Has the whole "vs" thing gotten out of hand?

it's always been around. purely semantics. "vs" threads used to be called "who ya got?"

No...because I have yet to see the inevitable:

Who wins in a fight?

It's the ultimate nerd/fanboy discussion.

Darth Vader vs. Darth Maul
John McClane vs. John Matrix
Neo vs. Skywalker
Han Solo vs. Indiana Jones
Johnny Utah vs. Antonio Scarpacci

The combinations are endless....

But see Freauxzen, it's not that I'm against vs threads in general IF the the two subjects being discussed are related in a sensible way.

The vs thread has gotten bastardized to where the two subjects aren't even related except by something stupid and irrelevant like they both are the same age.

P.S. didn't realize SFP started this thread earlier this week.

Oh no, I agree. I was being sarcastic, a little at least.

Guess my meter is broken this morning

Personally I'd love to see:

Takashi Shimura vs Toshiro Mifune
Star Wars vs Lord of the Rings
Popcorn Films vs Art Films
Steven Spielberg's Serious Movies vs Spielberg's Fun Movies

These have much better potential for deep thought than just "I like Person A better because he was in this movie and Person B wasn't." I guess I just felt like ranting this morning.
