March 11, 2012 at 11:04 AM · Oh boy, some really tough decisions coming up!
March 11, 2012 at 11:51 AM · Wow, this is gonna be fun! I foresee an epic battle between Haunted Mansion and Pirates to see which one goes up against FJ for the big prize. I'm not placing any bets on either of those votes :-)
March 11, 2012 at 12:35 PM · The Voyage is the only non-Disney/Universal/SeaWorld attraction left. The rest of the world has their rally cry: "Go Holiday World!"
March 11, 2012 at 1:13 PM · Oh crap. TSM is gonna get mauled by FJ.
March 11, 2012 at 2:23 PM · These are some really good mach ups I mean spider man vs tot,hanted mansion vs spash mountain, Hulk vs manta and toy story vs harry potter
I'm voting till the end for spider man and Toy story but if they get head to head I'm going for spider man
March 11, 2012 at 2:35 PM · I agree Gio. Spiderman in HD is just flat out amazing and better than TSM.
March 11, 2012 at 4:22 PM · Manta is the only thing I know I will definitely vote for. Everything else is pretty tough.
March 11, 2012 at 4:25 PM · Interesting to 1/4 of the attractions left are from IOA. Though I can't think how PF's long can hold on much longer.

As great as PotC is Popeye and Bluto should give that ride a good run.

As I do see Manta sending Hulk back for some more gamma rays

But it will be interesting to see how many voters take into account Spidey's upgrades albeit most will view it online in a collosual battle with ToT

March 11, 2012 at 4:33 PM · I'd like to thank everyone for their participation as we got through what were, let's face it, the preliminaries.

This is where the real fun starts, with some truly awesome matchups over the next three weeks. You've set this up well with your preliminary votes. Let's enjoy the tournament going forward.

March 11, 2012 at 7:33 PM · I think I've figured out what I'm voting for:

Monday, March 12
It's Tough to Be a Bug!

Haunted Mansion

Mickey's PhilharMagic

Thursday, March 15
The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man

Semifinals

Thursday, March 22
Face it, we all know Phillarmagic is gonna win this.

Friday, March 23
Manta

Monday, March 26
Spiderman or TOT

Tuesday, March 27
Fantasmic will probably win.

Wednesday, March 28
Voyage

Thursday, March 29
Haunted Mansion

March 12, 2012 at 8:24 AM · It looks like this round has more balanced match-ups. This is going to be good.
March 12, 2012 at 11:49 PM · Some brutally difficult choices coming up...
March 13, 2012 at 9:45 AM · Am I the only one who finds it wierd that ToT is not favored in any comments ? I still think that it is a good mix of thrill and theme ? Plus it has been around for a while, and it (in my opinion) still is better then all of the new rides out now !
