The Feast of Fools! back from WDW- be on the look out for trip report

[scoot241]

Sounds to me like Wall-E was the winner of this segment. Go Wall-E!

 

[onelilspark]

So I think I'm squarley in the Wall-E camp. That sunglasses photo cracked me up.

I think Chewy is a little too harry still.

Uter is a strong candidate though, I mean, he does have candy and it is Food & Wine Fest...

Btw...is it wrong that I'm looking forward to this every day now???

 

[hmgray95]

I think I'm pulling for Wall-E now.....he just exhibits so much emotion in his photos!

 

[PNO4TE]

I, too, am rooting for Wall-E. I don't know Uter and I think Chewie is just too hairy to take to a place where you will be eating and drinking!

 

[*KeepMovingForward*]

I'm voting for Uter just because I think he would really know how to enjoy F&W! (So what if he's underage)

 

[Ms. Heimlich]

Whilst I thought "princess Chewie" was one of the best photographs we have seen in this competition, I still feel Chewie doesn't have what it takes to go far in the business.

Ash was the clear LOSER in this challenge. Stand next to a prop??? Geez, any mascot can do that... I just don't see emotion there!



I, too am loving your PTR and ANTM!!!

Question:

When you inform the losing mascot of your decision do you line them up, give a long speech, and hand them photos of themselves so they can walk over to the side and jump up and down and cry (or leak hydrolic fluid?) when you call their names?

 

[MRYPPNS]

Chewie looked really impressive today in his photograph! Wall-E is doing much better than I ever thought he would....but does he have that "it" factor? I don't know. Go Uter! He's like the Susan Doyle of ANTM!

He was the only one really able to hold onto a prop. Chewie and Üter looked mighty fine in their hats though.

I'm glad you're looking forward to it. When I was planning it I was wondering if this would only be funny to me.

Robots emoting! Time to take down Skynet.

Everyone's concerned about Chewie's fur. Poor little walking carpet

Underage? (I first read that as Üterage) More booze for me then

Yeah, Ash bummed me out on this one. He holds his own props, but won't hold others.

"There are 4 mascots standing in front of me, but I only have 3 photos in my hands. The mascot who is not called must return to their room and unpack their bags, as they will not be leaving for WDW"

Another Wall-E fan here, he's the whole package!

He seems to be a new popular one, since Mr. PH was booted.

 

[jeminni]

I'm still rooting for Chewwie. So what about his fur getting in the way, we all have bad hair days.

Especially in WDW with the humidity messing up everyone's coif.

_____________________________________​

And now it's time to see who will be the third contestant eliminated on:​

Only 3 contestants remain, and they will be judged posing with food;



_____________________________________




Here are their best photographs:




_____________________________________

Üter

• Doesn't connect well with the camera
• Easy to focus on in photos, while still getting the food in the shot
• Holds props ok-ish

Chewbacca

• Is able to connect with the camera
• Easy to focus on in photos, while still getting the food in the shot
• Doesn't really hold props well

Wall*E

• Is able to connect with the camera
• Easy to focus on in photos, while still getting the food in the shot
• Holds props well

_____________________________________​

And now for the elimination:

The third contestant to be eliminated on America's Next Top Mascot is:

Üter

While Üter is defidently a mascot who would enjoy the foodie goodness of F&WF, I might have to share my treats with him too much. I also found that when taking photos of him it was sometimes difficult to get him in focus and the background/props as well. And his eyes, while adorably wonky, don't really focus on anything around him, so he never seems to be interacting with things the way Chewie and Wall*E do.

And so we must bid a fond fairwell to our chubby little friend.



_____________________________________

Tomorrow, on America's Next Top Mascot:

The final two battle it out in a multi-photograph/ multi-post challenge to see who will be:

_____________________________________​

Authors Note: I did many photographs around Disneyland, and these are the best ones for each Mascot. Infact for all of the "challenges" throughout the week all of the contestants participated, so their elimination is not based solely on one photo, but actually on a cumulative portfolio. I have to be comfortable working with them in all scenarios. It just seems more fun to post it this way. Hope I didn't destroy the fantasy of it for you.

Poor Uter!

 

[Ms. Heimlich]

I believe I will be joining "team Wall-E" after todays elimination.

 

[Shenanigoat]

Poor Uter!

I know I just wish he would have connected with the camera more. He looked so removed from things.

I believe I will be joining "team Wall-E" after todays elimination.

I think I'm totally bumming everyone out with my choices. The last two standing are the only ones who really "connect" with the camera.

 

[hmgray95]

Go Team Wall-E!!

 

[TigerKat]

Not bumming me, I've been a Wall-E fan since the beginning!!! Woot Woot Team Wall-E!!!!!!!!

 

[onelilspark]

So I wonder how much of Chewey's hair you had to pick out of your meal and if that'll factor into your decision...
