Ellen Ripley vs. Sarah Connor

Started by Nemesis X5 pages

Sarah Connor would've gotten screwed if a Terminator didn't help her out against the liquid one so I don't call her a badass, I call her the woman with a badass robot. Sarah has mostly ran from Terminators and only got lucky she destroyed one just by luring it underneath a crusher or whatever the heck you call it.

Ripley fought Xenomorphs head on and even fought an Alien Queen which is the strongest and most deadliest Xenomorph of its kind.

Ripley fought the xenos in one movie for like five minutes, that's her claim to badassery. She had a few minutes of weapons training, whereas Connor has years. Better trained=More badass.

Connor fought and destroyed terminators, evaded police, was captured, escaped, and had the T2 beat. She kicked ass for years, whereas Ripley kicked ass for one damn movie, for a few minutes.

AND Connor held on with leukemia for two years making sure judgement day didnt come.

If they go at it gun to gun or h2h, Ripley is gonna get pwned.

BTW, Ripley didnt fight the alien queen head on, the loader did, Ripley was a good loader operator, thats all.

The impressive part was what she did AFTER the paperclip.

Yeah, well i would like to see Sarah Conner escape and defeat the Alien the way Ripley did in the end of Alien. Upon their first encounters Ripley was more in control collected. Ripley didn't lose her shit like Conner did against the Terminator. Ripley took control and killed the Xenomorph...,Sarah got extremely lucky.

Weapons training is irrelevant when it comes to leadership, besides, it's not hard to point and shoot a gun 😛

By that logic, Conner never fought a Terminator head on. She was simply a good at pulling the trigger of a grenade launcher

You give Sarah that gun Ripley had, and put John in Newt's place, and she pwns just as hard.

No, what I mean is Ripley was protected the entire time by the frame of the loader.

Ripley has taken on hordes of the Xenomorphs. She has shown bravery, tact, and charisma in the face of terror. Her only wish is to go back home to Earth and live a normal life, but, unfortunately, Fate has a different plan for her. She will never stop battling the aliens.

Sarah Connor is a woman with one goal on her mind, and she is willing to do whatever it takes to accomplish that goal: to stop the Machines from taking over the Earth on Judgment Day. She has battled with terrifying cyborgs, the Terminators, from the distant future and prevailed, but with great loss.

This is a one-on-one fisticuff match. No gloves, no weapons, no rules. Which of these two badasses will knock each other out by using their battle skills and anger?

OP says nothing of leadership anyway, it's a h2h battle. Ripley has zero h2h skills, Connor has h2h out the yazoo.

Connor FTW in a stomp.

I meant the end of the first Alien but yeah, i agree. If Sarah has an M41-A pulse rifle she is definitely dropping some Xenomorphs.

What did Ripley really do at the end of the first Alien? Didnt impress me much.

Fair enough, i can get behind that but it required major skill, strength and quick thinking on Ripleys part to kill the Queen.

hid in a space suit 😆

Exactly. Hid in a space suit.

yeah but she did it whilst wearing a thong ✅ and hey, she eventually pressed the air lock button

Wait, she pressed a button? WELL that changes everything 🙄
