Oh well, Walken is obviously the best of the best, and Mr T. is pretty rockin' too.

You people frighten me.

I vote for spidey (he's got class and resolution that saddam lacks)
Also, 6 flags, because Megaman looks dumb.
I have to vote Walken over Voltron, because while the Voltron animation is awesome, the dance lacks any substance. I can't see him actually doing it to music.
Finally, Mr. T, because the Batman animation is too disjointed. Ive seen the episode, actually, and it looks better in the original, but the original isn't dancing here.

Actually, I didn't look to see who I was voting for, I just hit reply and looked at the pictures. I knew about Saddam and Megaman, but the other two I wasn't sure.

SE's votes were clearly influences by possible business deals and back room bribes.

Saddam
Crazy Old 6-flags Guy
Voltron
Mr. T

Walken is awesome, and were I voting on the strength of the original he would certainly win, but based solely on that clip it just wasn't cool enough. Same for Batman.

Final Standings!

Bracket One
EUOL 4 / Sprig 3

Bracket Two
EUOL 6 / Sprig 1

Bracket Three
EUOL 4 / Sprig 5

Bracket Four
EUOL 5 / Sprig 2

So, Spiderman just barely managed to out-shimmy Sadam.  (The Hammer pants must have taken him down, just like they did dear Hammer himself...  Either that, or Spidy's ambiguous gayness was just to transfixing.  See: http://www.penny-arcade.com/images/2006/20060329.jpg )

Megaman never had a chance.  That old dude from Six Flags not only has way more bits and pixels, but has mind-affecting powers.  (Watch those commercials, and you'll understand....)

Alas, the Walken!  I feel a deep sense of betrayal, let me tell you.  Walken is like Chuck Norris--he's supposed to win no matter what.  The foundations of my understanding of the world have been shaken.  At least he won to worthy competition.  Voltron DOES have some sweet moves.

And, Mr. T. "Pittys" poor Batman.  It is fitting that two aged TV icons should rise from the dust for one final bout.  In the end, I guess Batman should have used his "Bat Mr. T Repellant."  Either that, or he should have learned to dance.  (Honestly, he looks like he's having a seizure to me.)

All right.  So, EUOL wins round one with a total score of 3-1.  I knew I could out-dance my brother.  To further prove this, let us get on to round two, ELECTRIC BOOGALOO!!!!

Let me begin with the Dr. Himself:

I'm not even taking any chances.  The gloves are off, prepare to be served.

Just in case EUOL freaks out because I embded a flash movie here's a gif.  But it lacks without the music.



Oh, and SE you're taking this way to seriously.
