What a wonderful first week we had! Several come-backs late in the round, some near-maulings, and sexiness prevailed in (arguably) all cases! So, here are the results...
-----
Lisa (Weird Science) vs. Jeannie (I Dream of Jeannie) iiiiiii - iiiii
Pamela Ibis (Gust Games) vs.
Alma Wade (F.E.A.R.) iiii - iiiiiiiiii
-----
Raki (Ar Tonelico II) vs.
Missingno (Pokemon) ii - iiiiiiiiiii
Klaatu (The Day the Earth Stood Still) vs.
Marvin the Martian (Loony Toons) i - iiiiiiiiiiii
-----
George Washington (Real Life) vs. King Leonidas (300) iiiiiiiiiiiiii - ii
Cole Sear (The Sixth Sense) vs.
Melinda Gordon (Ghost Whisperer) iiiii - iiiiiiii
-----
GLaDoS (Portal) vs. SHODAN (System Shock 2) iiiiiiii - iiiiii
Rachael Ray (Real Life) vs.
Emeril Lagasse (Real Life) iiiii - iiiiiiiiii
You'll see these kids again in a few weeks. Now, on to the newest competitors...
Sufficiently Developed Science is Indistinguishable from Magic
vs.
Dr. Strange (Marvel Comics) vs.
Dr. Strangelove (Dr. Strangelove)Honestly, the names just had to be pitted together. Really, do I need any other reason?
vs.
Dr. Horrible (Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog) vs.
Dr. Orpheus (The Venture Brothers)It's a week of doctors with varying professions this week! Dr. Horrible has a PhD in Horribleness, while Dr. Orpheus has a PhD in Necromancy. While neither of them are that successful with the ladies, both have proven themselves more than adept at their preferred specialties. Will Dr. Horrible's tragic hero status overwhelm Dr. Orpheus' side character status, or does will Dr. Horrible discover that his name is more of a description of pain that Dr. Orpheus will inflict on him?
Apocalypse WOW
vs.
Arcturus Mengsk (Starcraft) vs.
Lt. Col. Bill Kilgore (Apocalypse Now) The southern general/dictator is much more coniving and capable than he looks. After all, to survive against the Queen of Blades, a bunch of pissed of Protoss, and other Terrans gunning for him requires a bit of finesse. Of course, finesse may not be enough - his opponent prefers to saturate things with firepower, preferably napalm, and napalm does not discriminate. Will the smooth-talking Mengsk be able to out-do the all-American Lt. Col., or is he destined to learn first-hand what the smell of napalm in the morning is like?
vs.
Lolcat (Internet Meme) vs.
Fluffy (Internet Meme)lol
Historical Pretense?
vs.
Helen of Troy (Real Life?) vs.
Anastasia Romanov (Real Life?)Were they real? Were they fake? We may never know, though Disney and several movie producers may argue the opposite. Both females have caused wars over them - but what can they do when they don't have a military behind them? It's anyone's guess, and as they say, the best fight's a catfight! Or something.
vs.
Yasunori Mitsuda (Real Life) vs.
Frederic Chopin (Real Life) Mitsuda is arguably one of the greatest video-game composers ever. On the other hand, Frederic Chopin actually has a video game he stars in, which not even Mitsuda can claim. A battle of classical versus modern music - who will prove to have the greater musical talent?
The Cake is a Lie
vs.
The Tick (The Tick) vs.
Flay Gunnar (Mana Khemia)For elves everywhere. Despite having used a source twice in one season - this is the only exception I will make.
vs.
Marie Antoinette (Real Life) vs.
Bundt (Super Mario RPG) The cake that got away...all she wanted was for her people to have some tasty cake, and they cut her head off for it. How rude! But now, she will have her revenge on that cursed baked good! The French Queen is fully prepared - knife, fork, and a large quantity of atorvastatin just in case! Of course, not many cakes carry a hack saw with them, so she might have her work cut out for her in that department...perhaps her people would prefer to eat her?
