    Among my personal favorites I've always wanted to see Madara (naruto) vs Aizen (bleach), through a little tweaked on power levels to make them more even and they get to bring their underlings.

    Both have this very elitist attitude that they have to one up their opponent in some way. Like Madara pulling new powers out of his rear every step of the way to overpower his opponents while Aizen slowly reveals how it's all part of his plan and he has been one step ahead this whole time. I imagine the fight just getting more and more ridiculous as each side trades the apparent advantage back and forth slowly killing their allies off until it's a full on Madara vs Aizen fight.

    The best fictional fight scene is the sword fight in the trees in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

    No question.

    Great movie, too!

    Not favorite full scene per se, but my favorite scene in a fight is from Justice League, actually, when Aquaman and Wonder Woman are trying to restrain Superman, and time slows down as Flash is running in, and then suddenly Supe's eyes move and track him.

    That was an AMAZING scene.

    ALL HAIL THE GREAT RAK!!

    I use the same name in every game I ever play or forum I join (except the pretender on PSN that forced me to be RealOlinser). If you see an Olinser in a game or on a website, there's a high chance it's me, feel free to shoot me a message.

    Jackie Chan versus Shahrukh Khan, in an unused disco. Finally, acrobatic martial arts combined with Bollywood dancing!

    To be more serious, Price Zuko versus Roy Mustang. Both Fire Users, one more level headed and the other more impulsive (at least at first, not got to Book 3 yet so this may change), one more versatile with his fire the other more experienced in battle. The nature of their fire powers is different enough (Roy essentially being limited to fireballs, but theoretically being able to use other alchemy) that I think it would be interesting. No, it's not just because one is a prince and the other is named king....

    Actually Roy has a lot more going for him than just fireballs. He's career military and is well versed in firearms and hand to hand combat. While his specialty is fire alchemy he has been trained in other types. His fire control is very good (pinpoint accuracy) and when he lets loose its like heavy artillery being used. I mean he killed a immortal being with a freaking LIGHTER. Prince Zuko is good, but Roy is just out of his class.

    Don't forget that Zuko is also well versed in hand to hand combat as well as firebending (firearms is something he can't match, due to differences in setting). Plus while Roy's fire powers are greater than basic-Zuko, he's roughly on the level of Sozin's Comet Zuko if not weaker, and as his powers actually manipulate the fuel and oxygen to generate/control fire Zuko has a greater advantage in his ability to manipulate any fire on the battlefield.

    Also, I don't actually care that the winner is obvious (especially post-series Roy just has too many advantages, but even without that boost he just has to remember to carry freaking chalk*), I think the fight itself would be cool. Zuko's on the back foot, but if he remembers his Uncle's advice and concentrates on the basics he could still put up a good fight.

    * Seriously, why doesn't Roy carry chalk? His non-flame alchemy skills are explicitly military level, a few seconds to scribble a basic circle and he can still do stuff if his gloves are damaged.

    I'll throw out an old favourite of mine- one of the most beautifully animated fight sequences of all time (in my semi-humble opinion, of course ).

    Hmm... as far as matchups that haven't happened... how about an absolute bloodbath in the making? Frank Castle, the Punisher, vs. Mack Bolan, the Executioner. Both going after the same mob boss at the same time, getting in each other's way, and both deciding that a skyscraper full of goombas and wiseguys was acceptable collateral when they got pissed off at one another.

    It'd be the kind of damage that you'd get when your PCs have decided that subtlety's no longer an option.

    A good Fictional Fight?
    Basically anything from RWBY (an anime style show about monster hunters)
    There is a lot of awesome weapons, characters, Semblances (basically small abilities), that make rwby so much fun to watch.


    (sorry, I didnt realize someone had already said RWBY)

    Not "fictional" (as in it did happen in the film) but the staff/weapon fight between Jen Yu and Yu Shu Lien in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

    And I guess any fight from IP Man as well.
