Peypeypeypey Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 Rough pull for Buddy. He's not gonna be good at scaring anyone. Even tougher because the Thing can assimilate people pretty much perfectly. If the Christmas opponent had more of a chance we could argue that the Thing's insatiable desire to spread undermines its Holiday cheer, but that possible technicality wouldn't help Buddy. He's too sweet and happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RakaiThwei Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 The Thing pretty much wins this... And successfully infects Buddy's universe. Good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macklemore Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 As I said before, The Thing's whole shtick is assimilation. Nobody would even notice Buddy wasn't Buddy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSkillz Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Funny thing about this is I think I'm finally going to watch Elf in the next few days. From what I've seen of Buddy in trailers and whatnot over the years, though, he strikes me as too goofy and wholesome to do the whole "deceiving and eating people and pets" bit. That and I don't think he can assimilate others. Man, the Thing looks to be a pretty tough draw in this slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
