLEEP IT!!! I love Shakes, but Indy's gotta go on....

[cradleman]

Not bad, actually! My only "BLEEP IT!" moment was when I saw Indiana Jones v. William Shakespeare right off the bat. Seriously, BLEEP IT!!! I love Shakes, but Indy's gotta go on....
how about Stan vs. Indy in round 3?

[SpideyFan914]

how about Stan vs. Indy in round 3?

Hate that too, but at least it's Round Three.

EDIT: I just checked, and you're wrong. Indy wouldn't meet Stan 'til Round Five, and Stan will be meeting Shaggy before then, so they may never meet.

[The Cartoon]

And we begin!

Round 1:

Match 1:

Dr. Fate
http://www.heroicfineart.com/catalog/images/Timm_%5BHandOfFate%5D_Dr_Fate_(Bust)_OBG.jpg

vs.

Dr. Doom
http://quityourdayjob.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/dr-doom.jpg

Match 2:

Simba

vs.

Barney Fife
http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_E8BpJEni77I/TOGOsQ5rJzI/AAAAAAAANfg/HXH3eH07TD0/s400/barney-fife.jpg

____________________________________________________________

I encourage you guys to add explanations to your votes.

Match 1: I vote Dr. Doom. I kinda want to vote Dr. Fate since he probably won't do as well. But I'm kinda surprised he made it as far as he did. Dr. Doom is the better character, and much more significant.

Match 2: Without a doubt, I vote Barney Fife. I've said in the past how he's my favorite TV character of all time, and I'm stunned that he's managed to make it this far. But I'll always try to make him get a little further since it's tough for a slightly obscure character to do so well. Plus, we have a lot of Disney characters and Simba is great but not one of my very favorites.

[cradleman]

match one: doom, of course

match two: Barney Fife. hilarious and deserving of advancing(and not obscure, thecartoon, he's by far Andy Griffith Show's best character, and it's one of the most famous tv shows ever)

[The Cartoon]

Yeah, I guess by obscure, I mean that not too many people here have seen the show.

[ShadowStar]

For the first one: Doctor Doom. Archenemy of the Fantastic Four (especially Reed Richards), ruler of Latveria and overall a great villain. One of the powerhouses of the Marvel universe. None of the heroes are keen to mess with him. I too would have liked to see Doctor Fate advance because he was showcased very well in the DCAU and Oded Fehr's voice was perfect for him, but Doctor Doom is the better character.

For the second one: Simba. The Lion King is one of Disney's best and Simba's story is so sad. The part where his father dies, and later when Mufasa appears in the clouds... Those are some of the most iconic moments in any animated movie. And Simba was the centrepiece in the classic Circle of Life opening sequence, lest you forget. A fun character and a great hero to root for.

[Blankments]

I honestly don't care about the first match. The second one goes to Simba for me. I like Barney but see, Simba is the main character of one of Disney's greatest. He's a fun, yet great, character.

[HEATXZ]

Match 1
Dr.Fate because he has magic powers and a cool helmet :anime:
Match 2
Simba because Lion King was a great movie :anime:

[Gold Guy]

Fate and Barney. Dr Doom does not need the help, and Barney is just a really funny guy.

[SpideyFan914]

DOCTOR DOOM!!! He is, after all, my favorite supervillain of all time! All he really wants is power, with all humanity pushed so deep beneath the surface that he rarely ever allows it show (except for on those very few occasions, usually dealing with his mother). He doesn't have any powers, yet no one dares to defy him simply because of his vastly superior intellect. And, best of all, DOOM TALKS IN THE THIRD PERSON!!!

And Simba, for being such a great and lovable character! If Hamlet is gone ( :crying: ), then Simba must move on!


By the way, The Cartoon, quick question - ties are inevitable. In the one-on-one matches, how are we going to break them?

[The Cartoon]

I've been thinking about that. :/ I might have a non-biased 3rd party person determine the winner, or just use a randomizer. Unless anyone has a better idea.

[SpideyFan914]

Non-biased third party works. The best TB system is probably Johnny's, where he holds his vote specifically for ties, but I don't think anyone's going to offer to follow through with that....

[The Cartoon]

Yeah, I know that's the best way. But I can't resist voting. :p Hopefully there won't be too many ties.

[Superpan]

Dr. Fate Partially because he's the underdog, parially because I'm currently reading All-Star Comics Archives, and partially because I think Doom's overrated. Not bad, just overrated.

Barney Fife Also because he's the underdog and I don't want to see Don Knotts' iconic role go down without a fight.

[The Cartoon]

Doctor Doom wins 4-3
Barney & Simba are tied 4-4

3rd party person picked...

Barney

Btw, for the 3rd party person, I'm making sure that they know both characters. And I promise you that I'm telling the truth about who they picked. Anyone who doesn't believe me, I'll take a screenshot. But I'd rather not go to the trouble.

Match 3:

Donald Duck
http://www.mainepuzzles.com/Images/Disney-Jigsaw-Puzzles/8111_Donald_Duck_Sketchbook_Jigsaw_Puzzle_md.jpg

vs.

Superman
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Superman_Posing.jpg

________________________________________________________

Match 4:

Two-Face
http://starsmedia.ign.com/stars/image/article/879/879644/two-face-dc-comics-20080605023653370_640w.jpg

vs.

Hobgoblin
http://www.spidervillain.com/Villains/Hobgoblin/HobgoblinMU.gif

________________________________________________________

I vote for Donald, my second favorite cartoon character of all time, in the first match. Superman is great, but I strongly favor Donald here. Second match I pick Two-Face. He's more iconic, and more interesting too in my opinion.

[cradleman]

Donald: possibly my favorite disney character. superman can be bland at times

Two-Face: he's definitely the more interesting and well-developed of the two

[HEATXZ]

Donald: Favorite Classic Disney character :anime:
Hobgoblin: Favorite Spiderman Goblin character :anime:

[Superpan]

Superman: I love Donald but come on...Superman is THE hero of our civilization! He stands for everything we value in an society and constantly inspires people to better themselves. Everyone can relate on some level to being percieved as being ineffectual, but deep down believeing we can ALL change the world for the better!

On a depressing note, my homeroom teacher can't tell the difference between Daffy Duck and Donald. Poor Donald.

Two-Face. NO CONTEST.

[ShadowStar]

Donald Duck for the first one. Same reason as cradleman really... I like Superman and I enjoyed his portrayal in JL/JLU, but even in Superman:TAS he was sometimes uninteresting.

The second one is a tough one for me but I'll go with Two-Face. Just so great in B:TAS, especially in the classic episode "Second Chance".

[SpideyFan914]

Superman in the first. I can't believe I'm saying this, but what Superpan said!

And Hobby in the second. Not 'cause he's better than Two-Face, but 'cause he at least deserves a pity vote.

[ShadowStar]

And Hobby in the second. Not 'cause he's better than Two-Face, but 'cause he at least deserves a pity vote.

I actually was this close to giving the vote to Hobgoblin, and not even for a pity vote.

[SpideyFan914]

I actually was this close to giving the vote to Hobgoblin, and not even for a pity vote.

Well, if you had, I'd've given my vote to Two-Face, so I guess it didn't really make a difference, lol.

[jph139]

Token vote for Superman because he's Superman.

(Just to keep the money rolling... or something...)

[Blankments]

First match, I'll go for Donald. I've always found Superman a boring character, and Donald's pretty awesome. Second match goes to Two-Face, easy. He's my favorite Batman villain ever.

[Gold Guy]

Superman and Hobgoblin.

Superman is just an icon, and I like Hobgoblin more than Two-Face.

[JasonFox]

Superman no doubt

Two-Face no doubt either.

[Superpan]

I can't believe I'm saying this, but what Superpan said!

Must...resist...temptation...to put in...sig...

[The Cartoon]

Superman and Donald were tied 5-5, and the 3rd party person voted Superman. :sad: Two-Face wins 7-2.

Pics coming later. Here are the matches for now:

Match 5:

Eeyore
http://www.performanceboats.com/gallery/data/500/eeyore.jpg

vs.

The Flash (Barry Allen)
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a6/Barryallen-kitson.JPG/236px-Barryallen-kitson.JPG (http://www.toonzone.net/wiki/File:Barryallen-kitson.JPG)

Match 6:

Steven Spielberg
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8f/Steven_Spielberg_1999.JPG/220px-Steven_Spielberg_1999.JPG (http://www.toonzone.net/wiki/File:Steven_Spielberg_1999.JPG)

vs.

Captain Cold
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/bf/Flash182.jpg/250px-Flash182.jpg

[Superpan]

Alas, poor Donald....however, Superman's my (unrealistic) favorite to win...so yeah! :D

Eeyore. I like Barry Allen, but I can't help but love Eeyore. I mean...he's so depressing he just falls in rivers and can't get up. THAT'S a Jungian archetype. However, if Barry Allen wins, I wouldn't care.

Captain Cold. I know this is ironic, considering that I didn't vote for Flash, but..I just love this guy. He's just a criminal with a parka and a little snow pistol. Not a snow cannon, just an itty bitty snow pistol. He's also a villain with morals and the closest thing to a supervillain mob boss in comics. Whenever I think of a superpowered villain existing in our world, I think of him.

[SpideyFan914]

Eeyore, 'cause he's awesome!

And Spielberg, 'cause he ain't a bad guy and I still don't know hoot about Cold.

[cradleman]

Flash and Cold

[HEATXZ]

Flash- Because he has super speed :anime:
Captain Cold- Because he has ice guns :anime:

[ShadowStar]

Eh...

Eeyore and Captain Cold, I guess.

Nothing against Barry Allen, but I'm more familiar with Eeyore. My only exposure to Barry is "Requiem for a Scarlet Speedster!" and while that was a great episode, there wasn't enough Barry for me to put him above Eeyore.

[JasonFox]

Flash


Spielberg

[Gold Guy]

The Flash, because he's cool, and Capt. Cold, because Spielberg isn't really a character, IMO.

[Blankments]

The Flash, because he's cool, and Capt. Cold, because Spielberg isn't really a character, IMO.

This.

[The Cartoon]

Forgot to vote. I vote for Eeyore and Captain Cold.

Flash wins 5-4. Cold wins 7-2. I hope all the comic characters don't start dominating the whole contest. I'm already nervous about that after Donald's lost. Of course, that was Superman. Not many characters probably would've beaten him. Anyways:

Match 7:

Prince Zuko
http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS85j0ZgQmjdUpi5owyJ_kIom32gfn-rogcvZWlq00hNs80O7yg4A&t=1

vs.

Albus Dumbledore
http://media.giantbomb.com/uploads/0/3683/1100988-albus_dumbledore_1_super.jpg
_________________________________________________________

Match 8:

Heath Ledger's Joker
http://assets.nydailynews.com/img/2008/01/24/amd_heathjoker.jpg

vs.

Mary Jane Watson
http://www.atomicpopcorn.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/kirsten-dunst-spider-man-3-228x300.jpg
_________________________________________________________

The first one is extremely difficult, but I'll go with Dumbledore, one of the wisest and bravest characters of all time. Zuko is great too, but out of all the Avatar characters, I'm pulling for Iroh. Second match, I'll go with Heath Ledger's Joker. I don't think Mary Jane is all that interesting.

[Blankments]

First match is easy. I vote Prince Zuko since, for one, I don't like Harry Potter and also, Zuko's my favorite character in Avatar. Second match, I vote Heath Ledger's Joker. Just chilling and made The Dark Knight even more fantastic than it would've been.

[cradleman]

pass on the first.

in the second i'll take MJ, as she's a good character in all media and i'd rather the all versions Joker advance later in this competition as opposed to a single version of him.

[JasonFox]

Dumbeldore

Heath Ledgers Joker is a given.

[HEATXZ]

Match 7
Zuko- For being a great character and having a great voice actor :anime:
MJ- For being a great Spiderman girlfriend,Heath Ledger Joker is good but we have the regular Joker later in the tournament

[Superpan]

Albus Dumbledore- Pure Awesome!

Mary Jane Watson- LOVE HER and that version of the Joker is redundant.

[SpideyFan914]

First one's tough, yeah, but I'm going with Zuko. Dumbledore's a great mentor character, and his developments post-mortem were actually pretty cool, but Zuko's the angry prince with a far more complex character.

As for the second, I gotta say Joker. Yeah, there's another version of him later in the comp, but come on now, why so serious about it?

[ShadowStar]

Dumbledore for the first one because I don't know Zuko.

Mary Jane for the second one because she's the most important Spider-Man supporting character, and because Heath Ledger's Joker, while menacing, wasn't playful enough. He wasn't the monster of mirthful mayhem that he should've been, just a cold and calculating crime lord.

[SpideyFan914]

Dumbledore for the first one because I don't know Zuko.

Really? You still haven't seen Avatar? It seems like the kind of show you would love - should definitely check it out!

[The Cartoon]

Dumbledore wins 4-3. Mary Jane and HL's Joker tie 4-4. Tiebreaker chooses The Joker.

Match 9:

Batman

vs.

Wishbone
http://www.gpb.org/files/national/wishbone_main.jpg
_____________________________________________________

I vote Scrooge in the first match even though he'll never win. He's one of my favorite characters ever. Second match, I easily choose Alfred.

[JasonFox]

Batman



Wishbone (Loved him as a kid)

[HEATXZ]

Match 9
Batman- Because he's DC greatest heroes
Match 10
Wishbone- Because he is a talking dog that goes into story books

[cradleman]

Batman for the first. no explanation needed

Wishbone for the second, i love to read and write, and wishbone is a huge part of that.

[Superpan]

Scrooge. See below

Wishbone. YAY CLASSIC LITERATURE!

[SpideyFan914]

I was going to give Scrooge a pity vote, but enough people are voting for him that I'll give it to Bats.

And Wishbone for the second because I said so.

[ShadowStar]

Batman, because I like him more than Scrooge, and Alfred, because I'm not familiar with Wishbone.

[Gold Guy]

Batman, because he's Batman, and Wishbone, because I liked his show.

[The Cartoon]

I'll go ahead and end these now since the matches are pretty much over. Batman wins 6-2 and surprisingly Wishbone also wins 6-2.

Match 11:

Iron Man
http://chud.com/articles/content_images/5/iron-man-movie-trailer-coming-soon.jpg

vs.

Willy Wonka

vs.

Rodan
http://images.wikia.com/godzilla/images/5/50/Rodan7.jpg
__________________________________________________________

I actually vote Willy Wonka in the first match. We have tons of comic characters, Iron Man is a bit overrated, and Wonka is just awesome. Second match, I vote The Joker.

[HEATXZ]

Match 11
Ironman- Because he has a robot suit :anime:

Match 12
Rodan- Because he is a giant monster :anime:

[JasonFox]

Match 11
Ironman- Because he has a robot suit :anime:

Match 12
Rodan- Because he is a giant monster :anime:

This!

[Blankments]

First round, I vote Iron Man. Sorry, but he's my second favorite superhero. Second round goes to the Joker, just because I know who he is.

[Superpan]

Willy Wonka- Yeah, WONKA!

Joker- He'll get a pass this round....but if Heath Ledger's Joker passes on next round, one of these Jokers is going to have to go down.

[ShadowStar]

For the first one: Iron Man, because he's a great superhero. I enjoyed some episodes of the 90s cartoon. Willy Wonka has a nice mysteriousness about him, but I prefer Iron Man. Tony Stark's ordeal with his heart made for a great origin and his subsequent battles with foes like Mandarin and Fin Fang Foom make him a fun superhero.

For the second one: the Joker, because the Mark Hamill Joker is one of the greatest cartoon characters ever. Gleeful, demonic, crazy, hilarious and a joy to watch.

[cradleman]

Wonka: funny and awesome

Rodan: pity vote

[SpideyFan914]

WILLY WONKA, WILLY WONKA, THE AMAZING CHOCOLATEER! WILLY WONKA, WILLY WONKA, EVERYBODY GIVE A CHEER!
WILLY WONKA, HERE HE IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS!!!!
*cue explosions and flames that were definitely not supposed to happen*

That's, uh, my vote....


And The Joker, because I have no idea who Rodan is. Besides, we've gotta push Joker until he faces Batman! 'Cause that's just cool!

[Gold Guy]

Iron Man because he is an awesome hero.

Joker because he is an awesome insane villain.

[jph139]

Bonus vote for Wonka; gotta love him, in both films and the book to boot.

[The Cartoon]

Wonka and Iron Man tied 5-5. Third party person picked Wonka. Joker wins 6-3.

Match 13:

Santa Claus
http://www.christmaswow.com/Images/Santa-claus.jpg

vs.

Black Manta
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/8/88/Manta_batman.gif

Match 14:

Slade
http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20091025031735/teentitans/images/thumb/e/ea/Slade.jpg/292px-Slade.jpg

vs.

Human Torch
http://www.digitalbusstop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Human-Torch.jpg
______________________________________________________

First match, I choose Santa Claus. I do love Black Manta, but I'm literally obsessed with Christmas, and I love Santa. Second match, both characters are overrated in my opinion. But I'll go with the Human Torch.

[SpideyFan914]

What a coincidence - I just saw Manta's episode of Young Justice about half an hour ago! And seriously, I have no idea why everyone loves him so much. Maybe it was just a lame portrayal, but he was really generic. So I'm going with Santy Claus!

And Torch, for the second. 'Cause I don't know who Slade is.

[HEATXZ]

Match 13
Black Manta- Because he has a cool helmet and can shoot lasers from his eyes :anime:

Match 14
Human Torch- Because he can turn into fire

[Superpan]

Santa Claus- I LOVE THIS GUY!

Human Torch- Because Slade's name is DEATHSTROKE! Besides, I never figured out his motivations, while I've actully enjoyed the Human Torch.

[cradleman]

Santa: of course

Human Torch: RIP. :crying:

[ShadowStar]

Santa Claus for the first one, of course!

For the second one, pity vote for Slade. Human Torch is probably the better character overall, but Slade deserves SOME credit for being one of the most ruthless, menacing, creepy villains I've seen in a DC cartoon. Episodes like "Haunted" show exactly why he's deserving of a spot in this thread.

[Blankments]

Even though I don't think Santa is a character, ;) I'll vote for him. And second match goes to Slade. I've always found the Human Torch a bit generic.

[Gold Guy]

Black Manta: A usually cool villain.

Slade: Liked him in Teen Titans.

[Superpan]

Here's what my next few picks are for this rounds

Obi-Wan Kenobi. One of my favorite characters since I was 8. Love this guy.

Sylvester. Love the Looney Tunes and hate Venom with a passion.

James Bond. It's James Bond. While not neccessarily a heroic figure, he's far more interesting than Poirot.

Han Solo. It's Han Solo.

Dracula. While not my favorite villain, if you asked me to pick the epitome of fictional evil, it would this......monster.

Goofy. A-YUP! GUHUHUHU! This has been a bad online impression of Goofy.

[The Cartoon]

Sorry for missing two days, I've been busy.

Santa wins 6-2, and Human Torch wins 5-3.

Match 15:

Obi-Wan Kenobi
http://www.unusualleading.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/obi-wan-kenobi.jpg

vs.

Fred Flintstone
http://www.sprintusers.com/wallpapers/uploadedfiles/121306Fred%20Flintstone.jpg

Match 16:

Sylvester
http://media.comicvine.com/uploads/0/40/161086-145257-sylvester-pussycat_large.png

vs.

Venom
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/68/Aliensymbiote.jpg (http://www.toonzone.net/wiki/File:Aliensymbiote.jpg)

_________________________________________________________

I vote Fred in the first match, but I'd be fine if either of them moved on. Second match, it's not even close for me. Sylvester since I hate Venom.

[SpideyFan914]

Fred Flinstone, though like The Cartoon, I won't mind too much if Obi Wan wins instead.

And Venom, 'cause I don't hate him.

[cradleman]

Um, Cartoon, Torch won the last match 5-3, not Slade. i assume that's what you meant to put

Obi-Wan: he was cool in the originals, and easily the best part of the prequels, one of few awesome characters in those movies

Sylvester: sufferin succotash, who would vote against sylvester?

[HEATXZ]

Match 15
Fred Flintstone- He is a classic :anime:
Match 16
This is hard,I'm going with Sylvester :anime:

[Blankments]

I'll vote for Fred Flinstone. As cool as Obi Wan is, Star Wars can be represented by another character. Second round is tough, but Sylvester's a classic while Venom is just an evil-twin like character.

[Gold Guy]

Pass on the first match.

Venom, because he's a cool villain.

[ShadowStar]

Fred Flintstone for the first one. Loved The Flintstones when I was younger, more than I ever liked Star Wars.

The second one is hard but I'm going with Venom because he's probably my favourite Spider-Man villain. It was a really hard choice though.

[The Cartoon]

Fred wins 5-2 and Sylvester wins 5-3.

Match 17:

Hercule Poirot

http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EzjGcmWh7KA/S94GUHTus9I/AAAAAAAABFc/XTIpapB6vGY/s1600/20100503+Han+Solo.jpg
_______________________________________________________

For the first match, I easily choose Hercule Poirot. He's my favorite literature character of all time, and an excellent character. Pleasently surprised that he's made it this far, but he'll have trouble against James Bond. The second match is much more difficult for me. I love Han Solo and I'd love to see him advance, but Will Smith is one of my favorite actors and a great guy, so I'll go with him.

[HEATXZ]

Hercule Poirot and Will Smith because he is a great actor :anime:

[cradleman]

Bond: cool as Poirot is, he just can't touch the awesomeness that is James Bond

Han Solo: he's Han fricken Solo. i love Will Smith too, but he can't compete with Solo

[SpideyFan914]

Bond. James Bond. Maybe it's unfair since I'm unfamiliar with Poirot, but I love James Bond and at this point in the game I tend to like to eliminate the guys I don't know.

Han Solo for the second, no questions asked.

[ShadowStar]

Bond, because he's awesome. Poirot is an impressive detective, but Bond is a really cool secret agent. And he's British, like me. :p

Will Smith, because he tends to bring an element of fun to his films, and because I'm not that big on Star Wars.

[Superpan]

Bond. James Bond. BECAUSE....


Han Solo. Cooler than James Bond. Why is he not sweeping this?

[Blankments]

James Bond because I know who he is and Han Solo because he's actually a character.

[The Cartoon]

James Bond wins 5-2 and Han Solo wins 4-3.

Match 19:

Dracula

vs.

Anguirus
http://images.wikia.com/cloverfield/images/8/8f/Anguirusawesome.jpg
_______________________________________________________

First match I'm actually going to choose Dracula, but it's close. Both are very important characters, but Dracula is a little more classic. Second match I vote Goofy without any doubt at all. Anguirus is fine, but kinda just a random Godzilla character and nowhere near as great as Goofy.

[HEATXZ]

Match 19
Mario- Because he is a video game icon :anime:
Match 20
Anguirus- Because he is a giant dinosaur :anime:

[ShadowStar]

Dracula for the first one. I'd say that an icon of both literature and mythology with a status like his trumps that of a video game icon.

Goofy for the second one, because I don't know who the other guy is.

[SpideyFan914]

Dracula and Goofy, both hands-down, both no explanation required.

[cradleman]

Dracula: duh

Anguirus: pity vote for Godzilla's sidekick, that somehow made the tournament when Big-G himself didn't

[Gold Guy]

Mario because he is an iconic hero.

Goofy because he needs more votes.

[Superpan]

Dracula. I would argue he is THE fictional epitome of evil. Sure, I like other villains better, but if you wanted a character in your story to take down the most evil thing ever....it has to be Dracula.

Goofy. Clear winner here and I kind've feel bad that Donald had to go so early.

[Blankments]

First match is tough, so I vote for Mario for a tie. Second match goes to Goofy since I know him.

[The Cartoon]

Mario wins 5-3 and Goofy wins 6-2.

Match 21:

vs.

Gandalf
http://www.filmofilia.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/gandalf.jpg
__________________________________________________________

I easily vote Mickey and Gandalf.

[Blankments]

Mario wins 5-3

Well... I feel idiotic. I was trying to make a tie, but I guess I voted for the wrong person? Serves me right for voting right after I woke up. :sad:

I vote for Mickey Mouse because he's a classic cartoon character, and Garfield, because I've never seen all of Lord of the Rings.

[cradleman]

Mickey easy.

and as much as i absolutely love Gandalf, how can you vote against Garfield? it's just not right

[cradleman]

Dracula won 5-3, not Mario. so blankments don't feel bad, your vote ended up just being a pity vote

[Gold Guy]

Mickey, because he is somewhat likable when he isn't tampering with magic, and Garfield, because he can be pretty funny.

[SpideyFan914]

Yeah, Dracula won, I think it's just a typo.

I vote for Mickey Mouse and Garfield. There aren't many I'd put above Green Arrow OR Gandalf, but those two definitely do it.... Man, it's gonna be intense next round....

[Six Year Man]

Mickey and Garfield.

[Superpan]

Mickey and Garfield. Me thinks it'll be a sweep in one area.

[ShadowStar]

Mickey Mouse and Gandalf, definitely.

Garfield's a bit boring compared to Gandalf. I like him, and he's funny, but I'm not convinced that he deserves to be perceived as an icon.

[HEATXZ]

Mickey Mouse and Garfield :anime:

[The Cartoon]

Mickey wins 9-0 and Garfield wins 7-2. Am I the only one who's absolutely shocked by that? I mean, I like Garfield but I kinda expected Gandalf to easily beat him. Even though Garfield is funny and iconic, there aren't many characters better than Gandalf imo.

Match 23:

Indiana Jones

vs.

Gorilla Grodd
http://cdn2.sbnation.com/imported_assets/681384/episode-2-gorilla-grodd-fac.jpg
__________________________________________________________

Two easy choices for me: Indy and Aang. I love both of the other characters, but those two are both really deserving.

[SpideyFan914]

One of very few matches in which I'd vote against the Bard. But alas, Indiana Jones is greater than any character Shakespeare has ever written about, and is my #2 for the comp. So Indy.

For the latter, I'm obviously going with Aang! It's so simple, it's laughable! I mean, Grodd's good and all, but Aang is AN AWESOME 12-YEAR-OLD!!

[cradleman]

Indy and Grodd

[HEATXZ]

Indiana Jones and Gorilla Grodd :anime:

[Blankments]

This is insanely easy. Indiana Jones, since he's actually a character and a darn good one at that, and Aang, because he's the main character on the greatest animated series ever and Grodd's just a minor Batman villian. Plus, I must avenge Zuko!

[Superpan]

William Shakespeare. Because I'm a counter-populist. :D Besides I'm going to a Shakespeare festival for my summer vacation.

Gorilla Grodd. Not because of the Avatar Policy, but because I like telepathic gorillas from DC Comics.

[ShadowStar]

Shakespeare, because I know Indiana Jones is popular, but there are other adventurers in fiction just like him and just because he's had more recognition than them, that doesn't make him better than them.

Grodd, because I haven't seen Avatar. "Secret Society" is the best ever super-villain team up story in animation, so Grodd deserves the vote.

[Blankments]

Not because of the Avatar Policy, but because I like telepathic gorillas from DC Comics.

Punny, much? :p

[Superpan]

Well...yes, somewhat punny. :D

Also, Grodd's not a minor Batman villain, he's a MAJOR Flash villain that was coopted by the Brave and the Bold to be a Batman villain.

[Blankments]

Also, Grodd's not a minor Batman villain, he's a MAJOR Flash villain that was coopted by the Brave and the Bold to be a Batman villain.

Oh, well, I don't read comic books at all. :sweat: But still, Aang's a super-awesome character! (And you guys already booted off Zuko...)

[SpideyFan914]

Grodd, because I haven't seen Avatar. "Secret Society" is the best ever super-villain team up story in animation, so Grodd deserves the vote.

You would LOVE Avatar! Seriously!!

Also, isn't the Avatar policy named for Avatar?

[Blankments]

Also, isn't the Avatar policy named for Avatar?

It is? I thought it was named after, well, your avatar. Like if you automatically voted for anything Spider-Man related and Superpan voted for anything Peter Pan related.

[Gold Guy]

Indiana Jones and Grodd. Grodd because I know him, and Jones because he is more of a character than William.

[SpideyFan914]

It is? I thought it was named after, well, your avatar. Like if you automatically voted for anything Spider-Man related and Superpan voted for anything Peter Pan related.

No, it was named for Avatar: The Last Airbender, because apparently Superpan thought they were getting an unfair representation even though only four characters made it into the finals. Thus, he named "the Avatar policy" the policy by which one votes against characters which he believes will be a threat in future rounds. Weird, huh? But it's sounds catchy, so it stuck.

[Blankments]

Well... that's one of the stupidest policies I've ever heard of. Sorry, but you guys should really just be voting on the match alone. I can understand just voting with the thought in your head about threats within the match (in 4-way matches) but that's just kind of... I don't know, jerky. Whatever.

[Superpan]

Exactly. That's why I stopped doing it. Besides, I used it more to try to defeat Theodore Roosevelt in Greatest Historical Figure yet I rarely put him in last place and he ended up going pretty far.

To be fair, Spideyfan is really the only one who uses it. Whenever it's brought up, I kind've feel like Oppenheimer.

[SpideyFan914]

I only used it once, actually, and only 'cause I thought Disney was gonna win the game. Right now.... I'll probably use him as a bargaining chip. I tried to do it to save the Coens, but Cartoon never logged on and I didn't realize Superpan hadn't voted yet. :sweat:

[Superpan]

Ah, thanks. In case you're wondering, here's my vote for the next Disney match that I WANT to do.

Walt Disney
Mike Nichols
Marc Webb
Whoever the fourth guy was

That's flexible if you want me to save Marc Webb or whatshisname.

But we should probably stay on topic

[SpideyFan914]

Walt Disney

Marc Webb

But we should probably stay on topic

No, Nichols is my 1 in that match, easy. If you want, though, I'll put Disney 2nd and we'll just say you owe me one. How's that?

[ShadowStar]

You would LOVE Avatar! Seriously!!


I believe you, but I haven't had time to watch it yet. Hopefully I'll make a start soon.

[The Cartoon]

Indiana Jones wins 6-2 and Grodd wins 5-3. Shocked by that. Apparently there aren't enough Avatar fans here. I hope that Iroh fairs better than Aang and Zuko have.

Match 25:

Beast

vs.

Martian Manhunter

Match 26:

Shere Khan
http://www.rankopedia.com/CandidatePix/11253.gif

vs.

Goliath
http://m1.ikiwq.com/img/xl/ARjruLroypdVJSyfxsvHld.JPG
________________________________________________________

I vote Martian Manhunter and... Shere Khan.

[SpideyFan914]

J'onn J'onzz and Goliath, 'cause the Manhunter's AWESOME! and Gargoyles was a great show.

[Blankments]

I'll skip the first one since the picture for Beast isn't showing up. It could be either Beast of Beauty and the, or Beast the X-Man, but I don't know which. Second one goes to Shere Khan though, that's easy.

[SpideyFan914]

It's the X-Man.

[Blankments]

In that case, I vote for Martian Manhunter, since I actually know who he is.

[ShadowStar]

A difficult choice...

I think Beast is more charismatic than Martian Manhunter, so I think I'll have to go with Beast...

While Shere Khan is one of my favourite Disney villains, Gargoyles was one of my favourite shows as a kid, so I'll go with Goliath...

Hard choices!

[Superpan]

No, Nichols is my 1 in that match, easy. If you want, though, I'll put Disney 2nd and we'll just say you owe me one. How's that?

Wait, why would you owe you one? I put Nichols second and Disney first. You put Nichols first and Disney second. We would be doing the exact same thing. No offense, but I have a rule against telling someone on the internet I "owe" them something. Just sounds strange.

Beast. Much better-read than Martian Manhunter.

...hmm....a tie...

I'll abstain from the second match for now.

[Gold Guy]

Martian and pass. The Martian was cool in JL.

[SpideyFan914]

Wait, why would you owe you one? I put Nichols second and Disney first. You put Nichols first and Disney second. We would be doing the exact same thing. No offense, but I have a rule against telling someone on the internet I "owe" them something. Just sounds strange.

Because I'd be voting for Disney! ;)
Also, I don't care enough about Nichols to use up my "bargaining chip" on him. I'd probably only care enough about a few guys, like Chaplin, Hitchcock, Wilder, Coens, Kaufman, Polanski, Kurosawa, Lasseter, Spielberg, Brooks, Aronofsky, Keaton, Lumet, Nolan.... That's probably it. And half those guys won't have any problem. And some of them are already gone. :crying:

[ShadowStar]

I might not be around tomorrow, so I'll vote now: I'm going with Green Goblin and Homer Simpson.

[HEATXZ]

Martian Manhunter and Goliath :anime:

[cradleman]

Beast and Shere Khan

[Superpan]

Still a tie. I think I'll leave it up to the impartial third party to decide this.

Also Spideyfan, I would definitely place Wilder high up. Chaplin's pretty high too. Hitchcock....fine. He's not terrible. Just overrated. Also, apparently a psycho, but then again who isn't in that town, huh?

[SpideyFan914]

Of course, Hitchcock was enough of a psycho to make a movie about it. ;)

[Superpan]

True, but did you see what he did to the lead actress in the Birds? It was an article on Cracked.

[SpideyFan914]

No, but I know he's a weird guy.

[Superpan]

He blacklisted her because she started having a breakdown when he kept on throwing birds at her face to keep the terror "real".

[SpideyFan914]

The funny thing is I really didn't care for her performance.

[Superpan]

Well, she was as scared as she could be.

[Nouus]

(If it's not too late)

Match 25 : Beast. I really liked the avengers when he was with them, him and Vision are undoubtedly on the top 10 of my favourite 'supers'.

Match 26 : Shere Khan. I actually had a hard time remembering who the heck was Goliath.

[The Cartoon]

Not too late at all. ^_^

Beast wins 5-4 and Shere Khan wins 4-3.

Match 27:

Popeye

vs.

Homer Simpson
http://images.wikia.com/simpsons/images/0/02/Homer_Simpson_2006.png
_______________________________________________________

I vote for Popeye in the first round. He's a classic, and one of the greatest cartoons of all time. Second match, I suppose that I'll vote Homer Simpson, only because I want the majority of real people to get eliminated soon. I'm not sure if I should have allowed them to be in Greatest Character Ever.

[cradleman]

Popeye and Stan Lee

[HEATXZ]

Popeye and Homer :anime:

[ShadowStar]

As I said before, I'm going with Green Goblin and Homer Simpson.

Popeye is a classic though; I won't mind if he beats Gobby.

[Blankments]

I'll vote the Green Goblin since I know him better and I'll skip the second match since Stan Lee isn't a character and I don't like the Simpsons.

[Nouus]

Hmm... I'll pass on the first match, because neither Popeye nor the Green Gobelin marked me that much... btw the second is known as the "green buffon" here :D

Stan Lee vs Homer, however, is a no-match... Homer, of course. (doh !)

[Gold Guy]

Green Goblin, for being a worthy Spidey foe, and Stan Lee, for all his cool cameos in Marvel films.

[SpideyFan914]

Dang, two tough ones. I think I'll go with Gobby, out of an admitted bias my love of Spidey and lack of knowledge on Popeye.

And.... Stan.

[jph139]

Saving throws for Popeye and Homer Simpson.

[Superpan]

The Green Goblin is one of my favorite characters of all time, but the pity vote goes to Popeye, because I'm kind've a semi-expert on him.

I abstain from the second match because I'm not a big fan of Homer and I'm saving my "YOU KILLED PETER PAN!" wrath for that glow-in-the-dark Green Goblin ripoff. Who I believe is still in this competition.

[The Cartoon]

Popeye wins 6-3 and Homer wins 5-3.

Not easy matches. I think I'll side with Scrooge McDuck in the first one, and Calvin in the second.

[Superpan]

Not easy matches. I think I'll side with Scrooge McDuck in the first one, and Calvin in the second.

I'll second this vote.

So, Popeye didn't need my pity vote....aw well, Green Goblin has won one of these contests already.

[Blankments]

I'll vote for The Penguin since I'm sadly not that familar with McDuck, and Calvin, since I don't watch the Simpsons.

[Nouus]

I'll vote for Scrooge. I like greedy characters, especially him.

The second match is a tought one... but since Homer won over Stan lee, I choose Calvin. (used to have a quote from him for signature on a forum)

[HEATXZ]

I vote for Scrooge McDuck and Moe :anime:

[ShadowStar]

Before I vote on the first one, I must know... is Scrooge McDuck the uncle or grandfather of those duck triplets in that animated series (I forget its name)? Or is he only in the Disney version of A Christmas Carol (where Goofy is Jacob Marley)?

As for the second one, I'm going with Moe. I can't remember who Calvin is.

[SpideyFan914]

Scrooge McDuck, 'cause I'm not that familiar with him but Penguin shouldn't have made it this far.

And Calvin hands down. I love Moe, but this is CALVIN!!! As in....

Scrooge: cause, he's awesome

Calvin! cause he's the best comic character ever, with the possible exception of Garfield

[The Cartoon]

Before I vote on the first one, I must know... is Scrooge McDuck the uncle or grandfather of those duck triplets in that animated series (I forget its name)? Or is he only in the Disney version of A Christmas Carol (where Goofy is Jacob Marley)?
He's both. ;)

[Superpan]

Scrooge McDuck is the uncle of Donald Duck who is the uncle of Huey, Dewey, and Louie.

So he's, depending on how you look at it, their great-uncle or their grand-uncle.

[Six Year Man]

Before I vote on the first one, I must know... is Scrooge McDuck the uncle or grandfather of those duck triplets in that animated series (I forget its name)? Or is he only in the Disney version of A Christmas Carol (where Goofy is Jacob Marley)?

As for the second one, I'm going with Moe. I can't remember who Calvin is.


Here's some help.

http://duckman.pettho.com/tree/s_us.jpg

If you're wondering why Ludwig Von Drake isn't here, it's because he's not very popular with the creators.

[ShadowStar]

Ah, thanks for the answers, guys. So is Scrooge McDuck the one who appears regularly in the same show as Huey, Dewey and Louie?


Scrooge McDuck, 'cause I'm not that familiar with him but Penguin shouldn't have made it this far.

No offense, but I don't understand the logic of votes like this. When you only know one of the two, it makes sense to vote for the one you actually know.

I get that you perceive Penguin as a threat to the other contenders but still.

Anyway, it's a hard choice. Scrooge McDuck will win anyway so I guess I'll give Penguin a pity vote, because Paul Williams as Penguin (in B:TAS) is one of the best voiceover casting choices ever. Also, "Birds of a Feather" was a great episode.

As for the second one, I'm still siding with Moe because from what's been posted above, Calvin seems to be a bit of a jerk. :p

[SpideyFan914]

No offense, but I don't understand the logic of votes like this. When you only know one of the two, it makes sense to vote for the one you actually know.

I get that you perceive Penguin as a threat to the other contenders but still.
Ha! Penguin's not a threat! I just don't really like him is all. When you think someone should've been out in round one of the prelims, and you then see them in the finals, nine times out of ten you'll want to vote against them.


As for the second one, I'm still siding with Moe because from what's been posted above, Calvin seems to be a bit of a jerk. :p

And Moe isn't? Lol.

[ShadowStar]

Ha! Penguin's not a threat! I just don't really like him is all. When you think someone should've been out in round one of the prelims, and you then see them in the finals, nine times out of ten you'll want to vote against them.

Penguin (in B:TAS) has class. But oh well.


And Moe isn't? Lol.

Well... Moe has so far resisted the temptation to be as much of a jerk as he is capable of being (i.e. by making a move on Marge;)), while Calvin seems waaaay too bratty even for a child.

[Superpan]

Yes Shadowstar that was Scrooge.

[Nouus]

Calvin and Moe will never get along...

http://metrac.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/imgsrv-gocomics-com.gif

Harry Potter
http://images.wikia.com/harrypotter/images/b/b0/HarryPOA.jpg
_______________________________________________________

First match isn't even close. My favorite character ever vs. an overrated comic book character who's already beaten several of my favorites in this competition? I vote Shaggy. Second match is still a pretty easy choice. I'm not a huge Captain America fan, so I vote Harry.

[SpideyFan914]

Shaggy, because "ZOINKS!" beats "I SHALL ENSLAVE MANKIND!" (And by the way, Apocalypse is one of my favorite all-time comic villains.)

And Captain America, because Harry Potter isn't the best Harry Potter character.

[Superpan]

Shaggy because his opponent isn't executed well often.

Captain America because I LOVE CAPTAIN AMERICA!

[HEATXZ]

Shaggy and Captain America

[ShadowStar]

The first one sure isn't easy. I'll give it to Apocalypse though - he is one of the best comic book villains. Won't be a problem if Shaggy beats him though. I watched all the Scooby Doo shows avidly, except for the last three (What's New Scooby Doo, Shaggy and Scooby Get a Clue and Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated), so it's safe to say that I like Shaggy. He's a good character.

Harry Potter for the second one, though I do like Captain America too.

[cradleman]

Shaggy, because "ZOINKS!" beats "I SHALL ENSLAVE MANKIND!" (And by the way, Apocalypse is one of my favorite all-time comic villains.)

And Captain America, because Harry Potter isn't the best Harry Potter character.
this on both counts, though i believe that Shaggy says Zoiks! not Zoinks!. but hey, what do i know? lol.

[Blankments]

Shaggy, because I don't know the other character, and Captain America, because I haven't read/watched Harry Potter.

[Nouus]

Shaggy, because "ZOINKS!" beats "I SHALL ENSLAVE MANKIND!" (And by the way, Apocalypse is one of my favorite all-time comic villains.)

And Captain America, because Harry Potter isn't the best Harry Potter character.

This^

I don't like captain America that much, but Harry will always be in the shade of awesome characters like Snape or Slughorn. Or Lucius Malefoy.

[The Cartoon]

@Crade. He says "Zoinks." :p

Shaggy wins 7-1 and Captain America wins 5-3.

Green Lantern and Inspector Gadget :anime:

[cradleman]

@theCartoon: been a couple years, so who can remember? lol

first is hard, but Hal is one of my favorite superheros. gotta go with him

for the 2nd, no question that as much i love Grinch, Inspector Gadget is too good to lose now

[Superpan]

Green Lantern! PETER PAN SHALL BE AVENGED, YOU BORING GOBLIN RIPOFF!

Grinch. What, he's my cousin.

[Blankments]

I vote for the Green Lantern because I don't know Blight, and for the Grinch since he's my favorite Christmas figure.

[Gold Guy]

Blight and The Grinch. Pity for Blight, and I used to like The Grinch.

[SpideyFan914]

Although I love Blight, I'll go with Green Lantern in the first match. Second match is somewhat difficult, but I'll say The Grinch. He's a great character and I'd love to see him advance a couple rounds.

This.

[ShadowStar]

Blight and the Grinch, definitely.

I'm more familiar with Blight than Hal Jordan, and I'd take the Grinch over Inspector Gadget any day!

Green Lantern and The Grinch both win 6-2. Sorry for not updating guys. I had some major internet issues this past weekend, and I had to get my computer repaired.

Xanatos and Axel! Because they have X's in their names, and that always makes for a sick character!

I agree.

I agree.
i too agree

[Gold Guy]

Carnage and Axel :anime:

I'll go with this too.

[ShadowStar]

Xanatos and Wile E. Coyote.

Two pretty tough matches. Nightcrawler is my favorite X-Man, but Winnie the Pooh is my favorite childhood character so I have to go with him. For the second match, Mysterio is my favorite Spidey villain but the Wizard of Oz is one of my favorite all-time movies and I love the Tin Man. So I'll go with him.

[HEATXZ]

Nightcrawler and Mysterio :anime:

[SpideyFan914]

POOH!!!!!!!!!!!!

And for the second one.... both have gone far enough, but I'll go with Mysterio, 'cause honestly? Tin Man's the LAMEST of the trio! I mean, Mysterio's lame too, but in a good way.

[Superpan]

Winie the Pooh. DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH POOH BEAR!

Tin Man. Hey, he's cooler in the original Baum books! He's a world leader, a killing machine, and kind've a emotional wreck. Not as cool as the Scarecrow, but close enough.

[ShadowStar]

Nightcrawler and... Mysterio, because there are more memorable characters in The Wizard of Oz than the Tin Man.

[cradleman]

POOH!!!!!!!!!!!!

And for the second one.... both have gone far enough, but I'll go with Mysterio, 'cause honestly? Tin Man's the LAMEST of the trio! I mean, Mysterio's lame too, but in a good way.
I'll go with this

[Blankments]

I'll go with Pooh since I'm not an X-Men fan and the Tin Man since I sang his solo on tour last year.

[Gold Guy]

I'll go with Nightcrawler and Mysterio, since I know them both more than the other choices.

[Six Year Man]

Pooh and Tin Man

[The Cartoon]

Pooh wins 6-3 and Mysterio wins 5-4.

Match 39:

vs.

Spider-Man

___________________________________________________________

Neither are easy matches. In the first one, I'll go with my favorite Star Wars character, Chewbacca. I love Captain Hook too, but he's not my favorite Disney villain. Second match, I'm actually going to choose Ryuk. From what I've seen of him, he's awesome. And Spidey is the biggest threat in the competition imo.

[cradleman]

chewie and spidey

[Superpan]

Captain Hook. That doesn't say its only the Disney version. I think it means every version....please vote for Captain Hook.


Spider-Man. Everyone who votes for Hook gets a favor!

[Gold Guy]

Hook: Because I know him better than Chewbacca.

Ryuk: Because he's cool and may need the help.

[SpideyFan914]

Both super-easy matches - Hook and Spidey.

(Granted, the matches are on two different levels - if it was Ryuk v. Hook, I'd probably go with Ryuk, but he can't compare with Spidey's sheer greatness. Chewy, meanwhile, may be good but just doesn't have the class or piratey-ness that Hook does. And, Superpan says I get a favor. ;) )

[ShadowStar]

Captain Hook and Spider-Man, hands down.

[HEATXZ]

Captain Hook and Ryuk :anime:

[The Cartoon]

Captain Hook wins 5-2 and Spidey wins 4-3.

Match 41:

Pinky & The Brain

Darkseid

Sokka

___________________________________________________________

First match, I vote Droopy. Pinky & The Brain are good characters but I never got into the show. And Droopy is a classic. Second match, I choose Sokka. He's the main comic relief for Avatar, as well as a deep and important character. Probably my second favorite Avatar character behind Iroh. Plus, Darkseid is way overrated imo.

[HEATXZ]

Pinky & The Brain and Sokka :anime:

[ShadowStar]

The first one is hard, but since Droopy can be quite tiresome sometimes (bit of a pun there), I'm going with Pinky and the Brain.

Darkseid for the second one.

[Gold Guy]

I'll go with Droopy and Darkseid, because I know them both.

[cradleman]

The first one is hard, but since Droopy can be quite tiresome sometimes (bit of a pun there), I'm going with Pinky and the Brain.

Darkseid for the second one.
these are my two votes.

[Superpan]

Droopy. Let's tie this thing up.

Darkseid. Sokka's boring.

[SpideyFan914]

Pity vote for Sokka!

[bobbybop]

pinky and the brain and darkseid

[Nouus]

You know what ? I vote Droopy.

... And Sokka. Cause Darkseid's uggly.

[Blankments]

I vote for Pinky and the Brain, since I have far fonder memories of them than Droopy, and for Sokka, because I've become incredibly annoyed with the lack of Avatar fans voting, and the over-abundance of obscure comic book characters going through.

[The Cartoon]

Sorry about the late updates lately.

Pinky & The Brain win 5-4 and there's a 5-5 tie between Darkseid and Sokka. (No tiebreakers available atm so I'll update this part later. I really can't wait any longer)

Match 43:

Magneto

__________________________________________________________

I vote for Bugs in the first match. One of the greatest characters of all time. And I still think that Magneto is overrated. Second match I think I'll go with Harley Quinn. Trying to get rid of the real people in the tournament.

[HEATXZ]

Bugs Bunny and Harley Quinn :anime:

[bobbybop]

magneto and harley quinn

[cradleman]

Bugs and Hitch

[SpideyFan914]

First is tough, but I'm going with Magneto.

Second is easy, and I'm going with Hitchcock.

[Superpan]

Bugs Bunny and Harley Quinn, the two more interesting characters.

[Gold Guy]

Magneto and Harley are both interesting villains, so I'll go with them.

[ShadowStar]

The first one is so hard, but I'm going with Bugs Bunny.

The second one is so easy: definitely Harley Quinn.

I don't get why someone would want a real person to make it this far in the tournament anyway - it's not like anyone here can claim to have known Alfred Hitchcock personally. Sure, he accomplished a lot, but we don't really know about the man's character.

[Superpan]

...Well, I know a bit about his character...not alot, but a few things...crossdressing, obssession with platinum blondes, master showman, occasional cruelty.....I haven't read much about him, but, y'know, some stuff.

[Blankments]

I'll vote Bugs Bunny, since he's a classic character and I'm not a X-Men fan, and Harley Quinn, since Alfred Hitchcock really shouldn't count as a character.

[The Cartoon]

Bugs and Harley win 6-3.

Match 45:

The Invisible Man

vs.

Daffy Duck
http://media.comicvine.com/uploads/0/7934/188062-181526-daffy-duck_large.jpg
__________________________________________________________

As much as I love Donkey, I vote The Invisible Man in the first match. He's a fantastic character, through several adaptions. Second match I vote Daffy. Not only because I want the real people to get voted out, but because Daffy is one of the greatest cartoon characters of all time. And he may have a chance of going up against Bugs in two rounds.

[cradleman]

Invisible Man and Daffy Duck

[Superpan]

Invisible Man and Daffy Duck
This all the way.

[HEATXZ]

Donkey and Daffy :anime:

[SpideyFan914]

The Invisible Man, hands down.

Second is closer, but I'm still going with Edgar Allen Poe. But I know Daffy'll win, and I can't say I'll really complain. I will, however, take this opportunity to complain about Hitchcock's losing to Harley.

[bobbybop]

donkey and daffy duck

[ShadowStar]

Donkey and Daffy Duck.

[Blankments]

I vote for Donkey to try to tie it, and Daffy Duck since he's an actual character.

[Nouus]

Donkey and Daffy :anime:

Same for me.

[The Cartoon]

Wow. Donkey comes back to win 5-4. (Don't know about that choice :sad:) And Daffy wins 8-1.

vs.

L (Death Note)
http://www.glogster.com/media/5/33/54/38/33543867.jpg
______________________________________________________________

First match, I vote for Scarecrow. I always vote for Looney Tunes characters, but Scarecrow is one of my favorite comic book villains of all time. Next match I vote for Genie because I don't really know who L is.

[SpideyFan914]

First match, Scarecrow, because he's cool!

Second match.... I love both of 'em, but I'll go with L.

[HEATXZ]

Porky Pig and L :anime:

[Superpan]

Porky Pig is one of the greatest characters of all time. He's g-g-g-g-awesome!

Genie. Not much of a choice for me really...

[cradleman]

Porky Pig and L :anime:
this

[Nouus]

The first is a no-match : Porky shall win !

L vs. Genie, on the other side... is a really tought choice. I'll go with Genie, 'cause he's by far the best character from Alladin, while Death note offers an other (better) candidate, I mean Kira himself.

[ShadowStar]

First one is hard, but Scarecrow deserves more support, so I'm going with him.

Genie for the second one.

[cradleman]

The first is a no-match : Porky shall win !

L vs. Genie, on the other side... is a really tought choice. I'll go with Genie, 'cause he's by far the best character from Alladin, while Death note offers an other (better) candidate, I mean Kira himself.
except Light didn't even make it out of the 3rd round. . . :(

[Gold Guy]

Pass and L.
