    Captain Malcolm Reynolds,

    A space cowboy. Gets my vote


    Also,

    I think Serenity was a decent send off for the TV series. Good film.

    Poor wash and the shepherd, but Jesus, don't bring it back, too much time has passed.

    Yeah, felt those were bit needless. Kinda like, well we only get one go at this, let's just kill someone.

    All eyes on Kursk. Slava Ukraini.

    Mal Reynolds leads 4-1 currently in what will definitely be the last match for tonight.

    Just 6 left before I open the Second Chance Showdowns, I'll likely kick things off at 6pm tomorrow.

    Mal - just to put us all out of our misery.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,216 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Malcolm Reynolds Advances! See you all at 6pm tomorrow evening!

    Everyone I voted for today progressed to the next round. I might retire now, like with WW, it's not going to get any better for me :pac:

    Captain Tightpants Mal Reynolds

    I predict a Malcolm Reynolds / Walter White final (unless they happen to meet earlier).

    Which would be worthy finalists in fairness.

    depends how quick the firefly fanboys are, yeah, some people really love it, but it doesn't have the broad appeal of a sopranos or something like that


    i'm just happy they got some representation


    mal means bad

    Very possible, there's a lot of love for Firefly out there as evidenced from the Best Sci Fi movie contest.

    Kicking off in just over an hour folks, the first match is one I've been looking forward to since the draw I can reveal.

    Match 55


    Let's kick one off with a firecracker, two phenomenal characters, only one can progress though.

    Reminder that it's first to five votes (with reasons)

    Jaime Lannister - Game of Thrones

    Eric Northman - True Blood

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Jaime Lannister - both are genuinely great and quite similar characters in many ways, but Jaime's arc is just incredible.


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 14,125 Mod ✭✭✭✭pc7


    Eric from TB, one sexy mo fo, who had a heart at the end of it. Also, never seen GoT


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Jaime - everything was done out of love


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47,336 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    Jaime Lannister, rightly made the final of the GoT competition and deserves to go far here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,012 ✭✭✭✭Alfred Borden


    Jaime Lannister - great character and I dont know who the other guy is!


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,216 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Jaime leads 4-1 in this battle so far...


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,712 ✭✭✭Sawduck


    Jamie
    He grew from a detestable guy to a decent guy, and his friendship with brienne was sweet


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,216 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Jaime joins his brother Tyrion in Round 2. Could a rematch be on the cards at some point?

    Ser Jaime. I haven't even seen who he's against but he's better.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,216 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Match 56


    An unconventional character battle here next.

    Lucas Hood - Banshee

    Haven't seen 'em.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Chuck McGill - I haven't seen Banshee, but pretty sure Chuck would beat any character in it by a country mile


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,012 ✭✭✭✭Alfred Borden


    Again, I have only seen one of these so going to go with Chuck McGill. Great foil to Jimmy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,605 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Lucas he was nude alot, sexy beast :p


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,712 ✭✭✭Sawduck


    Chuck McGill
    Wonderful performance that deserved some awards, plus i really like the actor too


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    Damnit, I'd have gone for Eric! :(

    Me too, another sexy beast, his banter with Pam they deserved a spin off, the show's true MVPs


  • Posts: 13,688 ✭✭✭✭ Brooklynn Bitter Mushroom


    Lucas. Never seen either show but nudity is always a plus.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,216 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    4-2 to Chuck so far


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 14,125 Mod ✭✭✭✭pc7


    Lucas! Amazing show for those that missed it! He’s brill, hard as nails!


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,216 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Less than 10 mins to run in this one. Chuck has a 4-3 lead


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Fück Chuck!

    No but seriously...vote Chuck.

    Stu Redman once again ends up on the winning side as I barely accept his reasoning ;) Chuck Mc Gill advances.

    Fwiw I agree, Banshee is a very enjoyable show.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,216 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Match 57


    The next match shows two very different characters up against each other.

    Will Sherlock solve the case or get stuck with the pointy end?
    Sherlock Holmes - Sherlock

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Both are meh...

    Sherlock because its fun to get Cumerbund Bandersnatch's name completely wrong and people still know who you mean


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,159 ✭✭✭Irish Aris


    Sherlock Holmes hands down.

    Amazing character and great performance by Benedict Cumberbatch.

    Arya - I love little ninja assasins

    I'm gonna go with Sherlock but pretend that it's the Jonny Lee Miller version.

    Arya's already had her own competition.

    Sherlock winner for me against most but not even a 2nd thought against that abomination

    Mick's vote of hate puts Sherlock through to Round 2

    Cristopher Moltisanti - currently re-watching The Sopranos, forgot exactly how epic all of the characters are


  • Posts: 0 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Gotta go Chris one of the many great characters in that show


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,712 ✭✭✭Sawduck


    Christopher
    Even thought he's only my third favorite character in The Sopranos, he'd still beat a whole bunch of challengers in this


  • Posts: 13,688 ✭✭✭✭ Brooklynn Bitter Mushroom


    Christopher - just to help get these no hopers over and done with
