Default Playground Weekly Top Ten #1!

((This was in the Media Discussion forum. But, it actually belongs here. So, here it goes.))

Alright folks. Everybody here has opinions on something, right? Course you do. Who doesn't?

So, I want to know. What are these opinions? Well?

So, each week, I'm going to run a poll of some random topic. And you guys throw in your suggestions, and I'll compile them into a "Top Ten" list. All of the results chosen by you.

I'll get the new topic up on Saturday nights, and have the previous week's results up by Sunday at the latest.

Now, I'm going to set down a few rules.

Spoiler



Well, that's it for the rules.

Now, for this week's topic.

Top Ten....Action Movie Stars!

Okay, here are the results for Detectives! Quite a few ties, actually.

------------------------------------------------------------

Alright, moving on. This week...let's see...well, since Portal 2 was announced...

Top Ten...AIs!

Yeah. Any AI you can think of.

On a side note, please do not put in robots or droids. They are different from AIs, as AIs are computer bound.

Anywho, time for my votes.

1. GlaDOS

And time for the results! Not as many votes as with Detectives, and less ties as well.

Spoiler


----------------------------------------------------------

Okay, new week, new topic.

Hmmm...let's go with...

Top Ten...Cover Songs!


That's right. Songs by one artist, that were originally somebody else's song.

With this topic, since there's so many to choose from, I'll allow six votes.

Also, I'm going to ask that the votes actually have a format to them this time.

Song Title - Cover Artist - Original Artist

So, here we go!

1) Kidnap the Sandy Claws - Korn - Danny Elfman
2) RESPECT - Aretha Franklin - Otis Redding
3) Land of Confusion - Disturbed - Phil Collins
4) Thunderstruck - Hinder - AC/DC
5) All Along the Watchtower - Jimi Hendrix - Bob Dylan
6) Smooth Criminal - Alien Ant Farm - Michael Jackson

In hindsight, that topic was poor choice. My bad.

Hmmm...okay, here's a good one.

Top Ten...Action Movie Stars!!


Inspiration behind this one? The Expendables.

Okay, who's the best action stars? Anybody that stared in an action movie.

Here go my five:

1) Jason Statham
2) Bruce Willis
3) Samuel L. Jackson
4) Jet Li
5) Bruce Lee

1) Sean Connery - The Original Bond, and even at 60-70 years of age, able to kick some major tuchus in The Rock. Accept no substitutes.
2) Bruce Campbell - Hail to the King, baby.
3) Robert Downey Jr. - He's becoming the thinking man's action star. Witty, with good emotions and enough detachment to make any ridiculous stunt seem plausible.
4) Daniel Craig - Perfect marriage of old fashioned Bond and new.
5) Jason Statham - Perfect counterpoint to Downey. All of his recent films have been action, action, action. And he's shown with films like Snatch and Lock Stock that he can handle some black humor as well.

I know you said no arguing opinions, but I REALLY felt like sharing mine on this one... no rule against that, right? Especially since a few of my picks are a little non-traditional.

Yeah...I guess you're right. As long as that's as far as it goes. Any further, and your votes are out, and maybe other things'll happen. I'll ignore you, at least.

I like to argue, but I'm not gonna attack someone else for their picks, no worries.

You can ask around, I'm a pretty friendly guy.

Unless you're Jontom Xire.
