crimsonfire Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Beowulf blows goats. Not in the movie but i'd say he does in his spare time. Oh and despite all your annoyingly convincing arguments Leonidas is still winning 4 - 3... Booyah!
Jables Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 I could draw it with my acalis-compliment vote(which'd make perfect sense since he voted without seeing 300 and I could vote without seeing Beowulf). ANd I support Leonidas in a long fight, so quit your griping damnit!!

Silent Bob Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Now it's tied up. I think one-on-one, Beowulf would take him. Leonidas accomplished so much because he had 299 other badasses right behind him. And a helmet. Leonidas had a helmet. Beowulf didn't need a goddamn helmet. He didn't even need pants.
Jables Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 In the eloquent grace of Wanted's Fox. "Would you wanna be seen wrestlin' on the ground with a naked dude?" That's a rough paraphrase but I think she speaks for all of us.
crimsonfire Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 While I can't argue with the cold hard data (ok Beowulf is better on paper i'll admit) my gut feeling is just Leonidas all the way. His particular brand of carnage was just so much slicker and it was a lot more fun to watch him kill hundreds of Persians than it was to see Beowulf kill big scary monsters. Before you say anything: I KNOW thats a matter of opinion and I KNOW this is purely about fighting skill. Just wanted to give some sort of explanation for my incredibly zealous and reverent attitude toward Leonidas.
Jables Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 Oh I think it was an unspoken understanding. Leonidas is a helluva showman too, so points to him for that if there's a swimsuit component.
the division of joy Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 If all else fails, that chick in crimsons sig is a by-product of the leonidas 300 photoshop hype... that should win it for Any guy out there.
Da Cap'n Posted December 21, 2007 Author Posted December 21, 2007 Everybody assumes that Big Leo's only experience is fighting Persians at the hot gates. That mutherfucker has been fightin' since BIRTH! Over 40 years of fighting, people! Who the fuck knows how many battles this guy has been in? How many people he's killed? He killed a MUTANT wolf (isn't "wulf" in Beowulf's name, hmmm) and became KING! Not the fuckin' King of England either! King of the most badass place in HISTORY!! Say it with me... SPARTA!!! Taught to rob and steal and KILL! Jesus, the fucker HAD TO BE PERFECT AT BIRTH TO EVEN BE WORTHY TO LIVE!! Can you guess who I voted for?
Jables Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 Uh... Spiderman? No seriously, I guarantee you in Panch's head this fight and even this poll play out completely differently. In Panch's head, Leonidas & Beowulf start fighting with Spiderman already present as referee(defying the space-time continuum should be done right after all).
Reverend Jax Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 In Pancho's head, Leonidas has Spider-powers. Beowulf probably has the powers of Man-Wolf.
Jables Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 :THIS IS :thwipthwip: SPARTAA!!! So having now seen beowulf 3D I can edjicaytedly cast my vote heartily for Leonidas. As a showman, as an entertainer, as a character real or ficticious, as a goddamned fucking movie, Beowulf's only hope is that he brings his baby-mama Jolie's character along to hopefully(but highly unlikely given Spartan discipline) distract leonidas. The movie was cack, the character was cack, but Jolie's digitally rendered goodness was well worth the price of admission.
crimsonfire Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 The movie was cack, the character was cack Thaaank You!
Jables Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 Fuck diplomacy, a little warning wouldn'a gone astray if only to curb my expectations even a little. At the very least it was the first 3D movie I've ever seen so that was an experience in itself.
Da Cap'n Posted December 24, 2007 Author Posted December 24, 2007 Man, Skeet and Jax know me so well... Yeah, so Leonidas is back in the lead where he belongs. You know I was thinkin': this is the manliest thread we've had in a while. Whatever happened to the days of Hondos' awesomeness? What we need is a little controversy... heh, heh.
Acalis Posted December 24, 2007 Posted December 24, 2007 the one thing in all of this that annoys me is the fact that acalis voted without even seeing 300....THAT IS NOT SPARTA!!!! Well just got done seeing 300, and those Leonidas is indeed one badass, I still think that Beowulf could take him down in a one-on-one duel!
Da Cap'n Posted December 24, 2007 Author Posted December 24, 2007 Here's a question for ya Acalis: Which was a better movie? 300 or Beowulf?
Signal08 Posted December 24, 2007 Posted December 24, 2007 300 was a better movie, but the two individuals is what is being polled here. beowulf would have won 1 on 1 hands down... hell, arm broken and swinging from a chain down. 300 = better movie Beowulf = winner of the fight
Acalis Posted December 24, 2007 Posted December 24, 2007 Here's a question for ya Acalis: Which was a better movie? 300 or Beowulf? I would have to agree with Signal08 and say that as far as the movies go, 300 was the better movie. But as far as a one-on-one battle, Beowulf would so kick Leonidas's ass in my opinion.
crimsonfire Posted December 24, 2007 Posted December 24, 2007 Fuck Hatton V Mayweather. This would be one helluva fight. Ah yes I can see it now: Leonidas Vs Beowulf at the MGM Grand, Las Vegas. The Mythological Melee! The Historic Hootenanny! The Ancient Aggrofest! Prehistoric Pugilism at its very best ladies and gentlemen!!! Lets get rrrready to rrrrrrumblllllllle!!! But of course Leonidas would just swiftly eviscerate Beowulf with his sword at the weigh-in...
Signal08 Posted December 25, 2007 Posted December 25, 2007 Beowulf would rip Leo's arms out of the sockets at weigh in grendel style... how do you like them apples.
IceManML Posted December 25, 2007 Posted December 25, 2007 comon now folkz... Beowulf allday... 1st of all leonidas supposedly really existed whereas beowulf is straight legend who was pretty much invincible. theres no way leonidas wins this 1... beowulf would probably handle the 300 single handedly woot!
Da Cap'n Posted December 25, 2007 Author Posted December 25, 2007 1st of all leonidas supposedly really existed Supposedly? Actual statue at the site where the fucker died at Thermopylae. Think about this for a second... Leonidas and his 300's sacrifice at the Hot Gates, where he staled the Persians for JUST 3 DAYS, was the difference between the life that you know now and you maybe having Persian ancestors. Believe it, cause it's true...
Signal08 Posted December 25, 2007 Posted December 25, 2007 and beowulf would rip his mortal little arms off, grab his legs, do the cartwheel walk with him and use him to edge his driveway and sidewalk with that helmet of his. End of story.and beowulf would rip his mortal little arms off, grab his legs, do the cartwheel walk with him and use him to edge his driveway and sidewalk with that helmet of his. End of story.
