Legolas vs. Sauron.
Legolas:
Sauron:
Sauron from the Fellowship of the Ring is seen knocking the shit out of everyone in sight. He's heavily armored.
However, Legolas is very fast and nimble and ultra accurate with a bow and arrow.
Assume that Sauron retains ALL of his might and size for two scenarios:
1. Legolas MUST remove the ring in order to defeat him. That can include cutting off his fingers. Sauron is at full power, as seen in the opening scene of TFotR.
2. Simply killing Sauron through regular means will work: no ring clause attached. (This would be similar to removing Horcruxes from Voldemort.) He's still retains all his might and size, though: he's just mortal.
Fight takes place in the room that the show down in Dune (84 Lynch version version..but I had to use that footage from a remix) as seen here: YouTube video
There's plenty of high and low places for Legolas to do his acrobatics (for those of you that would get PO'd at a gimp) and there's plenty of wide open spaces for Sauron to swing (for those that would get PO'd at a gimp).
Here's one of Legolas' high end feats:
Killing almost everyone aboard and then the Oliphant itself:
Here's Sauron killing what I think are HUMANS:
That's his only fighting feat: magic mace that appears to create a shockwave when it strikes: but he's a slow slow fighter.
Equpiment: Legolas gets both of his long knives, his bow, and a full 25 arrow quiver. His clothes are the same as seen in the video when he took down the Oliphant.
Sauron is armed exactly as he is in the video.
For scenario 1, we can allow the reasons (from the books) for why he was so powerful with the ring and why he was so hard to kill. I feel that just the movie version, alone, doesn't explain why he was so beastly.
If 1 and 2 are almost universal amongst the members, then we can do a scenario 3:
Same settings as #2 but Legolas has to kill Sauron while holding a lembas with his buttcheeks: if he crunches it between his cheeks, he loses. Can the Elf kill Sauron without crunching his Lembas or is the Elf doomed to a mess in his pants and mace in the face?
