Welcome back to the Tournament to End All Tournaments! Hannibal defeats Ozzy Osbourne, much to my surprise. I didn't realize elephant cavalry was so popular. I stand corrected. We chug right along today with, you guessed it, more oddness.
Help me find out who the most awesome/badass character/person of all time is!
How would one accomplish such a task? Why by pitting every awesome and/or badass person/character/historical figure in a 512-person bracket style tournament that leaves only one person standing in the end. Who will it be? You will decide.
There is no voting criteria. You can vote for a participant based on whatever you please. If you feel that person would be the victor in a fist fight, or if you think they're more badass, more epic, have better hair, or if you just like one better than the other. It's completely up to you, the voter. I want people to have fun with this, and perhaps imagine the two participants squaring off face to face.
I don't know how to begin approaching this battle. We have a Milo Jovovich charcter, Leeloo, of the cult film The Fifth Element, taking on an ancient mythical creature, The Kraken. I would personally say the odds are stacked against Leeloo due to the sheer prominence of the Kraken mythos. However, I also know there are staunch fans of The Fifth Element. Leeloo is the supreme being in that universe, with the capability of stopping pure evil itself. Food for thought.
