Batman vs Predator

Started by Bardock424 pages

Batman can do it, if Arnold can. Though I'd wager a Predator takes it more often than not.

BTW, Dutch is WAY stronger than Batman. IMO.

Arnold won with prep time, without those traps and whatnot, he would have been skewered.

If you go by size alone, yes, he is. Batman is supposed to be peak or near-peak physical conditioning, the movies never explicitely touch on this though.

I don't know. That pulling Ra's from that cliff is pretty ****ing awesome a feat.

And Batman surely knows how to throw a harder punch, I guess.

Arnold survived the first ambush then got prep if I recall correctly. I'd say Batman could do that, too. But I'd also say that's obviously not a very likely scenario (like Arnold surviving wasn't likely...but cool)

Well yeah.

Batman in the movies was not shown to be nearly as physically mighty as his comic counterpart, simply because Keaton is not big enough to realistically be that strong.

You know, you're right. He was hanging from an ackward position while clinging on with one hand and Liam is a big man, must weigh at least 225, no small feat.

Batman winning with prep is basically law; I don't think this thread allows for Batman to prep though?

There are plenty of strong-men who aren't huge. I watched a guy roll a frying pan like it was a paper; he wasn't all that big.

Video or it didn't happen.

And most strongmen are so huge they look fat...When it is all muscle.

This isn't the guy, but here's an example.

Na, guys like Magnus Ver Magnusson and Jouko Ahola weren't fat when they won the Strongman competitions. There are many others that aren't fat either.

People say if Arnold and Glover can do it Batman can, forgetting the fact that the Predator had the chance to kill them multiple times throughout both movies but didn't for whatever reason. They had the entire movie to observe and understand how the Predator works, and so found ways to get outsmart him. batman doesn't have the time to have such a luxury...

The Predator has a certain code he/they follow, like an honor thing. Unfortunately it is not explained in the movies.

From what I gathered from the movies, he seems to not hurt people who aren't being aggressive or are women/old/sick. The Predator's aren't in it just for the kills (Like small game hunters) so much as they are for the sport. There are hunters who kill tigers instead of deer, and even then spare the children. There just isn't a lot of sport in blowing a women in her 90's in half (I disagree), or impaling a six year old... or a cowardly black guy who's hiding in fear.

That being said, you'd think they wouldn't abuse their cloaking systems so much then.

I gather from the novels that the Predator hunts "oomans" with a certain set of, well, "rules?" Like they know a human/ooman is by far one of the toughest to hunt, because they have weaponry that can hurt the Predator.

Yeah but on the other hand Batman is also so much ridiculously smarter than either of them.

And he's the Goddamn Batman.

Batman has no chance.

Is Batman's technology (suit and gadgets-wise) up to par with the Yautja?
