Will be closed but before it is, the 300 annihilate those 4.

golem370
I think it would be a good match

Inhuman
Give fellowship gandalf, smeegol, and the infinity gauntlet and they stand a chance.

Battlehammer

true.

This has got to be a joke. 300 win easily. These aren't dumb orcs, they're humans taken to the brink of being low level meta's, with experience fighting monsters and countless battles.

Dude, this would be a better fight if it was the 300 against the Sauron's army of Orcs.



Saruman: THIS IS MADNESSS!!!
Leonidas: THIS...Is...SPARTAAAAA!!!

The reason the fighters are 300 yards apart is because Aragorn & Legolis have bow's and arrows so they could take out a few from a distance.

The Fellowship four are monsters, superior to 300 Spartans by leaps and bounds. They are going to utterly decimated the ranks of the 300... unfortunately the Spartans are quite capable at turtling, and once they do that it is only a matter of time before they take out the fellow ship. Make no mistake though, if the 300 break rank and charge like the did several times in the movie the Fellowship four will demolish them, forcing the 300 back into close ranks.

Legolas takes them all out.

Seriously, he was combat god in the movies.

He never got hurt. He never got hit. He always killed with one strike. And he could shoot arrows like a machine gun.

And he never got dirty either. The others looked royally f'ed up after every major battle, but Legolas? Nope. He looked like he just walked out of a spa.....

Anybody can look like a combat god against a bunch of dirty orcs and goblins. As soon as the Spartans see Legolas whipping out arrows they simply form a phalanx and move forward. Sure Legolas will take out a bunch but there is no way he will last through them all.

Orcs and Goblins weren't stupid. They were as much cannonfodder as the Persians the 300 were fighting.

The only real threats to either were the Ninja guys and the Turok-Han.

And I doubt a phalanx would really work. Legolas was taking out entire mobs with his arrows.

I'd think he aim for their legs and have them trip and stumble over each other.

Also, the turtle won't work. I remember one distinct scene where Legolas was on a bridge and at the very least 600 yards away, shot a goblin through his helmet via the open slit in the eyes.


If anything Aragorn and Gimili can hold them off while Legolas rapidfires them.

Didn't the 300's shields overlap so there wasn't any gaps in their shield wall when the turtled?

Exactly, but apparently some posters here can't grasp the concept of what a phalanx is.

Draco69 saying orcs and goblins aren't stupid - laughing to that. You gotta be kiddin' me. You got a bunch of dirty dogs with crappy armor and weapons forged in mass (read: garbage quality) with zero training, they have a tough enough time not eating each other.

Persians >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> orcs and goblins in crappy gear and urukai that were slapped with some armor, a crooked helmet and a dull blade.

One of the phalanx formations' main weaknesses is projectile attacks from archers or slingers.

no expression

The phalanx formation was however useful against a charging opposition.


Just not an archer. Or a very skilled archer with impeccable aim.

It's like a train really. If the first wheel gets knocked down, the entire damn row falls.

Phalanx? We is gittin da cosmics out!

Orcs and goblins used to be elves. They're savage but they knew how to fight.

The Phalanx formation is perfect against the likes of Gimili because he's a brawler but against Legolas? It doesn't do anything.

Actually it's a detriment.

Read up on it's history. Advanced archery and long-range warfare proved to be it's undoing and why it was dropped from wartime strategy.

So after Legolas runs out of his 20 arrows, and his companions are all dead, he is going to single handedly slaughter the rest of the 270 Spartans that are left single handedly using just his sword?

You are truly a LOTR fanboy to the highest caliber. lmao

I don't think Legolas ever ran out of arrows. He seemed to get them outta nowhere.

It was either Elvish magic or he somehow managed to find the time to make 200 or 400 so arrows out plain ol' tree bark. It didn't make sense but w/e.

The battle of Return of the King comes to mind. He must have used his arrows dozens of times. He never refilled. He couldn't have gotten them a supply shack or something. He was out in the middle of an open field.

And Legolas has by far shown the ability to take out more than one opponent with a single arrow. On more than one occasion Legolas was shown killing at least four opponents with one arrow.

So let me get this straight - Legolas, by himself, will use his magical stack of 400 arrows that he gets "outta nowhere", to kill the Spartans, shooting through the phalanx shield wall which overlaps and doesn't have holes, killing 4 at a time. laughing

Thanks, I needed a good chuckle before going to sleep.

But that's the difference between reality and fiction. In reality the Phalanx may have been weak against archers, in the movie it stood up to arrows easily... which is one of the reasons this is the movie 300 and not the real ones. I'd say the fact that turtling with your shields in real life is ineffective against archers is irrelevant, because it worked in the movie.

No, but you did see him firing them off like a speedy motherf*cker. And keep shooting more...

Orcs were elves thousands of years ago. Goblins are their own race all together IIRC.

Orc don't know how to fight (excluding the Uruk-hai) simply because they were made as mockeries of Elves. They exist for no purpose but to hurt things and they don't fulfill it with subtlety or skill.

Goblins are just stupid.

Except in Draco's world, where orcs and goblins are elite fighters, and arrows magically appear out of thin air. whistle

He's a ****ing Elf. Your inferior Human math means nothing to him.

Besides Smurph has already pointed out that he never runs out of arrows.

Gotta love KMC sometimes. When all else fails, the character simply magically has an infinite supply of arrows and performs a hundred times better than he did in the story or the movie, and of course the LOTR fangirls flock to defend.

400+ arrows KMC style:

Great argument. So based off of that logic, Legolas managed to shoot hundreds of people using . . . 3 arrows.

Yeah, that makes total sense.

Umm.....yeah, actually. He will. It's well known in fiction that Elves are stupidly uber archers. But even by those standards, movie Legolas was broken as hell. The guy seemed to have an infinite ammo and pre-cog cheat code. HE NEVER TOOK A SINGLE SCRATCH IN ALL 3 MOVIES! What the f**k?

And FYI, I'm almost certain those arrows are armor piercing. And even if he runs out, he's got twin blades. And Gimli carries throwing axes.......

Even if Legolas runs out of arrows, he'll take out at least 50 or so bare min. That leaves 250 spartans vs. Aragorn, the king of gondor, Boromir, who took several poisoned Uruk-Hai arrows to bring down, Gimli, who's more than a match for 10 of them at a time, and Legolas, who is nigh unhittable.

Not to mention Anduril can probably cut through their shields like butter. The sword was not only elvish-made, it created mystic fire.

I guarantee if I've said something rude about you in the past few days, it's because you've said some exceptionally dumb things, and I happened to read them.

I wouldn't bother to follow you around.

And, if all these "trollings" are like me pointing out that Legolas never ran out of arrows despite shooting as fast, accurately and consistently as humanly (or elfishly) possible, then you're confusing "debating" and "trolling".

It's ok though. I promise I'll try not to hurt your feelings with them painful argument in the future.

Legolis was not the only one with arrows Boromir and Aragorn had them to.
