Operative: "Its worse than you know..." Mal: "It usually is."


I think you have too many choices,...I couldn't even guess.

With no weapons? Conan.
With their traditional weapons? Requires more thought.

Ok I'll bite with this one but there really is too much choice.
So assuming we are talking about them in their TV/movie prime and with no weapons:

Michael Knight - Hahahahaha. Surely a joke? Wouldn't even get to throw a punch.

Mitchell Gant - Over the hill and prone to flasbacks. Wouldn't last much lomger than Knight.

Taylor - As an astronaut he'd be fit and could do some damage but I think he'd fall next.

Ash - I hate to say this but he got by on luck and weapons. Definitely next to go.

Mal and Max - A tough call. Neither have any specialist training as far as we know besides what was required to be a soldier and a cop. They both can take a battering but I could see them taking each other out.

Kirk - This man can give a good beating when it's needed and take the punishment that goes with it but his ego would get the better off him against those who have better training.

Aragorn - As a Ranger he could employ stealth and cunning in the fight and could last a long while

James Bond - As a highly trained killer he'd be tough to beat and he's been taught to ithstand pain. Ultimately he is just a man.

Conan - His superior strength and warrior instincts would see him through to the end to be crowned winner.


I've tried to be objective about this as I wouldn't be rooting for Conan to win. I have too many faves to pick from the whole list.

Conan, Bond and Aragorn are SciFi alpha males?

Han Solo is not a SciFi alpha male?

I protest!

I'd have put Solo in there as well but to be fair he didn't say that Solo WASN'T a Scifi alpha male, he just didn't include him.
Michael Knight isn't scifi. He's cannon fodder.
Aragorn and Conan are fantasy.
Kirk, Mal, Taylor and Max are the only true scifi ones in the list. I don't know where I'd place the others. Horror for Ash I guess.

Sorry to my heroes, but Conan would be last man standing. Not much of a contest either.
Unless Kirk slipped in a phaser, or if someone in the audience yelled "Strange one!!!" and tossed in the chainsaw to Ash.

I would go with Max. He has taken on some tough guys and his mind is quick to adapt to the tactics required. An example is the cage match he fought.

America loves a winner!


Conan endured years of training and beat everyone in the pit. You know, 2 men enter, 1 man leaves? He was doing that long before Thunderdome.

Conan stands alone. Easy.

Sorry guys but the classic Kirk would MURDER Mal, the newbie in JJ's movie is a joke compared to the classic. New Kirk gets owned by Paris Hilton or someone
but Classic Kirk was near invincible


Kirk is like the Chuck Norris of the scifi world, the only one who beats up classic Krik is himself

Bond.

Why? Not because of suerior strength or aything, but because all the rest are bone fide, all American "Good Guys" who, sooner or later, would have a "what are we fighting for, and why don't we team up and go after the evil Oppyh who is forcing us to do this?" moment.

Bond, on the other hand, is a cold hearted killer who just happens to be on the good guys' team. He's more like The Operative.

(Meanwhile, at half time, some cute looking Girl Scouts appear bearing oranges and first aid kits... but then turn out to be River Tam, HitGirl and Buffy who proceed to cream the lot of them...)
