Who would win in a fight...?
By Steve Lee
We were about half-way to Disneyland from Burbank, and I could tell my step-daughter was already bored. But before she could say "are we there yet" or "how much longer 'till we get there" one more time, I threw a question of my own at her.
"Hey, Cindy... who would win in a fight... Mickey Mouse, or Bugs Bunny?"
Suddenly a lively debate began, where Cindy, her mom and I each imagined the battle between the two Toons... from both sides.
"Mickey's too goody-goody. He hasn't got a chance."
"But remember him in Steamboat Willie? He did horrible things to those animals - he's got a mean streak."
"Bugs has more attitude - and he does a lot more 'Toon Conjuring' than Mickey, pulling props and costumes outa thin air."
"Mickey does all his own stunts - he did all that repelling just recently in 'Runaway Brain.' And I've seen him get really nasty, too."
Soon after, we were discussing whether Superman or Batman would win if they duked it out... and if Barney the Dinosaur could beat up Grimace from McDonald's.
Our trips to Disneyland now always seem a lot shorter.
We've never really discussed any strict rules to this game, but there have been a few guidelines. We usually pick fictional characters - but not always. They're similar in some way - but from different shows, genres, or studios. It's almost always between two characters... although we've occasionally imagined a melee with three similar characters. And we never really discussed why the fight would break out beyond simple rivalry.
This road-trip tradition has really inspired some imaginative discussions. CLICK HERE to join the game on our Message Board!

Micky VS. Bugs
Tis true Micky is to goodie - goodie he would try to defeat Bugs but you have to take in to account that Bugs is certifiably Insane and would just do the same thing he aways does which would lead to Mickey ulitmately defeating himself.
Batman VS. Superman
Batman would win, the sole reason for this is that Batman already knows Superman's weakness. Batman can defeat anyway one it doesn't matter who it is from Marvel or DC comics or beyond Batman is to smart and all he needs is time and will that time he would deduce this opponents weakness or flaw and take them out.
Barney the Dinosaur VS. The Grimace from McDonald's
This is simple Barney like Mickey is to goodie-Goodie but even he takes it to a new level. This battle would be over in a matter of minutes for one simple reason: Nothing stops The Grimace. while Barney trys to teach him about being friends the purple gelatinous blob would quickly assimilate the happy dinosaur and Barney would never be seen again.
Good arguments, Zeiram! Hop on our message board and post 'em there!
