I was just mulling over some of the great fights between fictional characters we’ll probably never get to see…
James Bond vs. Shaft. This one was inspired by some Bond movie I was watching when JB was in Harlem (I think). It’s a close one: Bond has all those cool gadgets, but Shaft is a bad mother. (I admit, though, that when it comes to womanizing, Shaft wins hands down.)
Oh, and just in case anyone asks, I’m thinking the Sean Connery version against the Richard Roundtree version.
And then there’s Han Solo vs. Indiana Jones. Dual Harrison Fords in their prime. This could also be an evenly matched one. Sure, Han has his blaster, but Indy might whip it away before he can fire it off. Tough call.
Any others? Come on, people, don’t tell me you haven’t mulled over these while daydreaming in grade school…
