[Ric Bagoly]

William Shatner

Rose McGowen

The Beverly Hillbillies

 

[SteveGon]

I'm going to start letting these brackets run for two days as some of our voters don't seem to be here every day.

"You would have been squashed flatter than a june bug stomped by a jackass..."

- Daisy Duke

 

[Brad Porter]

Round 1 - Bracket 25 - Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane
Bill Paxton vs. William Shatner

Shatner could be really funny in this role. "I'm IN.... HOT... pursuit!"

Round 1 - Bracket 26 - Daisy Duke
Jessica Biel vs. Rose McGowan

Are you guys nuts? Rose McGowan is nothing at all like Daisy. Miss Biel has the matching curves and the seductive eyes. McGowan has Jack Elam eyes. And she's like 5'5".

Round 1 - Bracket 27 - Cool Cameo
The Beverly Hillbillies vs. Hee-Haw

Only Elly May and Jethro are the only ones still alive, so TBH is probably not a good idea. I think George "Goober" Lindsey is still alive and healthy, so that decides my vote.

Shatner, Biel, Hee Haw.

Brad

 

[Justin Doring]

William Shatner (I can see him as Roscoe!)

Jessica Biel

The Beverly Hillbillies

 

[SteveGon]

My votes:

William Shatner
Jessica Biel
The Beverly Hillbillies

 

[SteveGon]

William Shatner wins 5 - 0.
Jessica Biel wins 3 - 2.
The Beverly Hillbillies wins 4 - 1.


Round 1 - Bracket 28 - Luke Duke

Ben Affleck vs. Josh Hartnett


Round 1 - Bracket 29 - Jefferson Davis 'Boss' Hogg

Michael Clarke Duncan vs. Charles Durning


Round 1 - Bracket 30 - Cooter Davenport

Jeremy Davies vs. Steve Zahn


Dukes Quote:

"Bo, you drive like my Aunt Fanny whips apple butter."

- Luke Duke

 

[Chucky P]

Ben Affleck
Charles Durning
Steve Zahn

 

[Brad Porter]

Round 1 - Bracket 28 - Luke Duke
Ben Affleck vs. Josh Hartnett

What? Let Ben Assface ruin another franchise? No thanks. I suggested Hartnett because I think Bo and Luke should both be played as earnestly stupid young men. The general impression that Hartnett has always given me was earnest stupidity.

Round 1 - Bracket 29 - Jefferson Davis 'Boss' Hogg
Michael Clarke Duncan vs. Charles Durning

Doc Hopper wins this round by a landslide.

Round 1 - Bracket 30 - Cooter Davenport
Jeremy Davies vs. Steve Zahn

Cooter needs to be high energy. Jeremy Davies is the antithesis of high energy acting. Steve Zahn is a poster child for it.

So, Hartnett, Durning, Zahn

Round 1 - Bracket 31 - Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane

Jeff Foxworthy vs. Dwight Yoakam


Round 1 - Bracket 32 - Uncle Jesse Duke

John Ritter vs. Paul Dooley


Round 1 - Bracket 33 - Cool Cameo

Knightrider vs. The Greatest American Hero


Dukes Quote:

"J.D., a fella's gotta do what he's gotta do...even if it's crookeder than a corkscrew."

- Uncle Jesse Duke

 

[Brad Porter]

Round 1 - Bracket 31 - Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane
Jeff Foxworthy vs. Dwight Yoakam

You might be an annoying redneck if... your name is Jeff Foxworthy. I like Yoakam's ability to combine incompetence with menace. I'm sure he's got the skills for Roscoe.

Round 1 - Bracket 32 - Uncle Jesse Duke
John Ritter vs. Paul Dooley

John Ritter? No. Here - look at Paul Dooley.



The beard and hair color can be faked, but the droopy eyes and the protruding cheekbones are natural. And fans of Breaking Away and Sixteen Candles are aware of Dooley's ability to portray a lovable father figure.

Round 1 - Bracket 33 - Cool Cameo
Knightrider vs. The Greatest American Hero

Gotta go with Knightboat, er, Knight Rider.

So it's Yoakam, Dooley, and Knight Rider

Brad

 

[Chucky P]

Dwight Yoakam
Paul Dooley
The Greatest American Hero

 

[Justin Doring]

Dwight Yoakam

Paul Dooley

Knightrider

 

[Ric Bagoly]

Dwight Yoakam

Paul Dooley

Knightrider

 

[SteveGon]

My votes:

Dwight Yoakam
Paul Dooley
Knightrider

 

[SteveGon]

Dwight Yoakam wins 5 - 0.
Paul Dooley wins 5 - 0.
Knightrider wins 4 - 1.


Our final round one matchups:

Round 1 - Bracket 34 - Deputy Enos Strate

Rick Moranis vs. Dylan Baker


Round 1 - Bracket 35 - Bo Duke

Matthew McConaughey vs. Eric Christian Olsen


Round 1 - Bracket 36 - Daisy Duke

Eliza Dushku vs. Veronica Zemanova*

* You'll have to do your own search.


Dukes Quote:

"It'd be easier for a chicken to lay a square egg."

- Daisy Duke

 

[Brad Porter]

Round 1 - Bracket 34 - Deputy Enos Strate
Rick Moranis vs. Dylan Baker

Dylan Baker is the better choice here, but I want him to say "People train run out of Stubbville" at some point.

Round 1 - Bracket 35 - Bo Duke
Matthew McConaughey vs. Eric Christian Olsen

MM got $5M for The Wedding Planner. He's a budget breaker for an ensemble film. Go with the up and coming young actor.

Round 1 - Bracket 36 - Daisy Duke
Eliza Dushku vs. Veronica Zemanova*

Neither is suited for Daisy, but Eliza will appeal more to the horny teen audience. The key to Daisy's sex appeal is that she almost wears nothing at all. No one would be wondering what Veronica looks like naked.

Those votes are for Baker, Olsen, and Dushku.

...but Eliza will appeal more to the horny teen audience.

Shit, she appeals to this 36 37 :frowning: year old audience.
