Dissect My Brain - CONTEST UPDATE!

So here it is: what appears to be THE very last Dissect My Brain contest ever! (At least in the Union Weekly.) Before I talk about this final contest, let's recap.

Last year's winner was D.J. Watts with a caption contest:



His caption turned out to be way different compared to what the strip ended up being about. He won this lovely prize package: the entire Dissect My Brain Season Two, and a personal comic strip:


I've made sure to make it small enough so that no one can read it. And now on to the Season Three contests!

CONTEST ONE:

The first contest was figuring out which two roles I played in the Oak Street Blues video:
"The Masked Pumpkin Saves The Day!":



No one was able to figure it out, but for being the one person who actually attempted it, Joe Mallari is winning a prize for this contest! He was able to determine I was "Biff, the Groping Henchmen." The other character I played was The Spaceman in the last third of the movie, which I realize is kind of a tough one. The only hint that I was the spaceman was when I actually speak.

CONTEST TWO:

The second contest is figuring out what the Masduh CZ-2 was physically based after. The strip itself was parodying the Mazda CX-5 and how there was an advertisement for The Lorax movie (an adaptation of a very environmental book, mind you) promoting a sports utility vehicle.

However, the Masduh CZ-2 looks nothing like the Mazda CX-5.



I eventually realized that this was also a hard one, and I had to give the hint that it was from "a popular TV show." When that wasn't enough, I just flat out told people: "it's from The Simpsons."



Armando Garcia would get the answer right. It was the Canyonero, from The Simpsons episode, "The Last Temptation of Krust."

FINAL CONTEST:

And so it is upon us: the final contest for Dissect My Brain. The winner of this one will win a big prize. The winner will be announced on Monday, September 10, 2012!

Here is the prompt:

And here are the finalists! 

Some of these people submitted more than one, but I ended up just choosing the ones I felt were the best.

Blaine:

Calvin:

Chris Hall:

Plummer:

Irene:

Kelly:

There was one more entry that I really liked from my friend Isaac, that went:

Kevin: so, you wanted to talk?
Kelly: yeah..I'm pregnant..
Kevin: not if my FIST has anything to do with it.. *ka-pow*

But sadly, the caption begins with Kelly speaking. That one could've honestly been THE winner!

Instead, I feel I have some evenly matched ones. Which one will win?
Perhaps I'll let facebook help me decide.

Till next time friends, remember:
