Round 4 Summation - Meg Ryan got spanked 15 times by Tom Hanks and is off to find a bucket of ice to sit in. Sandra Bullock and John Cusack slipped away from their partners Arnie & Ken and I send James Stewart through on a casting vote in place of Ben Kingsley. 

There were 8 sets of votes in that round and @Rachel Stevens on a Pogo Stick, @quickbeam & @Necro get their 100% badges with 4 missing out by 1 vote. Speaking of 1 vote @DejaBoo & @Spears only graced us with their presence once apiece. 

@quickbeam was quick off the mark 4 times to vote first. 


==============================================

Round 5 Preview - We are now down to the last 32 and I expect weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth as favourite are matched against favourite tie after tie. We have just 5 ladies in amongst the gentlemen. I wont ruin all the surprises but the ladies have all avoided clashing so in theory there might still be 5 in the last 16. Or there might not. 

Be strong! Make the right choice. Rule with your heart and not your head - after all this is the movies!

Toast - Gene Wilder was well and truly burnt to a crisp. Kiefer Sutherland did little butter, I mean better. After a great start Brad Pitt got burnt on the other side and Helena BC raises a glass to gorgeous George. 

Guess who's coming to dinner - Sandy Bullock (such a glamorous name dont y'all think) will wine and dine Sherlock Holmes. Leo gets to eat with the Hoff, no not that one, the other one. Steve McQueen gets to make small talk while John Malkovich is being John Malkovich. Jack will need to be at his shining best as he has a fava bean and chianti supper with Sir Tony no less.

The secret of my success - Benedict Cumberbatch caught Sandra Bullock on the blind side with a 2 vote win. Dustin Hoffman graduates to the last 16 at the expense of Brad Pitt as my casting vote proved to be his achilles heel. John Malkovich looked to be in the line of fire but has survived his skirmish with Steve McQueen who has to make his getaway. There was a chorus of disapproval when Anthony Hopkins was taken out but will this be as good as it gets for jack Nicholson? 

Risky business - Sammy J and Robbie R duke it out for the win and little miss Winona meets big tough Robert De. Scotland and England meet head to head but will Connery have a surprise up his kilt for Rickman. JLC takes on RDJ in the final tie of the set.

Samuel L. Jackson v Robert Redford

Robert De Niro v Winona Ryder - abstain as I really don't know Winona's body of work that well, although my inclination is definitely Bobby.

Sean Connery v Alan Rickman - That was a tough one to choose between.

Jamie Lee Curtis v Robert Downey Jnr

Things getting severe now

Samuel L. Jackson

Sean Connery v Alan Rickman - abstain on this one, I want to vote for Connery and at the same time don't want to vote against Rickman
