My vote goes to the amazing Michelle Pfeiffer!

[Nate6]

Agreed, Michelle Pfeiffer.

[Mike]

I like this tournament Ideal... I was thinking of doing one, since their was already one for the males but not the females (which I won't deny, the idea of a female tournament sounds a little more appealing, but that's just because I prefer to look at them more ;). Anyway, I'm glad you did it because I actually didn't feel like it, I just wanted one to be made.

Although I must say, Nooooooooooooo!!!! Where's NAOMI WATTS!? I want my NAOMI WATTS!!!

Sorry, but I just love her and I can't believe she's not in the tournament :(.

Oh well, my pick for the current match is the lovely and talented Michelle Pfeiffer. Oh, by the way, it also wouldn't have hurt to include Catherine Keener. But don't worry, there's a lot of actresses out there, so I can understand that you didn't remember to include them all. Although Naomi Watts seemed like an obvious one to me ;)...

[idealdiscountdude]

I totally forgot that I was gonna put Catherine Keener in the tourney! I'll add Naomi Watts just for ya to Mike, and a few others!

[Puck Bond]

Michelle Pfeiffer

Aww, thanks so much Ideal. You kick ass! I love ya man (but not in a sexual way ;)).

VS.

Elisabeth Shue

http://ia.imdb.com/media/imdb/01/I/52/36/12m.jpg

I'm a big fan of both actresses, but Angela Bassett gets my vote!

[Tom Samborski]

Angela Bassett

[Damned Martian]

Angela Bassett

[Nate6]

The great, but bitchy, Angela Bassett.

[arto_j]

Elizabeth for me. Just for Leaving Las Vegas.

[The Other]

Angela Bassett. I agree with Nate, she does come off as a bitch though.

But, I think Holly Hunter and Susan Sarandon deserved their Oscars the years they won against those two...so...yea.

[charliebobo]

Elizabeth Shue

[Reagan]

Angela Basset

[dannywalker17]

Angela Bassett

[Ren Hoek]

Angela Bassett

[POLYDISTORTION]

VS.

His lovely ex-wife and 2 Time Academy Award Nominee
Nicole Kidman

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0203009/Batch_3_25.jpg

My vote goes to the always great Nicole Kidman!

[Jason Voorhees]

I had a change of heart about Penelope, but I still prefer Nicole.

[Rob Gordon]

Penelope is okay, but Nicole is hot, smart, and talented.

[urbanlegend23]

I like Nicole Kidman more so she gets my vote. But I also enjoy Penelope Cruz, who doesn't deserve the universal hate she gets.

[The Claw]

Nicole Kidman

[Cole666]

Nicole!!!

[Rated R]

Nicole is the lesser of two evils

[Sad man]

NICOLE KIDMAN!!!!!...My favourite actress at the moment.
Who was the other one?...Penelope what???

[Ren Hoek]

Nicole Kidman

[Puck Bond]

Nicole Kidman

[Buck Turgidson]

Penelope Cruz

[Horror whore]

I can't stand Penelope, she looks like a diseased squirrel. I vote for Nicole.

[mrdeeds]

Nicole

[Nate6]

Nicole Kidman...

[Mike]

My vote goes to Nicole Kidman...

And by the way, I am just outraged that Elisabeth Shue lost ;). I like her better than Basset. Man, Shue needs to get in some more movies soon, she hasn't been working much.

[Nate6]

Originally posted by Mike

Did she go back to college to become a brain surgeon or something? Or is that someone else? Oh, I'm too tired...

[Hannibal21]

NICOLE KIDMAN is my favorite actress. We're madly in love although she doesn't know it, she's also the most gorgeous woman in Hollywood right now so my vote DEFINITELY goes to her and not that cunt Penelope Cruz.

[Annie Hall]

For my friend Hannibal, and for the purposes of this tournament...

my vote goes to--

http://www.celebrity-exchange.com/celebs/photos35/nicole-kidman.jpg

[idealdiscountdude]

Nicole wins 16-1

Next Match:

"The Battle Of The Sex Kittens" (IMO of Course! :))

The sexy Halle Berry

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0246460/D-804_9453.jpg

VS.

The Hot Sharon Stone

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0112641/fcsbat_0084.jpg

My vote goes to the beautiful and talented, Oscar winning actress Halle Berry!

[Nate6]

Halle is the epitome of sexy, extremely talented women.

[Ren Hoek]

Sharon Stone was great in BASIC INSTINCT, CASINO and THE MUSE... and I can think of only one real good performance by Halle Berry (MONTER'S BALL). On the other hand, Halle is a real hottie. However, I'm voting for SHARON STONE

P.S.: Ain't it ironic that one of Halle's first parts in a mainstream movie was a character called Sharon Stone (THE FLINTSTONES)? :D

[mrdeeds]

Halle Berry get my vote and undivided attention

[Buck Turgidson]

Halle Berry. By ten miles.

[arto_j]

Halle, I guess.

[charliebobo]

Halle

[Kimmy]

sharon of cours

[Damned Martian]

Halle Berry by a (black) hair

[Hannibal21]

Halle Berry of course!

BTW, Annie, you can't imagine how much I love you for that pic of Nicole! :D Which website do you find those pictures, may I ask? :cool:

[urbanlegend23]

Halle Berry

[Horror whore]

Sharon Stone really freaks me out so I'll vote for Halle Berry.

[Moviefan1234]

Sharon Stone

[idealdiscountdude]

Halle wins 10-3!

Next Match:

The Actress/Singer, Singer/Actress Round

Academy Award Nominee Queen Latifah

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0299658/DF-1120F.jpg

VS.

Ms.Ben Affleck, Jennifer "J.Lo" Lopez

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0120780/AU20_2_02.jpg

Tough match IMO...I really like J.Lo, she has given some great performances however they were all pre-2000...lately she hasn't been that great. My vote goes to Queen Latifah who has thus far not let me down in a film.....from 1995's underrated Set It Off to 2002's Chicago....she's great!

[Moviefan1234]

Jennifer Lopez

[Ren Hoek]

Queen Latifah ...don't think she's a great actress, but her performance in CHICAGO war quite impressive (and I loathe J.Lo :mad:)

[arto_j]

Jennifer Lopez

[charliebobo]

Jennifer Lopez, for Out Of Sight and Selena

[The Other]

I don't really care for either of them...but I'll go with Queen Latifah (though her Oscar nomination is a joke!)

[Damned Martian]

Miss J.Lo

[Nate6]

Queen Latifah...she was terrific in Chicago.

[dh1989]

Jennifer Lopez is a much better actress! Latifah is usually quite annoying(CHICAGO!), but I hope she has a brighter future(BRINGING DOWN THE HOUSE!).

[Rob Gordon]

Jennifer Lopez is hotter, Queen Latifah is far more talented.

[POLYDISTORTION]

Queen Latifah

[SubMethod]

Queen Latifah

[Mike]

I like both, but I'll go with Jennifer Lopez, who actually is a good actress, despite what some people say.

I'm still disappointed Sharon Stone didn't win. I like Halle Berry, but I like Stone better. She was great and sexy in BASIC INSTINCT.

[idealdiscountdude]

Queen Latifah wins 8-5

Next Match:

Battle of The Greats

Meryl Streep

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0268126/fp-14.jpg

VS.

Kathy Bates

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0120257/8

Both are superb actresses, but my vote has to go to the "Queen of the Accents", Ms.Meryl Streep!

[urbanlegend23]

I can't stand Meryl Streep, and her feet are disgusting...:(

Kathy Bates indefinitely.

[SubMethod]

Meryl Streep, but both are great.

[Damned Martian]

Both great, but Misery's nº1 fan gets my vote: Kathy Bates

[arto_j]

Meryl Streep

Best actress ever.

[Ren Hoek]

Annie Wilkes... er.... Kathy Bates

[charliebobo]

Meryl Streep. Not even close

[Jason Voorhees]

Kathy Bates.

[Hannibal21]

Mery Streep is a great actres................

but Kathy Bates is the GREATEST actress working today! Kathy is superb in all of her films, she frightened me in Misery as Annie Wilkes, cracked me up in Titanic, gave two great performances in Dolores Claiborne and Fried Green Tomatoes, and makes bad movies seem good with her performances (The Waterboy and North being the best examples). My god need I say more? I'm a fan of the greatest actress working today, KATHY BATES!!!

[Buck Turgidson]

Meryl.

[mrdeeds]

Meryl Streep

[Nate6]

No question, Meryl Streep.

[idealdiscountdude]

Close Match, but Meryl wins 7-5

Next Match:

Battle Of The Indie Darlings

Parker Posey

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0295238/personal_3_big.jpg

VS.

Catherine Keener

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0258273/pic_02_300dpi.jpg

Hard choice, I'm a huge fan of both, but Catherine Keener gets my vote.

[Nate6]

Agreed. The painfully underrated Catherine Keener wins this one for me...

[Damned Martian]

Catherine Keener by a mile, she's one of the greatest american actress right now.

[Moviefan1234]

Catherine Keener

[Ren Hoek]

Catherine Keener

[Jason Voorhees]

Catherine Keener.

[Tom Samborski]

Catherine Keener

[Mike]

I absolutely love the incredibly talented and beautiful Catherine Keener. She's so "lovely and amazing" ;). She easily gets my vote without hesitation.

[idealdiscountdude]

Catherine wins 8-0

Next Match:

2002 Academy Award Nominees Round One

Renee Zellweger


http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0299658/0299658.JPG

VS.

Julianne Moore

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0297884/far_from_heaven_3.jpg

My vote definetly goes to Julianne Moore. Renee is great, but Julianne has never ever given a bad performance, she's excellent!

[dh1989]

Julianne Moore is one of the best actresses working today, so she gets my vote, but I like Renee also, she was amazing in "Nurse Betty", but Moore is a tad better.

[SubMethod]

Julianne Moore

[Jason Voorhees]

Julianne Moore.

[AngelaHayes]

Renee's voice annoys me, plus she seems very 'false' to me (& horrifyingly thin!). I love Julianne Moore, she's beautiful, talented and doesn't scream for attention - i don't know anything about her private life, and i don't want to. Don't you find that the more (hehe moore - look at me punning) you know about an actor/actress the harder it is to find them believable on screen?

[Ren Hoek]

Julianne Moore ...a beautiful woman and an exceptional actress

[Mike]

Damn it, why did these two have to go up against eachother? Well, I'd like to see them up against eachother, but not in this way :p...

Anyway, if I absolutely must choose, I will say JULIANNE MOORE. She's so beautiful, talented, and seems very down to earth. I think she'd be a real sweetheart, which makes me love her even more (haha, I made a pun too ;)). Some of the stories she tells on talk shows are so funny. She's just so charming. Man, I love this woman. How can you not love her? She seems so real and not at all fake...

[Moviefan1234]

I like both, and since Ms. Zellweger is getting blown away, I'll vote for her.

[Mike]

I have a question Ideal:

For round 2, will the actresses be paired up in the order they won?

If that's the case, then this would be it so far:

Meg Ryan vs. Michelle Pfeiffer
Angela Bassett vs. Nicole Kidman
Halle Berry vs. Queen Latifah
Meryl Streep vs. Catherine Keener

If that's the order they will be paired up in, then so far I'll only have one real hard decision to make (Meg vs. Michelle :(). I just hope Naomi Watts doesn't go up against another actress I love, because I'm not very good at making tough decisions ;).

Next Match:

Thelma Geena Davis

Louise Susan Sarandon

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0280760/1546.jpg (I loved this scene from Igby Goes Down!)

(For some reason I couldn't find any pics of the two from the film. :()

I love both actresses equally in the film, but when looking at their overall skills, Susan Sarandon wins this easily. She's superb.

[Nate6]

Geena Davis

Susan Sarandon, who didn't star in two Stuart Little movies.

VS.

Diane Lane

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0250797/C24-31a.jpg

My vote goes to Diane Lane one very good actress who is finally getting recognition after over 20 years in the biz.

[dannywalker17]

DIANE LANE

[dh1989]

Diane Lane is one my top ten of WORST actresses, so I'll go with Salma Hayek, especially after her turn in films like "Dogma".

[SubMethod]

Salma Hayek

[Buck Turgidson]

This game moves too fast! I've missed opportunities to vote for two of my faves (Susan and Julianne). Glad they both won...


I like Salma, a lot, but Diane is my age, and so I've had a jones for her for more years than I care to think about, plus she's quite good.

Diane Lane.

[Mike]

Originally posted by idealdiscountdude

Well, just make sure you always put Naomi Watts up against the ugliest and least untalented of actresses ;)...


http://tw.movies.yahoo.com/pic/partner/g880unfaithful.jpg

Diane Lane gave THE best performance of all of 2002 in UNFAITHFUL. She's incredibly beautiful and talented, there's no way to see otherwise. Her performance in UNFAITHFUL was simply breathtaking and I'm glad she's starting to get noticed more now. She is a great example of classic beauty. Just looking at her picture I can't help but be in awe, her beauty is timeless. I could look at a picture of her for a long time and never get tired of it, it's like looking at a mindblowing piece of art, like a painting. Now I'm not trying to sound psychotic or anything, I just think she's incredibly beautiful and flawless. Every line in her face is just perfect.

Diane Lane gets my vote for sure ;)...

[screamer581]

[arto_j]

I vote for Salma too.

[Damned Martian]

Mmmmm... tough... I think I'll go for Diane Lane

[Ren Hoek]

ah dammit, Salma Hayek is incredibly sexy... but I have to vote for the more talented actress: DIANE LANE

[Hannibal21]

Dammit why is it ALWAYS so hard to choose? I LOVE both these ladies, but since Diane Lane is the better actress, I vote for her. You are such a harsh fellow, Ideal. ;)

[AngelaHayes]

Something about Diane Lane annoys me (not sure what) but she is the better actress (haven't seen Frida yet so i have to go from what i've seen Salma in). Salma is obviously much better looking but seeing as this is for the acting side of things, Diane gets my vote.

[The Claw]

Salma Hayek

[charliebobo]

Diane wins 10-5!

Kate Winslet

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0144715/1

Both are phenomenal talents, but Kate Winslet gets my vote. (even though she stunk in The Life Of David Gale, she has been excellent in everything else!)

[dannywalker17]

I prefer Toni Collette.

[screamer581]

Kate Winslet

[dh1989]

"Titanic" is one of my favorite films of all-time, so I'll vote for KATE WINSLET, but both are nice actresses.

[Ren Hoek]

KATE WINSLET

[SubMethod]

Toni Collete

[POLYDISTORTION]

KATE WINSLET

[Nate6]

Both excellent, excellent young actresses. I'd say they're quite equal in ability.

I'm voting for Toni Collette because I think her film choices are slightly better (recently Winslet's been in some stinkers).

[Mike]

http://www.volny.cz/kate_winslet/images/photo/galerie1/12_v.jpg


Both are good actresses, but I find Winslet more attractive and would have to say that I like her more. So, my vote goes to Kate Winslet.

My vote definetly goes to Reese who is always great no matter how good or bad the film is!

[SubMethod]

Reese Witherspoon

[screamer581]

Reese

[Jason Voorhees]

Reese Witherspoon.

[Buck Turgidson]

Reese is sexier and a damn sight more talented.

[Ren Hoek]

REESE WITHERSPOON ...loved her in ELECTION. Sarah Michelle Gellar needs some curves. The look of an anorexic celery stick doesn't suit her :(

[Rob Gordon]

Reese obviously makes the better project choices, I don't think anybody could argue that. She's also probably a better actress, but I'm voting for Sarah because she's hotter, I like what I've seen from her better, and for every other reason I can think of.

[Damned Martian]

Reese

[dannywalker17]

Reese

[Hannibal21]

Although Sarah is hotter, Reese is most definitely the better actress and she chooses better material, so I go with her. But I like Sarah too.

Kirsten Dunst

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0157503/4

VS.

Julia Stiles

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0120202/1

My vote goes to Kirsten Dunst who has proven time and time again that she is not just a pretty face, but also a very talented actress, especially in comedic roles (Dick, Bring It On, The Cat's Meow, Drop Dead Gorgeous)

[Hannibal21]

Julia Stiles no question! She was great in 10 Things I Hate About You, Save the Last Dance, O, etc. She's also smokin' hot IMO and is on her way to becoming one of my favorite younger actresses.

Kirsten Dunst I dispise greatly, she overacts too much in her movies it's stupid, she's also extremely plain looking.

[Buck Turgidson]

I agree, wholeheartedly.

Julia Stiles, I love.

Kirsten... :(

[Cole666]

Kirsten Dunst

You are moving so fast with these rounds, i can't keep up.:(

[Damned Martian]

Mmmm.. i don't like much any of them..

I supose Kirsten, for the virgin suicides

[Asokan]

I would fuck 'em both, but Julia Stiles has far more edge and ambition, so my vote goes to her.

[Jason Voorhees]

Kirsten Dunst.

[Ren Hoek]

Kirsten Dunst

[Rob Gordon]

Julia Stiles. Her body of work, and IMO her body, are superior. Pure and simple.

Although I love them both, I must go with KIRSTEN DUNST. She is beautiful and very talented. I like how she takes a variety of roles and is able to pull them all off with flying colors. Her performance in the underrated CRAZY/BEAUTIFUL was simply wonderful and one of her best to date. Plus, the fact that she seems very nice and down to earth definitely helps and makes the whole package that much better.

I love them both! What a choice! but I've actually had the pleasure of talking to Julia Stiles (true story) so I'm gonna vote for her.

[idealdiscountdude]

What a close match! However Kirsten wins 10-9

Next Match:

Mother Vs. Daughter

The lovely Goldie Hawn

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0280460/c63-29a-goldie.jpg

VS.

Her radiant daughter Kate Hudson

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0199314/Batch_3_17.jpg

Although I am a huge fan of Kate, her Ma Goldie Hawn gets my vote. She's an amazing comedic actress with a very impressive body of work.

[JCPhoenix]

While Goldie Hawn has done some very nice work, nothing, NOTHING, she has ever done has come close to what I consider one of the best performances ever...Kate Hudson as Penny Lane in Almost Famous.

I'm still hoping Kate Hudson will get a chance to play a great character in a great movie soon...

So Kate Hudson gets my vote

[dannywalker17]

That's pretty tough, but I will vote for Goldie.

[Rated R]

Kate Hudson

[Mike]

Damn is this a tough choice, I love them both. Man, I guess I'll go with the lovely Kate Hudson, instead of her lovely mom Goldie Hawn. Of course, we wouldn't even have Kate if it wasn't for her mom, so maybe we should just automatically be giving Goldie the votes. Oh well, I'm going with cutie Kate.

Damn Ideal, you're too cruel ;).

[Cole666]

Kate Hudson

[SubMethod]

Kate Hudson

[screamer581]

I really like Goldie, but I'm in love with Kate, so she gets my vote.

[Damned Martian]

Daughter wins..
Kate Hudson

[Hannibal21]

Goldie by far

Kate's been getting on my nerves lately. :mad:

[charliebobo]

Goldie Hawn

[arto_j]

The extremely lovely Kate Hudson gets my vote.

[Rob Gordon]

Goldie has done more good films, but she's also done more bad. Which goes to show that she's done more movies. I'll have to go with Kate though, because so far I've loved everything she's been in, except for Gossip which I can't really blame her for.

[Jason Voorhees]

Kate Hudson.

[Ren Hoek]

Kate is a real hottie... however, her mother was a beauty too, (Have you guys seen Shampoo?), I grew up with her films and think that she's still quite attractive for her age.

Goldie Hawn

[Moviefan1234]

Kate Hudson

[Horror whore]

Goldie Hawn

[Tom Samborski]

Goldie Hawn

[Nate6]

I think I'll go with Kate.

[idealdiscountdude]

Kate wins 12-7

Next Match:

Battle Of The Blondes

The superb Joan Allen

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0208874/2

VS.

The great Glenn Close

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Events/0477-evi/close_gl.enn

Joan Allen gets my vote. She is one the best actresses working today!

[Nate6]

I also vote for the amazing, yet horrendously underrated, Joan Allen.

[SubMethod]

Joan Allen

[Ren Hoek]

Glenn Close was brilliant in FATAL ATTRACTION and DANGEROUS LIAISONS, but I was indredibly disappointed by most of her recent films. That's why I'm voting for the very talented

JOAN ALLEN

[Moviefan1234]

Joan Allen

[Shakamaker]

Joan Allen

[Mike]

I must go with the talented Joan Allen...

[Horror whore]

Glenn Close

[dannywalker17]

Joan Allen. I can't believe Glenn Close did 102 Dalmatians.

[AngelaHayes]

Definately Joan Allen. I find Glen Close extremely irritating and a very poor actress with limited range.

[Puck Bond]

Joan Allen

[idealdiscountdude]

Joan wins 10-1

Next Match:

Battle Of The Brunettes

Catherine Zeta-Jones

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0265029/july11_01.jpg

VS.

Hilary Swank

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0242252/C32-9aa.jpg

Tough call, but Catherine Zeta-Jones gets my vote. She IMO has given great performances in superb films (Chicago, Traffic) and shitty films (America's Sweethearts). Plus she's sexy as hell and has amazing screen presence.

[POLYDISTORTION]

Catherine Zeta-Jones

[Mike]

I don't care for Catherine Zeta-Jones. I don't find her attractive and I think she'd be a stuck up bitch. Her acting is "ok," but I don't think it's "that" great. I actually really like Hilary Swank though. I fell in love with her when she did The Next Karate Kid. And since then she has given some very good performances, like her great performance in Boys Don't Cry. I'm going to give my vote to the excellent Hilary Swank. Unfortunately, it's pretty much a certainty that Ms. Zeta-Jones will win :(.

[Buck Turgidson]

Hillary Swank.

It's a close call, and I'd bugger either one with a high level of enjoyment, but Hillary's (apparently) a much nicer person and a somewhat (but not by a huge amount, CZ-J has good chops, as well as a great ass...) better actor.

[Mike]

Personally, I don't see how anyone could find Catherine Zeta-Jones more attractive than Hilary Swank. Zeta-Jones has a big face and is not very good looking at all. It wouldn't be so bad if she didn't seem like a bitch, but the fact that she does only makes her less attractive. I doubt I'd think she was attractive even if she was really nice, but I would at least like her more.

God, Hilary is a good actress, no doubt Mike, but she is ghastly skinny and looks like Matt Damon with longer hair and breasts.
She is too boyish looking for my tastes.

Catherine on the otherhand is the epitomy of a beautiful woman. She is curvy, sexy, and not a twig. She reminds me of what sexy was considered back in the 50's, a woman with curves, an hourglass figure....like Marilyn Monroe. (there we go Mike :))

I know she's really skinny, but it doesn't matter to me whether or not a woman is really skinny or is curvy, women can be sexy either way. I think Sarah Rue is a very good looking woman, and she certainly doesn't look like a twig. I just don't know what it is, but Zeta-Jones looks very un-attractive to me. But LOL, I looked in one picture and I did see where you were coming from with your comment about Swank looking like Matt Damon with longer hair and breasts, however, I find her much more attractive than Matt ;).

By the way, I'm not familar with Marilyn Munroe, I only know of Marilyn Monroe ;). Sorry, I have this problem with correcting people all of the time, even myself, I'm a bit of a perfectionist.

It's alright, I wouldn't worry about it. It's easy to make mistakes when you are typing.
