Live-Action SURVIVOR Round 2.2

Post by AwallaceUNC »

In Round 2's first subround, we voted off...
Round 2.1 - Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey, Flubber, Heavyweights
Round 1 - Winner: Pollyanna

We've completed the first of three rounds in Live-Action Survivor! Now, we set out to pick the movie that will square off one-on-one against Pollyanna for the ultimate championship in Round 3.

Round 1 dealt with movies made prior to 1990 (I had to make the slight change from the site's grouping, which breaks at 1980, to slightly even out the two groupings). Round 2 will concern movies made from 1990 to the present day.

Live-action films have already been defined for us by Luke's pages for them here on the site. The complete list of films made between 1990 and today can be found at the bottom here (this list also includes movies made between 1980-1990).

It works just like the Survivor TV show. Basically, come on here once every 2 days and vote for the live-action Disney film that you want to vote off, i.e., the one that you like the least. Everyone is welcome!!

At the end of the sub-round, I'll come on here and announce which films got voted off, and a new thread will start for the next sub-round. This gets to be a lot of fun, especially when it gets down to the wire!

You can talk about your reasons for your vote, but I ask that you put the full title of what you're voting for in bold letters so that it's easy for me to count them all in a hurry.

As always, I ask that you let me make the final announcement of each sub-round's winner, so as to avoid confusion/ambiguity. I occasionally come in a little late, but for the most part, I'm usually able to come in and make the announcement shortly after the round ends.

There are even more films in Round 2 than there were in Round 1 (six more, in fact)! Round 2 will be structured slightly differently. Three movies will be cast off in each of the first 5 sub-rounds (the three with the most votes to leave). After that, two films will leave in each sub-round, until we reach the top 10. Make sense?

So, Survivors ready?? Come on in and vote off ONLY ONE of these 55 movies:

The Princess Diaries 2: The Royal Engagement
Miracle
The Haunted Mansion
Freaky Friday (2003)
Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl
The Lizzie McGuire Movie
Holes

Homeward Bound II: Lost In San Francisco

The Big Green
Tall Tale
Man Of The House

Who Framed Roger Rabbit?*



Voting ends at midnight (EASTERN TIME) on Monday, September 13th.

*A note on Roger Rabbit: There's likely to be a divided opinion over whether this should be included. Not only was it originally released under Touchstone Pictures, but it also comes from the late 1980s. However, it has since been embraced by Disney and Disney fans as a Disney film. The only other movie to share this status is The Nightmare Before Christmas, which was also included in our Other Animation game. Also, the Touchstone/Hollywood Survivor game currently going on is currently not including these films, and there have also been many, many requests to include it in this game. Therefore, I've decided to. If you are one who disagrees, I understand where you are coming from, but I've decided to include it. Thanks for understanding. :)

I thought DACPs and Just Myself's picks were both excellent ones last round but I will go with The Big Green

Aaron's hard drive crashed- he's lost his data and will be getting a new hard drive in the next couple of days. He might not be able to get on much until he gets his laptop back.

TurdBizzler is his best friend and roommate and he could call up Aaron.
Also Aaron could look at this at his college library. :wink:

Never you fear ! Awall has returned! :P I got my laptop back in just a day, surprisingly. With it only being a school laptop, I don't have any grand back-up system here, and I lost over 6,000 files, some of them very valuable to me. It sucks, I've mourned it, but what can you do? I'm definitely getting into the back-up scene now, though, lol.

Anyways, on with the show!

Well I count Homeward Bound 2, the Big Green and My Favorite Martian to the trash heap edging out Who Framed Roger Rabbit?(Some you may not like it and not my favorite but there is a lot of trash to go first)

Yes, I echo JJJ's sentiments. At any rate, Homeward Bound 2: The Incredible Journey, The Big Green and My Favorite Martian are gone in this sub-round, each getting 3 votes against it.
