The Action Heroes Team-up Tournament
 

Yes, we do indeed love our action movies don't we?

From mind-boggling stunts in the 70s and 80s to the CGI-propelled stuff through the 90s and the new millenium, action movies hold a guilty pleasure place in our hearts. We have all dreamed at one time or the other to be a Rambo, Terminator, John McClane or Indiana Jones, and live through the excitement we witness on the movie screens.

So here they are, ready to do battle against each other and assert their dominance on which particular team rules them all. Did I say team? Oh yes, this will be in the pattern of Gore's Tag Team tournament - except that there will be individual teams in the fray too, who will give the Tag Team Action Heroes a real run for their money.

So sit back with your beers, relive the moments when each of the following Action movie characters lit up your screens, and choose the Action movie characters you liked the best.


First match coming up in a few...

yayyyy I say McClane takes it all.

same.


...........

I say he has a very good chance.

However, it depends on who his partner is. ;)

GONG!

rocky and jake, sans hesitation.

I dare say none of the matches will be a shutout, unless its a tag-team with overwhelming support.



5-3, Balboa & LaMotta still leading over Team Van Damme.

How many votes are these matches going to my fine letter-baring friend?

Until we have a clear winner.

I think this one still has a lot of steam left...so I m letting it continue.


5-3 to Balboa & LaMotta so far.

LaMotta and Rocky.

6-3, Rocky Balboa & Jake LaMotta punch through Kurt Sloane & Frank Dux to steam on ahead.
