Superhero Smackdown

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the deadpool-will-defeat-all-of-them dept.

Paul writes "Fox News is running a story that asks one of the best geek questions of our generation: who win if Superman and Batman fought one another?. The last this topic was big was during the Spider-Man/AOTC rush in May. I distinctly remember a particular essay that compared Superman, Batman, Spider-Man, any Jedi (particularly Yoda), and James Bond." Obviously the author didn't read DK2 ;) And I put my money on Deadpool, if only because his quips are better.

    The obvious answer is the MPAA ...

    This is the lamest story I think I've ever seen on Slashdot. Hasn't Mrs. Taco started steering you into the real world yet? For Christ's sake, you're a thirty odd year old "man". Isn't it time to let go of the childish fantasies?

    How many angels can dance on the head of a pin? Do you get the same answer if you assume they're doing the Samba instead of the Funky Chicken?

    In our next episode we'll discuss whether balrogs have wings, and if so, whether their wingpits smell as bad as their armpits.

  4. why not ask a real "who would win..." question by Savatte · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    These hypothetical questions are pretty strange. They aren't real, people! Try this one on for size. Who would win if anti-lock brakes fought redhat 8.0? What if weapons were allowed?

  5. Flash ads from doubleclick? by AKnightCowboy · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    More importantly, I thought one of the editors (Hemos?) said there would be no Flash ads on Slashdot. Here I see one on the page for "Business Time Machine" completely with flashy graphics. I'm really trying to keep from blocking ads because I like reading this site and support them, but Flash ads are like pissing in a user's face. http://ad.doubleclick.net/adi/N815.osdn/B1060982;s z=336x280;ord=103590557103590557 ObSuperhero: Superman would of course beat the crap out of Batman. Why is this even a contest? Superman can fly, has super strength, is faster than a speeding bullet, can blow frost breath and freeze you, can shoot heat rays from his eyes, and he has xray vision among other things. He is for all intents and purposes a SUPER MAN! He is meant to be the most powerful super hero of them all yet people continually wimp him down into a piece of shit and he seems to get his ass kicked by the most unlikely of "super" villains. Give me a break! If you were Superman and you knew your ONE weakness in the entire world was kryptonite, wouldn't you go around and collect it all as your mission in life and throw it into the Sun? Batman is a techno weenie and would be naked without his stupid utility belt and gadgets. He's just a normal guy and not a super hero.

    I was disappointed that our tough-talking presidient didn't take up Saddam's offer to settle the whole Iraq deal "mano y mano"
