The Heroes/Villains Tournament of Champions - Planning Thread

[VintagePunk]

How very underwhelming.

You clearly needed help. I stepped up to the plate. Hit a solid double.

You're welcome.

You, at best, got hit by a pitch and were immediately pinch run for.

Oh yeahhhh

Oh yeahhhh

I knew that everyone would love this thread.

I know who Elric is, though I haven't read the books. Lance should, though, since his mom is defintely into Moorcock.

If we're including sci-fi literature characters, I'll have to nominate my namesake, Lazarus Long, and Corwin of Amber.

Evs. I put the ball in play, and good things happened.

If we're including sci-fi literature characters, I'll have to nominate my namesake, Lazarus Long, and Corwin of Amber.

Oh, for fuck's sake, Laz, that really cracked me up.

I read a ton of Michael Moorcock when I was younger, and Elric was easiily my favorite. He's bad-ass, with a sword, or some sorcery. He'd fare well in this tourney.

I'd also include Severian or Patera Silk if we're adding sci-fi literature characters.

Apollo Creed

 

[UberBeaver]

Question: Are we including movies, or just cinema?

William Wallace.
Pan (the Fawn from Pan's Labryinth).
The Crow was a badass.
Boba Fett.
Indiana Jones. In fact, I'd enjoy an Indy vs Boba Fett battle.
Godzilla
Mothra
Silver Potato
The Joker (but not the TV or Movie versions, I don't think they are the same as the comic book joker.)
Roland of Gilead

 

[UberBeaver]

Obi Wan.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Gandhi... Motherfuckers are going down.

 

[Dalton]

The Lord of Darkness from Legend should be included on this list.

 

[lazarus]

Malificent/The Dragon from Sleeping Beauty.

Don't know if we want to open the animation box, because then you've got a whole lot of other shit.

 

[No spoken words]

Wolverine.

 

[Dalton]

Atreyu should really be one of the heroes as well.

 

[Dalton]

Is John McClain considered a hero or just a recovering drunk with a foul mouth and a gun?

 

[monkeyskin]

How about God and Satan.

Failing that there's:
Mojo Jojo ('Mo Mojo than ever before!)
Topper Harley (not even knotted shoelaces can stop this man)
Wallace (Sin City - Hell and Back)
T-Rex (from the first Jurassic Park)
Sephiroth (FFVII if we can include video games)

And Freddy, Jason and Michael seeing as how they just don't stay dead.

 

[UberBeaver]

Marv from Sin City.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

How about God and Satan.

Jesus ftw...

 

[UberBeaver]

NJ.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

NJ.

I stand corrected...

 

[No spoken words]

I don't think Satan or G-d or Jesus are in this thing. NJ we can let in, so he can get trounced early on.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Buddy Jesus?

 

[Dalton]

Is that a no on the John McClain? Seriously if we set this thing up like Mortal Combat, it would great to have his "Yippee Kay Yah, muthafucka" line in there.

It's good for ratings.

OH SNAP, SON! I don't even want to see the fallout. Have fun in New Hell, pal. LOL PWND!

John McClain will always been one of my personal heroes so he's in as far as I'm concerned...

 

[lazarus]

I think Moses had the coolest miracle of all with the Red Sea parting. Jesus walking on water just doesn't have the same visual power.

Guy with the tablets FTW.

 

[Dalton]

What about Elisha and his Bears. That's a cool trick.

Though jesus and the water to wine and healing people was cool, it just wouldn't translate to this type of tournament that well.

King Midas, guy could fuck you up just by touching you and then trade in your corpse for $818.23 per ounce...

That's true. He's bad ass and profitable. Very nice.
