  1. Both Tallahassee and Bud are expert zombie and vampire killers respectively, so between the two of them they can probably survive whatever kind of undead horror is thrown at them.
  2. Never saw Transformers: Prime or Training Day sadly. From my limited knowledge I am leaning towards the kid because frankly if he can survive in a world where giant space robots throw down in front of him all the time, I think he can survive 1 dirty cop after him.
  3. Not sure how Elodie will be able to understand and learn how to fly either of the two science fiction flying machines within the span of a few minutes. Especially considering modern day pilots spend months if not a year training before their allowed to fly a plane. Between the Batplane and TIE Fighter though I’d put my money on the Batplane.
  4. For those of you unfamiliar with Peaky Blinder or The Blacklist here’s some videos to serve as introductions to Tommy and Red: Peaky Blinders- Luca Changretta Final Scene
  5. 🎶Take a little walk to the edge of town And go across the tracks Where the viaduct looms… 🎶Where secrets lie in the border fires In the humming wires… 🎶On a gathering storm comes A tall handsome man! In a dusty black coat with A RED RIGHT HAND! Tommy Shelby Vs Raymond “Red” Reddington ************************************ “My goodness! Why is it always raining in this quaint little country?” Raymond “Red” Reddington fussed as he quickly made his way into the pub and out of the pouring rain. “Allow me to get your coat Sir,” The ever loyal Dembe helped Reddington’s now thoroughly soaked off to hang up. “Much appreciated my dear Dembe,” Red straightened his coat and made sure his hat was on right before making his way over to the table where three figures awaited him. “Gentlemen! So sorry for being late! I’d blame it on this horrible weather, but truth be told I also ran into this old acquaintance at the airport who let’s just say owed me “an arm and a leg” if you know what I mean?” “No worries mate, weren’t waiting too long. Have a pint on us ‘fore you catch your death yeah?” One of the figures pushed a glass of whisky towards the shivering American. “Oh don’t mind if I do!” Red eagerly took the offered drink and took a quick swing of it. “Hmmm, a bit more rustic and harder then I’m used to. But I suppose it’s charming enough in its own way. Kinda like this nice little town you have here. If I didn’t know any better I’d swear I’d gone back in time to the 1920s!” “We like things the way they are round here fancy pants. It’s traditional and simple,” The man in the middle with the mustache spoke tersely. “Here, here for tradition! The cornerstone to every great society! But let’s talk turkey shall we? So you three are the infamous ‘Peaky Blinders’ are you? Quite the unique name I’ll admit, if a little simple. Now don’t tell me your names! Let me guess: the one in the middle, I’m sensing your the bruiser with a fiery temper, but lovable heart underneath it. Arthur Shelby Jr I presume?” Reddington smiled warmly at the mustached individual. Arthur snorted and took a swing of his beer rather than answer. “I’ll take that as a yes. Now you on the left, too small to be the muscle, too wide eyed to be the leader, but just loyal enough to be a moderately useful pawn. John Michael Shelby, called ‘John Boy’ by his family?” Red guessed again. “Careful mate. That sounded awfully close to an insult there,” John Boy warned the portly man. “My boy, if I was going to insult you I’d make certain you know it. Then that just leaves the ringleader himself: Tommy Shelby! You know I’ve heard from quite a few tales of your astonishingly quick rise to power! Why it would make it one heck of a BBC crime drama in the right hands!” Red said in a flamboyant tone. “I’ve heard a few tall tales about you too Mr Raymond Reddington. Some of it good, some of it not so good, hence our little sit down here. What’s your business in my neck of the woods?” Tommy Shelby cautiously asked. “Believe it or not Mr Shelby, I’m actually here to help you. A little birdie told me that Shelby Company Limited is needing some new backers to keep rates up and I just so happened to be interested in expanding my business into jolly old England. Let’s help each other out shall we? Dembe the map please?” At Red’s direction his right hand man laid out a map of England on the table. “Just so we’re clear, I ain’t interested in drugs or trafficking, human or animal,” Tommy Shelby warned as his brothers moved their drinks out of the way of the map. “Oh come now Mr. Shelby, I can assure you my business is as squeaky clean as the Pope’s bedchambers. Now then I’ve already started setting up some spots in southern England that are already making quite a lot of money, but my ultimate goal involves involves opening up businesses here, here, here, and-“ “Oi! I don’t like you setting up shop in the Midlands. Local businesses might not survive you stealing away their customers,” Arthur sternly said. “Calm yourself Arthur, they’ll barely know that I’m there. Anyways I’d also like to set a few more shops over here on the Eastern coast and I’d like very much if your men can help me set up,” Red finished drawing up the spots he wanted. “Are you thick or something? My brother said no to you setting up in the Midlands!” John growled at Reddington. “Quiet now John Boy, the grown ups are talking. So what do you say Mr. Shelby? The two of us working together could stand to make quite a lot of money,” Raymond Reddington offered the head of the Shelby clan. Tommy Shelby stared Reddington down for a few moments, and then took the pencil out from Red’s hand and then started erasing half of the marked points that Reddington had written down. “You’re welcome to expand into the South to your hearts content. But as my brother said, anywhere north of the line is off limits. Deal?” Tommy Shelby gave his counter offer. “Oh my I do believe there’s been some misunderstanding about the nature of this meeting Mr. Shelby. This isn’t a negotiation, this me giving you a courtesy heads up on what is gonna happen. I’d like your help setting it up, but make no mistake it’s happening with or without the Peaky Blinders approval,” Reddington arrogantly said. Arthur Shelby stood up abruptly and made to move around the table, only for Dembe to move himself in front of Arthur. A tense stand off endured as the Peaky Blinders eyed their foes with barely concealed hostility. “I get it mate. Across the pond you’re used to acting out whenever you like, knowing you got the FBI backing you up and such. But you’re not in America anymore Red. You’re in my backyard now, and over here you play by my rules or you don’t play at all,” Tommy Shelby slowly warned his adversary. “But you see I’ve never been one to play by the rules, Thomas. My father had this little saying; ‘good men follow the rules, but great men create their own rules,” Reddington’s previously friendly smile took on a more sinister look as he spoke. “You’re not setting up shop in the Midlands Red. You cross that line and I’ll take it as an act of war,” Tommy said in no uncertain terms. “I’ll take your words under advisement Thomas. Come along now Dembe, we got much work to do,” Raymond Reddington stood up and grabbed his coat from the hanger. “Oi! Red!” Tommy Shelby stood up from his table to stare Reddington in the eyes as he neared the door. “I’ll tell you the same thing I told every other tossed that thought they could beat me. You don’t want me as your enemy.” “I’ve had dozens of enemies just like you Thomas. But I can assure you, you’ve never meet someone quite like me,” Reddington gave the Shelby leader one last smile before he and Dembe left the pub. ************************************ Wanted to put in one last matchup before the website get’s overhauled. Got inspired after a friend recommended The Blacklist to me and I saw a lot of similarities between Red and Tommy Shelby. Anyways basically Raymond Reddington is trying to muscle into the Peaky Blinders territory and Tommy Shelby is trying to stop him. Let’s just say that both Red and Tommy have all their resources and influence from across all seasons of their respective shows. Which villain protagonist wins?
  6. Loved watching Squid Games so I’ll give the nod to Sae-byeok. She’s sneaky enough and resourceful enough to win.
  7. Bullseye takes this I think. Storm Shadow is no joke but Bullseye is a whole different animal.
  8. Nice story Boratz! Goji’s got this! The Zillo Beast was killed by far inferior weapons then the kind Big G causally walks through. Nuclear weapons, asteroids, the freaking Oxygen Destroyer to name a few.
  9. Kong in a cake walk. MonsterVerse Kong’s feats, especially his scaling to Godzilla, put him way above George.
  10. Sekhmet was an Egyptian warrior goddess that once almost wiped out humanity after they pissed off the Gods. Not exactly sure how the other two are even in the same ball park as her.
  11. Sorry Lance but Agent Twilight is on a whole different level, plus he’s got more feats to work with. Agent Twilight/Loid Forger wins this.
  12. Well as I recall the Dragon Emperor can only be killed by that cursed dagger that Lin was carrying, so Golobulous might just lose by virtue of not having the means to put the Emperor down permanently.
  13. A very intriguing match. Whilst I am an admittedly hardcore Star Wars fan, I think I’ll give this to the Covenant. Rank and file CIS battle droids are notoriously underwhelming soldiers, being very clumsy, poor tacticians, and very easy to one shot. They were only really successful when they had overwhelming numbers on their side, anytime they didn’t have that advantage they were quickly outmaneuvered and picked apart by the better trained, armored, and tactically sound Clone troopers. They literally started the Clone Wars with nearly a 100 to 1 advantage in numbers to the Clones and within 3 years the Clones had the Separatists soundly defeated, so that’s a big knock against the droids as soldiers. The Covenant meanwhile will be going into this fight with greater training, defenses, experience, tactics, and with a lot more variety of soldiers. No way do they lose.
