A rather lacklustre performance by Samwise, but take nothing against Túrin who came out firing on all cylinders when it mattered the most and made the upset happen. 10-6 it finished. The semifinals will begin tomorrow if I got more time on my hands than I did today. Maybe then Gandalf's hippie credentials and the contents of his pipe will be cleared up once and for all?

You are all monsters! You eliminated the best character ever.

Beleg-Boromir-Gandalf-Turin
The final four are all awesome. A Boromir-Gandalf clash would be great, as we could argue who had the better approach to the Ring. But a Beleg-Turin deathmatch would be great as well- friends forced to do battle. Or perhaps a cross-age championship? Silmarillion versus LotR? Fun, fun, fun.

Beleg-Boromir is intriguing, but Gandalf has
to be a humongous favorite and with Gollum and Frodo gone it's doubtful the final is really competitive. As they say in sports (like the ncaa basketball tournament) it's all a matter of matchups.
