FABULOUS FEUDS!

There have been some doozies over the decades, out there, pitting giants and dwarves against each other... until death did them part. Or sheer embarrassment - for both sides - whichever came first? Anyway...  It is human nature to crave such things, it seems - we are born belligerent and petty - and we die that way, oftentimes. Those who do not dare partake in such silly warfare watch on from the sidelines, secretly dreaming and concocting their very own scaled-down versions of those things, in their own backyards... Full-scale high profile rivalries are the ones getting all the time in the spotlight, of course - but who wants such scrutiny, when you can triumph over your quarry in totally comfortable sheer anonymity - hmm? Plus, such a way to go about it may help greatly, later on, in a court of so-called "law" - which is not a disadvantageous bonus at all! But we digress...

The high profile feuds are the only ones the masses can know about, for sure - thus the only ones we can ask about, here, for *you* to vote on - on the taste-testing blog! DUH.   And, indeed, there are so  many ongoing great ones right now... it's not even funny! Most of them are much-chronicled too, sure... But they were never bothered with here - so...! Historically, there have been many vicious ones, also... Several didn't end until one of the two rivals was officially out of it - whether out of business or six feet under! We'll get to those in a jiffy... don't worry!

Now, the latest, greatest to hit the airwaves (or the net, or wherever it is being broadcast, really - like, who truly cares or watches anymore - huh?) is this one:


Donna-Adorable vs Joel McHale 


Rrrrrrright. 


With that in mind and in sight, what would *you* call 
the most fabulous feud of all... 
ever... anywhere... OF ALL TIME?


This one? 








or is it... this one:








Or could it be... this one? 

















Are there others we should have given 
a chance to here...?

A Fast Food Free-For-All - 
pitting the clown, the king, the bear 
and many others against each other? 

A Pizza Dough Battle Royale - 
with the hut, BP and several doubles 
all gunning for Caesar's laurels...? 

Haute Couture Showdown? 

Grand Chef Gastronomy Face-Off?  

TV Ratings War... lol, ah, no; not that one! 
Traditional TV has long been dead now...!!! 

Movie Studios? 
Specific Industry Giants...? 
Governments...? 

Hell - this is gonna end with 
WORLD WAR III here!!!

Let's not go there... eh

BvS versus BvS - lol

I have had very little luck with embedded music on this -or any other of my blogs! STILL... Here we shall go again, simply due to the fact that I like to be able to supply a listen in order to properly judge the material... right? It cannot be done otherwise! Hence - here we are now...

I have previously stated my belief that Hans is a hack - I know... And someone named ''Junkie XL'' should NEVER get my luminous nod of approval here - anywhere! But this has been haunting me ever since I first heard it...
Let's take it to the people!  Let THEM decide...
Which one of these tracks is LESS OF A not-so-subtle-HACK then: in other words, which one comes the closest to being almost-original...?!?

The soundtrack of that somewhat-maligned film certainly delivered what it was supposed to - it enhanced the action on that screen, rendering it less ''comic-booky'' and elevating it to a level that it may not have been supposed to reach - ever. (And that goes for ALL ''comic-booky flicks'' - but that is another story, another debate - for another blog!)

CHOOSE between the two best pieces of music from the ''Dawn of Justice'' (the much better title for that flick - its subtitle!) that raked in somewhat less than expected, at the box-office: 850-some millions, when they hoped for more than a billion. Boo-hoo.

THE PIECES ARE...    ''BEAUTIFUL LIE''



and ''IS SHE WITH YOU''




And, in closing...
may I add my true feelings here...
(as if they were not obvious enough!)
and say ''why, oh but why
wasn't there MORE of a true DAWN
of JUSTICE in this film:
more Wonder Woman
more Aquaman
more Flash
more Cyborg
- more LEAGUE!!!''

Unbelievably enough,
most of fandom out there
thought the exact OPPOSITE...!

DC Fans - as bad as Marvel Zombies!
(must be the ultimate insult right here!)
:-)

Warlord: Will The Real One Please Stand?






For my part, I still prefer the REMCO version - allegedly on steroids!
Much better than the purportedly skin-and-bones DC Direct version...!





And you?
