now sometimes the best fights are fought
mano-a-mano I thought we could settle
this like men you thought wrong dude
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be counting down the top 10 sci-fi movie
duels just to avoid confusion our list
includes showdowns involving two
opponents that are similarly matched
we’re dispensing the traditional
honorbound arranged meeting aspect of
the definition of duel and we’ll be
omitting Supergirl flicks number 10
Arthur vs. the mental projection
inception
kicking off our list is this
breathtaking fight between Joseph
gordon-levitt and an aggressive mental
projection during a mind heist
when gravity disappears he is forced to
defend himself with hand-to-hand combat
incredibly this fight did not make use
of CGI but took place on a rotating set
that twisted and turned and took over
three weeks to film
number nine not out versus Frank they
live I’m giving you a choice either put
on these glasses our start is Matt trash
wrestlers and sci-fi are always a match
made in heaven
here rowdy roddy piper picks a fight
with his friend after he refuses to put
on his sunglasses put on the glasses no
joke that’s the deal of course these are
special sunglasses that allow the wearer
to see aliens among us but he’s not
having it I told you I didn’t want to be
in this fight doesn’t contain any 0g
robots or lasers but is one of the most
realistic grueling and drawn-out fights
to involve two ordinary Joe’s sorry
seriously they fight for a really long
time you are under arrest
number eight Robocop vs. 209 Robocop
better take me in when Robocop discovers
that OCP is running a racket between
Detroit’s police and a major gang he
attempts to arrest the corrupt executive
who’s responsible any attempt to arrest
a senior officer voz de miss Elson shut
down his progress is slowed when he
stopped by his fourth prime directive
and the ever-popular ed-209 this prompts
some sweet robot on robot action
while the outgunned Robocop takes a
severe beating he luckily discovers his
opponents greatest weakness stairs I’ll
chase him round the moons of nippy and
round the antares maelstrom and round
perdition’s flames before I give him up
number seven
Kirk vs Khan Star Trek to the Wrath of
Khan
calm your still remember and now a
unique duel on our list this one
features opponents that have never met
face to face at least not in the movie
sir a shields are dropping
instead it involves Kirk and his
greatest enemy in a battle of wits with
equally matched Federation starships
their space duel goes back and forth as
both suffer substantial losses
throughout finally luring Khan into the
Mutara nebula the two starships continue
to battle blind before Kirk edges out of
victory
number six Optimus Prime versus Megatron
transformers the movie if there was one
giant robot fight to rule them all it’s
this one one shall stand one he shall
fall not one kid left the theater with
dry pants after seeing Optimus Prime
battle Megatron for one last time an
evenly matched fight from a fist fight
two laser cannons and an energy blade it
all comes down to Optimus hesitating to
finish the job crappy mercy I beg of you
you who are without mercy
now plead for it Megatron regaining the
upper hand and the two Titans finally
meeting their end together sure they
fight again in Michael Bay’s films but
it wasn’t the same number 5 neo vs.
agent Smith the matrix
no one has ever fought an agent and
survived until now this is the fight in
which Neel finally began to embrace his
destiny as the one and was thus able to
match speed and skill with his
arch-nemesis in a subway station
starting off like a western complete
with an urban tumbleweed they fire off
every remaining bullet before resorting
to come of food your empty Smith almost
ends it all with a headlock but Neil
gets the jump on him at the last second
number four Dutch vs. predator predator
in this confrontation its Arney as the
last man standing versus an Alien Hunter
with superior technology the two most
dangerous warriors from two different
planets
Arnie shows that he’s not just brawn but
brains as well as he uses mud to conceal
his body’s heat and creates impromptu
weapons and traps ultimately he uses the
Predators thermal vision against him and
their grueling fight takes several
twists bad idea before Arnie comes out
on top
and the predator tries to rage quit you
have been much young one your finer full
of surprises number three
Luke vs. Vader Star Wars Episode five
the Empire Strikes Back though Luke
didn’t know it at the time
this was in fact the greatest
father-and-son fight ever recorded a
lightsaber duel it first consisted of
Vader testing Luke and leading him
towards a freezing chamber defying
expectations
Luke proved the light Jedi’s can jump
impressive most impressive though Luke
temporarily held his own his defiance
sure caused Vader to throw a shitstorm
and disarmed him with the truth
I can go father number two Ripley versus
the alien queen aliens this iconic
confrontation sees the alien queen
stowaway on Ripley’s ship after we all
thought it was over
caught off guard
Ripley lets loose her motherly instincts
when Newt is threatened get away from
her you bitch she does this by making
you of a balls-out awesome power loader
in order to engage the massive Zeno in
sci-fi straightest cat fight complete
with neck squeezing a welding torch and
an airlock
number one t800 versus the t1000
terminator to judgement day terminating
our list is the battle between the t800
and the near indestructible liquid metal
t1000 a fight for the survival of the
human race Arnie’s Terminator gives it
his all and takes one hell of a beer
but proving that you can’t beat the
classic models his t800 pulls an
energizer bunny and keeps on going a
carefully timed grenade over a smelting
pit clinches the victory and dissolves
his opponents chances agree with our
list which sci-fi dual is your favorite
form or confrontation fuel top 10s be
