Wishes (MK) vs. IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth (Ep)--Not even close for me.

Haunted Mansion (DL) vs. Twilight Zone Tower of Terror (DHS)

Indiana Jones Adventure: Temple of the Forbidden Eye (DL) vs. Tomorrowland Transit Authority (MK)--toughest pick for me. I love TTA, but Indiana Jones was probably the highlight of our DL trip. Awesome ride!

Haunted Mansion (MK) vs. Splash Mountain (MK)--Again, not even remotely close for me.

This is typically the part where I tell you to get your votes in because there are plenty of close matches still hanging in the balance...only it ain't necessarily so this time.

As can often happen with unbalanced brackets (i.e., brackets with no prior seeding), the later rounds can see more blowouts than you would expect (since certain corners of the bracket might have been initially populated with much stiffer competition than others). That's pretty much the situation now.

Basically, we have IllumiNations, Tower, Indy and Splash with comfortable leads at the moment and looking like Final Four locks. Each of those four is up by between 7-11 votes. Still, if anyone can scrounge up a dozen friends to vote with them, these matches could potentially go the other way.

Regardless, this round ends Tuesday night, so vote...or don't vote...now!

As noted earlier, Round 4 turned out to be a bit of a dud. There was no real excitement in any of these matches.

Interestingly (to me), we'll have 4 different parks represented in the Final Four. Magic Kingdom brought 4 attractions into this round, but only Splash Mountain emerged. IllumiNations and DHS's Tower were the last hopes for their parks entering this round, and both moved on pretty easily. And out west, Indiana Jones is the last man standing at Disneyland.

Sadly, the hope of a same-attraction final died this round, with both Haunted Mansions getting the boot.

Results:

IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth (Ep) def. Wishes (MK) 20-7

Twilight Zone Tower of Terror (DHS) def. Haunted Mansion (DL) 17-10

Indiana Jones Adventure: Temple of the Forbidden Eye (DL) def. Tomorrowland Transit Authority (MK) 17-10

Splash Mountain (MK) def. Haunted Mansion (MK) 19-8

So we come to the Final Four. Splash Mountain and Tower of Terror are Florida classics and both have won this event before.

On the underdog side, we have plucky IllumiNations carrying the banner for all fireworks shows and Epcot lovers, while Indiana Jones represents a whole resort by himself.

Not gonna BS here, these picks are all emotion. I want to see something NEW win this thing, not the same old Dukes and UCLA's we get every year. I actually do like IllumiNations over Tower, but Indy-Splash is very hard. In 4 dimensions, I'd probably lean to Splash. Online, I'm taking the new kid.
