Props to Longdong for giving me the idea to go with this. We played this same game in the X-Men: The Last Stand forum and it was very successful. (We're still voting on the last 2 mutants: http://www.superherohype.com/forums/showthread.php?t=237718)

FOR A HERO TO QUALIFY, HE/SHE MUST:

  • Be a major player in at least 3 films, and portrayed by the same actor/actress. (Movies in definite production will count as the third film.)
  • Have at least one of those 3 films a top five grossing film of the year, OR all 3 films a top 10 grossing film each year.
  • Be a 'good guy' of some sorts in at least 2 of the 3 films.
  • No more than 3 characters per franchise. Cop buddy movies will include both characters as the same person.

THE RULES:

  • Each hero starts with 10 points.
  • You are allowed to vote every 6 hours.
  • When voting, you will copy and paste the previous totals and list any previous deaths.
  • When you vote, you can +1 to two separate heroes, and -1 to two separate heroes. (For a grand total of 4 total points, on 4 separate characters.)
  • When a hero reaches 0, he is dead.
  • When there are 3 heroes left, you can vote either +1 to two heroes & -1 to one hero, or vice versa, -1 to two heros & +1 to one hero.
  • When there are 2 heroes left, you can vote +1 to one hero, and -1 to one hero.
  • The remaining hero is the victor!

Read the qualification rules at top. I stuck with actors and actresses that had already made three films, or were about to release the third film. Otherwise, I'd have too many heroes to deal with. (e.g. Bale, Kilmer & Keaton Batman, Routh Superman, Cyclops in X-Men, Liam Neeson in Phantom Menace, and on....)

The rules are only a few sentences. I don't know how to make it any simpler. :(
Just watch and you'll learn.

The rules is you must be the character in at least 3 movies. Too many characters to deal with if I include everyone with one movie, but previous franchise versions. If you had asked the average fan if Michael Keaton would be in a third Batman film after the huge success of Batman and Batman Returns, they probably would have said yes. ;)

Only Pirates 3 and Spider-Man 2 are the definite "green lights" on this list. Pirates 3 is filming and Spider-Man 2 already has trailers.

Dude make it two... at least Keaton's Batman... I mean it won't get that out of hand... Batman not on that list is a travesty
