First Round of the Ultimate Dance Bracket
The winners of these will move on to face the top sixteen seeds, each of whom earned a bye. They will remain unknown until the results for these are tallied, although with a little bit of thinking, you can pick out who the top seeds are from those which are absent.
Now, I realize I've forgotten a thousand other performances from random TV episodes and obscure movies, but I apologize. I opened this up to you people, and combined the best you submitted to me, so while these may not be the best dancing performances of all time, it will most definitely mark the best performance that any of us in the 17-20 year old bracket have seen and enjoyed. So put your votes on the comments, I'll tally the results after a few days and we'll move on to the round of thirty-two just in time for Easter Break.
(I suggest copying the following pairings, pasting them into comments and then just deleting the loser. If you haven't seen one or both of the performances, don't vote or just pick the one you think you'd like most. This isn't an exact science, it's fun, so enjoy.)
