I’ve only received rankings and the majority of write-ups from one ranker so far. Everyone will have everything turned in before Monday, right? @Alex95 @#jeah @*Chris @FrogLenzen @.Rei @~Tom~ I was planning on getting this done before I went abroad and I didn’t so I don’t realistically know if I can get this done can we have till end of the day Wednesday maybe?

Any chance you can send the rankings beforehand? And write-ups/comments of the people you believe will be ranked at the bottom? I plan to do two results post a day starting Monday. Remember you’re only required to have 100-word write-ups for your Top 10. The bottom 10 only require comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex95 Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 I was curious when our top 20 each made it to the second half of the game. Surprisingly, not a lot of the earlier saves. Though obviously the saves were in a more strategic order than simply who we like the most. Oscar Isaac - 13th Save - Andy Charlize Theron - 15th Save - Andy Josh O'Connor - 17th Save - Chris Nicholas Hoult - 32nd Save - Tom Kathryn Hahn - 36th Save - Alex Ewan McGregor - 40th Save - Chris Lisa Kudrow - 42nd Save - Andy Bryan Cranston - 46th Save - Alex Jake Gyllenhaal - 47th Save - Rei Toni Collette - 53rd Save - Tom Ethan Hawke - 62nd Save - Andy Amy Adams - 63rd Save - Andy Olivia Colman - 69th Save - Tom Saoirse Ronan - 83rd Save - Chris Sigourney Weaver - 90th Save - Tom Viola Davis - 93rd Save - Tom Julia Louis-Dreyfus - 95th Save - Rei Colin Farrell - 127th Save - Alex Andrew Garfield - 151st Save - Alex Jessica Chastain - 161st Save - Chris Andy - 5 Saves Tom - 5 Saves Chris - 4 Saves Alex - 4 Saves Rei - 2 Saves Derek - 0 Saves 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven_ Posted March 20, 2023 Author Share Posted March 20, 2023 20. SIGOURNEY WEAVER 15.83 TOM: 7 CHRIS: 14 DEREK: 16 REI: 18 ALEX: 20 ANDY: 20 TOM Quote I really wanted queen Sigourney in here for sci-fi representation in this top 20 and I am so glad it happened! Her signature role is Ellen Ripley in the Alien films, which are some of my favorite films from either the sci-fi or horror genre, but my favorite role of hers aside from that is the first role I saw her in, the eccentric Dian Fossey in Gorillas in the Mist. She had me enthralled with Dian's quest to find and protect her gorillas. The Ghostbuster films, Holes, Prayers for Bobby and Galaxy Quest are other roles I love her in. I can't go without mentioning her voice-over work as Kiri in the Avatar films, IDF's very favorite series, as well as Wall-E and Finding Dory! I love that she is one of the older female still steadily getting acting work also and she is not the traditional Hollywood beauty either. I doubt she places that high, but I'm just glad I got her here for diversity's sake! CHRIS Quote Best known for her role as Ellen Ripley in the Alien series or as Dana Barrett in Ghostbusters, she has appeared in many movies such as Avatar, Gorillas in the Mist, Working Girl, Finding Dory and Wall-E. But personally speaking, my favourite role of hers is her portrayal of Elaine Barrish in Political Animals - an incredible mini-series that was made for yours truly. There's no denying that Sigourney is a legendary actress, but out of this batch of actors, she ranks near the middle of the pack for me. DEREK Quote Kind of a random inclusion but I don't have anything against her. She's a solid actress but never one that comes to mind for me when I think of the all-time greats REI Quote I like Sigourney well enough but I wouldn't call her one of my favorite actress and for sure wouldn't have her in this Top 20. I believe I didn't nominate her because somebody sent me safety requests (was it Alex, was it Tom? I don't remember anymore). I think her most iconic role is probably that of Aliens, a film I want to believe that I watched when I was younger but then I don't have any memory about it so I might as well be one of the few people who hasn't watched an Alien film. ALEX Quote Sigourney Weaver is probably the queen of sci-fi. There are few debut leading lady performances more iconic than Sigourney Weaver coming out of nowhere and taking the world by storm as Ellen Ripley in the Alien series. She also has Ghostbusters and Avatar under her belt? Move over ladies, Sigourney Weaver has a stranglehold over sci-fi lady roles! Unfortunately for her, I'm not a big sci-fi guy! Don't get me wrong, I love the occasional Arrival or Ex Machina. But more often than not, I'm not crazy about them. I have seen the first Alien movie, the first Ghostbusters, and both Avatar movies. Alien is obviously spectacular and she was fine in the other movies for the most part. Speaking of Avatar, Weaver playing her own daughter in the sequel? Weird creative choice. Not sure if I'm down with it. Sigourney Weaver has three Oscar nominations for Aliens, Gorillas in the Mist, and Working Girl. Lol why did she receive a nomination for the Alien sequel and not the original? Of those I've seen Working Girl which is a fun movie. I was listening to a podcast the other day where Michael Urie called it the sexiest movie he's ever seen. I can't say I fully disagree! Overall though, still not all that familiar with Sigourney. Growing up I'm probably most familiar with her as the villain in Holes. Other than Alien, my favorite performances from Weaver are probably in The Ice Storm and Political Animals. I've got nothing against Sigourney, just not as big on her as anyone else in this game. ANDY Quote I enjoyed her in Avatar and of course she is known for her iconic turn in Alien. I like that she’s here for some sci-fi representation but I stan everyone else in at least one movie or show, so she is an easy last place for me unfortunately. STEVEN Quote I did not submit rankings, but I'll post my thoughts on the Top 20 as they're revealed. Sigourney Weaver was kind of a surprising inclusion in this Top 20. I didn't realize she'd have the support to make it to the end, but I'm not bothered by her addition here. I'm unfortunately not too familiar with her body of work, but of course she's a recognizable name in Hollywood. Her most well-known role is Ellen Ripley in the Alien movies, but she has achieved a lot in her acting career throughout the decades. So, it's fair that she finds a place in the end of our game here.

~Tom~ Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Not too surprised Sigourney showed up first as I knew she was top 20 fodder but in addition to her sci fi roles, I recommend everyone check out Gorillas in the Mist if they haven’t! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven_ Posted March 20, 2023 Author Share Posted March 20, 2023 FYI there were quite a few ties. I gave the higher spot to the one that outranked the other more often. In cases when it was 3-3, then whoever had the higher peak placement from all the rankings won the tiebreaker. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
