Bracket Feed Drop - SEMIFINALS

[0:00] Well, here we are, this is the final feed drop before we will be able to announce the

[0:10] winner of the Flophouse Bonus Commentary Bracket.

[0:16] Yet again, to remind you, this is where we've been running polls on Twitter.

[0:22] We started out with, I believe, 16 Flophouse favorites.

[0:26] Some of the worst-slash-best, good-bad, as we say, movies that we've watched for the

[0:32] podcast, and we were trying to winnow it down to one that we would do as a special DVD commentary

[0:39] style listen-along track that you could listen to while watching one of these movies.

[0:46] And so the final two matchups have closed out, and we can announce that, thanks to Stuart's

[0:56] shameless electioneering that I will be taking up with the various governmental oversight

[1:05] committees, Foodfight has lost.

[1:09] Foodfight has lost, and the Country Bears have won.

[1:13] Country Bears came out 42.3%, to Foodfight's 47.7%.

[1:21] So, you know, Stuart put that thumb on the scale, and he's been bulking up in pandemic

[1:28] times going to the gym.

[1:30] That thumb was heavy enough that he was able to influence this, and then, of course, perhaps

[1:38] the most foregone conclusion of the bracket continues to roll along, Cats wins over Tango

[1:45] and Cash.

[1:47] It was close, it was 51.4% to 48.6%.

[1:54] So that means that the finals will be, of course, Cats vs. Bears.

[2:00] Cats vs. Bears to see not which is the best animal, but which movie we will be commenting

[2:08] on.

[2:09] And so I don't want to put, you know, I don't want to say either way what I hope, I don't

[2:14] particularly have a dog in this fight to bring in a third animal.

[2:21] I'd be happy doing a track for either one, but there's been a lot of anti-Cat sentiment

[2:28] out there, and obviously a lot of pro-Cat sentiment, because the anti-Cat sentiment

[2:34] has not been enough to stop the juggernaut that is Cats.

[2:39] So here's what it is.

[2:42] On this coming Monday, let me look at my calendar just to check what Monday that is, what the

[2:48] date is this coming Monday, the 21st of March, that will be the final Twitter poll.

[2:56] I'm sorry that you do have to go to Twitter to do this.

[2:59] If you hate it, I understand, sign up, do this, sign out, forget about it.

[3:06] You can decide whether it will be Cats or the Country Bears, and if you love Cats, this

[3:15] is your chance.

[3:17] If you hate Cats, this is your chance to stop Cats.

[3:21] If you love the Country Bears, I don't want to make it a negative choice, if you love

[3:25] the Country Bears, you can vote for the Country Bears.

[3:28] But this is your final chance to make this decision, this swing the way that you would

[3:33] like it to go.

[3:35] And I think I'm going to leave up the poll for two days rather than one, just to make

[3:41] sure we can get as many votes as people who want to vote.

[3:47] So for now, which will it be, Cats or the Country Bears?

[3:55] So first, your memory I'll jog, and say a cat is not a bear.
