The Whedon Universe Top 10 Fight Scenes

[h0stile17]

I'm pleased to announce this years topic for our Top 10 Video Countdown - The Top 10 Fight Scenes.

So here's where you get to have your decisions be a part of our track this year. You give us your top 10 list. It can span Television, movies and comics.  The only restrictions are that it must be something that directly involve Joss Whedon and you must give us the scene/episode because we have to get clips.  If it's in the comics you have to include the issue so that we can do something neat there.

Examples:
Buffy vs Spike is too vague
Buffy vs Spike in the Harsh Light of Day - GOOD!
Angel vs Spike is too vague
Angel vs Spike in Just Rewards
Mal vs The Operative is too vague
Mal vs The Operative at the Training House - Good!

Does it have to be a one of the signature shows? Can it be in something other than Buffy/Firefly etc.  Yes!

Example:
Dwight Schrute vs The Bat in The Office - YES!!
Ripley vs The Alien in Alien Resurrection - YES!!


So feel free to post your replies here or you can email them to us at top10list@whedonuniverse.com

Good Luck!

If we want to include "mental duels" then I'd submit the entire exchange between Echo and Alpha in "Omega".

Nicely Done Kevin.  Like I said.  The door is wide open on this one.

Spike vs Angel - "Destiny"

It's my favorite episode of Ange - all 5 years.

[usagianddarien]

Spike vs. Wood "Lies My Parents Told Me" Buffy Season 7

Spike Vs. Buffy "Smashed Season" six (come what's not to love they end up having sex!!)

Buffy vs. Faith at the end of "Who are you" Season 4 it's were Buffy is Faith and Faith is Buffy

Does toy story count as whedon universe, i mean he did write it.  if so i would also have to say the fight between buzz and woody at the gas station.

This has been extremely difficult for me, and I've been mulling over it since it was announced. I think I've finally come up with a list that I am mostly satisfied with. The first 4 were fairly easy for me, but the remaining 6 had me rearranging their order several times.

1. Buffy vs. Caleb  End of Days (Buffy Season 7)
2. Buffy vs. Angelus  Becoming Part II (Buffy Season 2)
3. Slayers/Scoobies vs. Uber-vamps  Chosen (Buffy Season 7)
4. Angel vs. Spike  Destiny (Angel Season 5)
5. Buffy vs. Spike  The Harsh Light of Day (Buffy Season 4)
6. River vs. The Reavers  Serenity the movie
7. Spike vs. Wood  Lies My Parents Told Me (Buffy Season 7)
8. Buffy/Riley vs. Gentleman  Hush (Buffy Season 4)
9. Buffy vs. Faith  This Year's Girl (Buffy Season 4)
10. Puppet Angel vs. Evil Puppets  Smile Time (Angel Season 5)

[Labrynth]

I'm still pondering this one.

[swtcheri78]

I just happened to look at the list I posted and realized that I had reversed 2 of them from the list I had written down. I made the correction in my original post above.
This is a wonderful topic btw, if I haven't already said that.

[Carnelionne]

1. Faith vs. Buffy in Graduation Day. (Buffy Season 3)
2. Mal vs the Operative by Mr. Universe's transmitter. (Serenity)
3. Buffy vs Spike in Dead Things. (Buffy Season 6)
4. River vs Bar patrons (Serenity)
5. Giles vs Ben in The Gift (Buffy Season 5) (Not sure if it really counts as a fight scene, but DANG!)
6. Spike vs Illyria in Origin (Angel Season 5)
7. Angel with peeps vs Senior Partners in Not Fade Away (Angel Season 5)
8. Xander vs Harmony in The Initiative (Buffy Season 4)
9. Buffy vs Faith in Who Are You (Buffy Season 4)
10. Buffy vs Demon Andrew in Life Serial (Buffy Season 6)

Some of these fights are poignant and painful, others simply hilarious. Kinda like life. And this is why I love Joss.

[Ziggy]

Haha...yes, add in another vote for Xander vs. Harmony 

[Leanne1672]

Xander vs Harmony Nice Lady-slap fight is EPIC. Faith and Buffy fighting on the roof-top for graduation episode, and the fight with them in the other's body... Angel vs Buffy in Becoming... PUPPET ANGEL VS SPIKE!!!!!! Spike vs Buffy in "Smashed" does end quite wonderfully... LOL...

[TheStig]

Faith vs. Buffy (Graduation Day), Buffy vs Faith (Who Are You), Xander vs Harmony (The Initiative), Echo vs Paul (Man on the Street), and Echo vs. Alpha (A Love Supreme).
