Classic Movie Actor Tournament (Silent/30's Era) Round Two

After a busy first round, we get the second round kicked off with some terrific matches. The matches will start immediately after I post this and set up the polls on the right sidebar. And will run until Friday 5pm. Thanks to everyone who stopped by to vote to get this actor tourney off to a flying start. And these four matches all look like barn burners.. Gable against Keaton (don't be surprised if Keaton pulls off an upset as he has quite the fanbase).  Cagney vs Astaire..oooh. Gangster/hoofer vs hoofer supreme. Charlie Chaplin against the swashbuckling Errol Flynn. And then William Powell vs Ronald Colman. All exciting matches. Can't wait to see how it all turns out.

    "Gangster/hoofer vs hoofer supreme." I like that!
    I am of the Buster Keaton fanbase, btw..

    Ha, at this rate, William Powell may win this thing! Or else he's just had uneven pairings so far. Other than that, I think I voted the underdog in all the brackets.

    These choices are really hard! I've been looking forward to this though. So far so good!
