Terminator Showdown Thread Part 3: Ellen Ripley vs. Sarah Connor
Jun 30 2009, 11:21 AM EDT | Post edited: Jun 30 2009, 11:21 AM EDT
Note to self, make sure the initial post doesn't get your thread deleted. Lesson learned (sorry guys).

As a fan of nerdrage, there's one group of fans on this site I haven't purposefully engaged yet. Yes, Sarah Connor fans, you're now in my sights. Because there's one other character who would wipe the floor with Sarah. She's tougher, meaner, has to deal with a deadly enemy, and moreover she's another Jim Cameron influenced character.

That's right, I'm talking about Ellen Ripley, of Aliens fame. Let's see, Ripley has more movies (4), faces a tougher opponent (An Alien vs. a Terminator, with the Terminator unarmed, is an easy win for the Alien), is in tougher situations (trapped with an Alien, or trapped with 150 Aliens, she wins each time). She's even died and come back from the dead even tougher than before. Oh, and she's tough as nails and has to lead a crew each time. So team leader, excellent fighter, takes no crap, and beats a worse enemy in a worse situation.

Ripley's even got better Mom skills, just look at her and Newt in Aliens. Sarah can't even make a pot roast. Yeah, that's really a good sign when you're going up against a spacefaring lieutenant.

If Ripley ever meets Connor, Ripley will pound her into a mush, suck her up with a vacuum cleaner, spit her out, then pound her into a mush again.

Don't agree? Prove me wrong! 2  out of 3 found this valuable. Do you?

No, I'm not trying to cause trouble. I'm trying to cause LAUGHTER!

The purpose of this thread to provoke laughs at an idiotic comparison. These are 2 FICTIONAL CHARACTERS. Obviously you can't really compare the two. It's like saying The Enterprise beats A Star Destroyer or some such debate. The point is make ridiculous arguments and laugh about it.

And Tento, it's ALL of them. Ripley of any kind beats Sarah of any kind. There. Narrowed it down for you? Do you find this valuable?

Ha Lena is a boxer, she'd whip that ass, Summer wouldnt stand a chance, I'd pay to see that fight. If there were sensual oils involved I'd pay double.

No the field is too wide.

Narrowing down means picking one or two. Do you find this valuable?

Okay fine, Ripley of the first 3 movies, since the Ripley of Alien 4 could rip off a terminator's leg and beat it to death with it's own limb.

And if you're going to talk about different Sarah's well, clearly NOT T1, since Sarah's a complete wuss in the movie. So it's Lena's Sarah or Crazy Sarah. And you know what? Doesn't make a difference, Ripley wins either way. Do you find this valuable?

Lena would punch a hole thru her brain. LOL

I beg to differ Godfather who killed the Terminator at the end of T1, it was Sarah.

Well that's a tough one, but I am going with Sarah Connor, less advanced weapons and the enemy she was hunting never killed her the way the Aliens did to Ripley. Do you find this valuable?
