America's Got Talent S11 Power Rankings (Quarterfinals, Week 3)

Aug 24, 2016 by PowerRankings101

So, it's the final night of the Quarterfinals, and this was obviously the strongest night of talent thus far, with only one or two acts of the night truly undeserving of moving forward. So, how do they rank? Who belong in the good pile? Who belong in the great? And who belong in the Grace pile?

12. Vello Vaher- He was doing what he always does, but with some flashier lights and a pirate ship. The most exciting thing about his act was the loud sound of the red buzzer. And that's all we'll remember him by.

11. Linkin' Bridge- I wanted so badly to route for them, but I cringed all throughout. Simon hit the nail on the head, the first 3/4 were awful. But the part he got wrong was that the fourth quarter wasn't good either. The soloist was just screaming and shouting, and the message was almost too force-fed that I stopped caring. These guys are nice guys, but this performance was pitchy, unsynchronized, and pretty bad.

10. Alla and Daniel- The kid is adorable, the mom thing is sweet, but Howie was right that they didn't elevate the act. But in all, it is an immense talent, especially at the boy's age. They'll be going home, but I don't think they deserved a buzzer. I liked it.

9. Ronee Martin- Poor Ronee. Just like Moya Angela, she went too early in the night that she became forgettable by the end of the night. Her voice is great. The arrangement was boring, but she does display talent. Unfortunately, I don't think she's moving forward.

8. Julia Scotti- I really didn't love this. It was good, but nothing like we've seen her before. She toned the dial back a bit tonight, and only delivered some chuckles, no belly laughs. She'll still make it forward based on popularity, and because she is very good, but she needs to step it up, at least in my book.

7. Blake Vogt- Blake did a great job with his act, showcasing magic in yet another new way. Was it the best act of the night? No, but it totally kept my attention, and I really don't know how he did it.

6. Malevo- I enjoy the dancing, but the whips are unimpressive to me, and while it is passionate, it may be a tad too intense. But nonetheless, it is still an awesome thing to watch, and one of the most unique things we have to watch. Also, it is a small dance showing this year, so it would be nice to put through some good dance groups. This is the best AGT has to offer, and they're pretty darn good.

5. Kadan Bart Rockett- For a young kid, I was incredibly blown away by his act. While we've seen something like it before, it is amazingly impressive, and a new twist on it. They're the cutest kids, and they really deserve to move on. They went early on in the night, so I hope they can withhold their place, but if not, I'll be fighting for them in the Dunkin' Save.

4. Edgar- Wow. These voices blend so well, and on their own, they still sound beautiful. I was never a fan until tonight, and I am mesmerized.

3. The Passing Zone- It's silly, it's funny, but let's admit, they have the perfect steps to a successful Vegas show. They have shown every single angle and inch of what they can do. Just like Paul Zerdin last year, every week is a new twist and spin on what they do, and while some performances are stronger than others, their act is still original and Vegas-ready. They're awesome.

2. Brian Justin Crum- One word. Flawless. I really don't have any negative words to say. He'll make it through or I'll riot.

1. Grace VanderWaal- Perhaps the safest bet of moving forward, even before the show started. She is a clear favorite, but for good reason. She is on her own cloud, and that is because of her age and originality. People sing better than her, but can they write their own songs or be as humble as she is? Also, are they as young as her? This girl is a sensation, and I think Howie's speech tells it all. Watch out Taylor, Grace is coming your way.

Grace is in a totally different boat from everyone else, and Brian is close behind. The rest of the acts (besides the two acts who got buzzers, and probably Ronee), are all competing for the remaining 5 spots. Julia is popular enough, the Passing Zone and Malevo are crowd pleasers. This leaves the two magicians, Linkin' Bridge, and Edgar competing for the last two spots. I think Linkin' Bridge is so popular that they could find themselves in a Dunkin' Save with Edgar and one of the magicians. I'm gonna say Vogt has the edge with America, whereas I think Kadan should. But Kadan is young and probably just won't get votes. When it comes down to those three acts, I think the soul group says goodbye.

PREDICTIONS:

Going Through- Grace VanderWaal, Brian Justin Crum, Julia Scotti, The Passing Zone, Malevo, Edgar, and Blake Vogt

Eliminated- Linkin' Bridge, Kadan Bart Rockett :( , Ronee Martin, Vello Vaher, and Alla and Daniel
