All the ways you wish you could be, that's me. I look like you wanna look, I **** like you wanna ****, I am smart, capable, and most importantly, I am free in all the ways that you are not.
Let's not forget that Zorro uses a different kind of sword: rapier. Jedi a lightsaber. Aragorn a longsword. Katsumoto a katana. We must take these into account.

Indeed. Without the force, they are just regular guys.

OK, so the force abilities they use for dueling counts, but thats it? No precog? No other powers?

Without the force the jedi/sith would be heavily disadvantaged...I hate the stupid debates in the SW forums when people say "who'd win in 1: sabres 2: force 3: all out"...As if somehow their sabre skills and fighting ability were completely seperate from their force abilities.
Can you imagine how useless Yoda would be without his using the force to leap around like a crazy maniac?
As for pure skill...Most of the people based in real world terms on that list would die badly...All the people from the Last Samurai would go 1st along with Memnon.
Not saying they're not skilled...But how would they compete against so many enemies that are basically superhuman (some to ridiculous extents)
That also takes out Zorro...I'd then say Aragorn would go along with any other fantasy or ancient warriors such as Achilles (provided we're not saying that his legend of invulnerabilty apart from his heel is true)
Peter Pan and Hook would go also. As would Wayne and Gul
In the end i'd say it would be Wade and Neo...Neo winning simply due to the fact that he can exhibit far greater strength and speed. Most of the programmes he fought in the Chateau were far in excess of any normal human and most likely would have easily killed Morpheus and Trinity.
Wade is also exceptionally fast and accurate (who else from that list could cut bullets in half and take on a room full of semi-auto weilding men with only 2 sword?...Not Nathan bloody Algren that's for sure)
trailers are meant to deceive, to get people into the theater, but I will say this Snake eyes and Storm Shadow better have a good story and great feats
