First off,, HAPPY BIRTHDAY JINA!!!! :)
Secondly, I'm highly surprised you added Blade, hes a superhero and has super human powers, and there is no Batman, who is mortal.
Thirdly dont diss McGuyver, he'll probably whip a paperclip that richochets and wipes the others ones on the list with one shot!!

If you think Blade doesn't belong, we can take him off...but Ape and I thought he didn't have powers, he was just awesome...
But I'm not a huge Blade fan, so there is no surprise I didn't realize that.

He has powers... Batman does not...

Alright, we'll swap Blade out for Mr. T, who I had there before :)
Cap'n Schwartz

Yeah Mr. T is fine, hes like a Giant Gary Coleman, so that should work!!
Mike

Oooh, what about the Man in Black from Princess Bride :)

I am going to vote for Jules from Pulp Fiction to replace Blade (surprise, surprise). Also, MacGyver should be seeded last. Love that you included Martin Riggs, although I think he should be seeded higher. How many times did he get shot in Lethal Weapon 2 and survive? :-)
This is gonna rock! Good idea putting Mr. T back on the list.

I'm afraid Mr. T can't make the list. You see, Mr. T was defeated by Rocky in "Rocky III." Since Rocky didn't even make the list there's no way that Mr. T can stand a chance of moving on past the first round.

I think we have to specify which version of James Bond is competing here as well. Not all James Bonds are created equal.

i wasn't thinking so much about him in Rocky as I was about the A-Team.
Jason

Hmm...well, I can see that. Of course, the voting will probably reflect the fact that he lost a match in Rocky III to someone who didn't even make the cut so...not sure he's going to make it very far.
Kory

agree that he probably does not make it far but i believe there is merit to have him added.

Guess it'll be up to Mike since he's seeding it.

Well, since I'm a guy who watches chick-flicks, and DOES negotiate with terrorists, then I also want to avoid a boycott by Nicky, so I guess Mr. T. makes it in.
Sorry Jules, you may be a bad a$$ motherfraker, but not in this contest :)

Well at least we know who is out first round :)

And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

LOL would be more appropriate for the Lost :What piece... "Say What again... I dare you.. Say What again mother &*#!@#$%!!

Seriously Mr T instead of Jules? Now that's kooky talk.
Okay guys, I've come to a conclusion, and I blame Porter for the idea:
We're going to have a playoff between Jules, Mr. T and...Leon, why the heck not.
I'll post it tomorrow, the voting will last for 5 days like the others, and this last person will go into the final bracket grouping posted on next Thursday.
That should solve it!

Excellent! Happy to take the fall for that one. :)
Well, I posted it here cause it was in honor of not Jules not making the list originally, but it should of been posted on the Lost what clip... I was torn...
The play-offs are a good idea, though you could just add Maxwell Smart and be done with it!
Mike

Okay, now this brings up another issue...and maybe it wont matter, but Selenne from Underworld IS a vampire...so should she be ousted as well?
If so, I need another chick.

lol
Mr. T. sucks and is not going to make the final-cut. Good idea for a playoff Mike.
She is a vampire and would have superhuman power. You could substitute Number 6, but she could be counted as a machine since she is a cylon, and we didnt allow the female terminator, but you saw how Kara Thrace held her own against her....

For the 8th woman, how about giving Riggs some company and toss in Lorna Cole from Lethal Weapon 3/Lethal Weapon 4?
Does Alice from Resident Evil have powers? Cause I can put her back in for Selenne

What about Cagney and Lacey or do those count as men?
R.A. Porter
· 1 year ago
Guys! C'mon!
Let's make up our minds. Cagney, Lacey, and MacGyver all go to the same 'Mullets and Stuff' to get their hair cut. Either they're all women, or they're all men!
I'd say Jaime Sommers, but she was cancelled, so she cant even beat bad ratings...
R.A. Porter

Oh...and on the powers/no powers front: Buffy - powers (there's a demon inside her) Xena - no powers Nikita - no powers, and a bad ass Alice - I believe she's powered by the T-virus
You know.... Ape brings up a good point.. we have mostly all good guys in this, what about the bad guys?!?! Hans Gruber, he would think most people to a beating... Are there any major baddies we are leaving out that should be in?
Mike
· 1 year ago
We'll have to make a bad guy one later :)

And one with comedic characters might be funny - Austin Powers, Inspector Cluso, Maxwell Smart, etc...
And a movie bracket one, so we can put the Queen to rest once and for all...

Well on the women's side you left out Fiona from Burn Notice, how could you?
Also on the female side I'd have to throw in Ivanova and Delenn from Babylon 5, Trinity from The Matrix, Xev Bellringer from Lexx, Leeloo from The Fifth Element, Juliet Burke from Lost, Sarah Walker from Chuck and probably quite a few others.
However, I think the ultimate award will eventually have to go to Ripley for being *mostly* dead and being brought back to life so many times.

Did Buffy have powers?
What about Le Femme Nikita? She was a bad ass, no powers.

Obviously, I'm referring to the demon that inhabits all slayers, not to the demon that inhabits Angel or Spike and then subsequently...
well, you know.

BUt I would have chosen Trinity if powers were allowed, and Neo would have been in too.
Juliet Burke...egh...she's not Le Femma Nikita
