Mii Match - Round 2
As I posted yesterday, Sean was the big winner in the Mii Match - correctly matching 4 out of 5 Miis to their real-life counterparts. I figured I should strike while the iron is hot (read: post some more Miis before I hit my fairly low creative wall) and launch Round II of the Mii match.
The rules are the same as last time. I’ll post 5 Miis that I created on my Wii. You review and pass along your guesses in the Comments section below. The person who gets the most correct wins a special game-themed prize. If you don’t care for games - enter anyway - as there are bragging rights to be had.
For this round, I am going to keep the contest open through 7 a.m. EST Wednesday December 20th. At that point, I’ll post the results and name the winner. If we have a tie, I’ll post a playoff round to determine the tie-breaker.
In this round, there are no friends or acquaintances among the characterizations. All 5 Miis are either real-life celebrities or fictional characters.
Last thing - that pic above was inspired by Joe’s insistence that my Ali G featured in Round 1 bore a resemblance to AJ Maclean of the Backstreet Boys. That is a shot from the band’s platinum selling album - Miilenium.
Enough stalling. We’s gots to gets this show on the road, yo. Without further ado… Round 2 is on!!!

I haven’t watched Lebowski in a long, long time, but assuming this character is in that movie and you aren’t making a reference to some other Jeff Bridges movie, I’m going with Stormare as Dieter.

BTW: there is an inherent flaw in the posting of our guesses in this game - in that someone can come after Sean or I (or anyone else) and collect/post all the correct answers and win/tie. - just thought I’d point that out (but figure you already realize that)

That’s assuming you have the correct answers. Sure someone could copy you but what if you have the wrong choices. Maybe for Round 3 I’ll institute a secret bid… Although, where’s the fun in that.

Ah crap, I realize now that my #4 is wrong, although, it is a fair likeness. From the clue, I was thinking Fred Willard and not Willard Scott. You can see how I arrived at my choice. Looks like I am only 2 for 5 on this round as I’m not sure how you’d decide on a Bowie, unless you are watching Venture Brothers, but that’s who that Mii looks like to me…

I just realized mine are listed backwards, but you get the picture.

Yeah, I couldn’t figure out that “non-poet” — and the #2 is a total guess for me (was going to put “Terry O’Quinn with hair and moustache” - but figured that I would at least take a small shot at being right)
