Tom and the MI gang are 2/2 in the first round, while Vin and the Fast boys have rebounded to win their last two following their heartbreaking first loss.

There are now two battles left for each region, so we will now go in order to close out each one. Region 1 is up first.

Next battle up shortly.

Dracula’s favorite Bond is Quantum of Solace. Doomsday’s favorite movie is The Dark Knight. Those battles coming soon. Right, donny?
