MTV Presents: The FFF/SBD Super Sweet Sixteen!

Welcome to another joint edition of the Friday Film Fiesta and the So Bad, Dudes Tournament!

Today we will be unveiling the SWEET SIXTEEN of the So Bad, Dudes Tournament as well as checking out the latest news around Hollywood... like we do every week. So let's get to it!

There was no poll last week since I got Writer's Block after doing an insane amount of character writeups for the tournament.

-- Trailer Time: New trailers released this week include Judge Dredd reboot Dredd, Taken 2, which features The Most Interesting Man in the World, and what should be a fantastic edition of the cWo Roundtable Series, the new Twilight sequel! And also Monster's University
-- In Theaters This Week: Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, Brave, and Seeking a Friend for the End of the World
-- Next Week's Notable DVD Releases: 21 Jump Street, Wrath of the Titans, and Mirror Mirror

-- The big news of the week is Jim Carrey dropping out of Dumb and Dumber To, and the project being subsequently canceled
-- Screened asks why The Blair Witch Project is the best "found footage" movie
-- What happened to Adam Sandler?

-- Disney is already facing several lawsuits over Brave
-- Sesame Street is heading to the big screen
-- In TV news, we have a slew of images from the next season of The Walking Dead and the next season of Breaking Bad

And that brings us to this week's poll.

Are you glad Dumb and Dumber To is dead?
Yes
No
There's still a chance!

And now, to the Sweet Sixteen we go!

THE FIGHT FOR THE RIGHT REVERSE BATTLE ROYAL MATCH BRACKET

VS.

[1] EL GIGANTE/GIANT GONZALES VS. [5] KURRGAN

The tournament’s number one overall seed El Gigante had a more difficult time making it to the Sweet Sixteen than you would think, only defeating the Boogeyman 8-5. His opponent is Kurrgan, who also defeated Kenzo Suzuki by a score of 8-5.

VS.

[11] PHINEAS I. GODWINN/MIDEON VS. [2] NATHAN JONES

The only So Bad, Dude named after a farm animal advances to the Sweet Sixteen after upsetting the third seed Reese/The YET-TAY by a vote of 8-5. His opponent is the second seeded Nathan Jones, who makes his way to the Sweet Sixteen after destroying Giant Silva 10-3.

THE RUSSO’S REVENGE TRIPLE CAGE MATCH BRACKET

VS.

[1] DINO BRAVO VS. [4] ERIK WATTS

Cyke’s obsession with the number two carries over to the man he supported to win it all, Dino Bravo. Not only is Dino the number two overall seed, he also makes it to the Sweet Sixteen winning the second most lopsided vote of the second round, defeating Horace Hogan 11-2. His opponent is Erik Watts, who barely survived Prince Albert-Train Tensai’s hentai wrath 7-6.

VS.

[11] TUGBOAT/TYPHOON/SHOCKMASTER VS. [10] HORNSWOGGLE

It’s a battle of double digit seeds in our next matchup. Typhoonboat SHOCKED THE WORLD by defeating Bastion Booger 7-6. His opponent, Hornswoggle, upset the 2 Seed Van Hammer by a vote of 8-5, giving Sitcom Fans yet another moral victory over the Butler Brothers.

THE PUNJABI PRISON MATCH BRACKET

VS.

[1] THE GREAT KHALI VS. [5] DAVID FLAIR

The tournament’s overall number three seed The Great Khali makes his way to the Sweet Sixteen after delivering a 9-4 brain chop to Zeus. It was so bad that Zeus’ eye went back to normal. He goes up against David Flair, who defeated Justin Credible 12-1 in the most lopsided vote of the second round.

VS.

[14] UNCLE ELMER VS. [15] THE INSANE CLOWN POSSE

In yet another upset, Uncle Elmer defeated higher seeded Tiger Ali Singh 7-6, while the Insane Clown Posse also upset 7 Seed Steve “Mongo” McMichael by a tally of 10-3, continuing their quest to find out just how magnets work.

THE KENNEL FROM HELL MATCH BRACKET

VS.

[1] HEIDENREICH VS. [4] THE HARRIS BROTHERS

Overall number four seed makes his way to the Sweet Sixteen by kicking Zack Gowen’s leg out from under his leg 8-5. The Harris Brothers, his opponents, proved that the world is NOT Sylvan, defeating, umm, Sylvan by a vote of 10-3.

VS.

[14] TED ARCIDI VS. [2] ORLANDO JORDAN

14 Seed Ted Arcidi continues his quest to the SBD Finals, coming to the Sweet Sixteen after defeating Prince Nakamaki. Meanwhile, Orlando Jordan SWERVED his way into a victory over Vince Russo. Presumably by doing something like this:
