    Loved Fassbender as Magneto but there is only so many times I can see flip flop from good to bad to good to bad.

    So Rudd wins for me.

    Robert Downey Jr moves on and that brings us to the end of the round. I can see we've got some great, A-list talent in place for the round of 16, so we should be guaranteed some stellar match-ups.

    I will now do the draw for the next round which ought to be up in a little while. Stay tuned. :cool:

    Okay ladies and gents the round of 16 draw has been finalised and as expected we've got some very tasty clashes on the way. It's hard to single any out as they're all quite interesting in their own way.

    As we're now going up another gear in the game we are also upping the number needed to go through to 4 votes.

    So then, let's get the first tie under way...




    Chris Evans (Captain America: The First Avenger)

    Keaton. His Batman begun my obsession with the character as a child.

    That, and it's a genuinely excellent performance. Proved a lot of fans wrong who were upset over his casting.
