Frieza: The planet is beginning to collapse, in two minutes, Namek will be a cloud of dust and a memory. Only one question remains to be answered, can I finish you in these two minutes? Or will you survive long enough to bear witness to the great explosion, then suffocate in the palm of space?
Goku: All I know is that I've been waiting for this moment for a long time. Now we'll finally get to see which one of us is the greatest warrior in the universe.
Frieza: Really? I supposed I've ought to feel flattered. You've signed your own death warrant just to take one more beating from me.
Narrator: On a desolate crumbling planet, the two most powerful warriors in the universe square off for the battle to end all battles. Will the winner be decided by the time Namek explodes? Find out, next Dragon Ball Z Kai!

"Bring it, bitches!"
"You've got a blackbelt in stupid if you think you're gonna beat me."
"Who can stop this constipated jock,
With the awful animation and the complicated plot?
Who's got the rap bombs to drop on Japan?
This looks like a job for the OG! Superman!"

Ragna: Who are you? Outta my way, or you're dead...
Sol Badguy: Tsk! Gun Flame!
Ragna: You gotta be kidding me. Let's get this over with!
Sol Badguy (in Japanese): I'll burn you to a crisp.

DIO: (sigh) You've interrupted my dinner.
Alucard: Funny, I was just thinking about having mine.
DIO: Then by all means...take a bite.

— DEATH BATTLE! note
If two characters
from pop culture had a fight,
who wins, and who dies?

Then Gandalf the Gray and Gandalf the White
And Monty Python and the Holy Grail's Black Knight,
and Benito Mussolini, and the Blue Meanie
and Cowboy Curtis and Jambi the Genie
Robocop, The Terminator, Captain Kirk and Darth Vader,
Lo-Pan, Superman, every single Power Ranger,
Bill S. Preston and Theodore Logan,
Spock, The Rock, Doc Ock and Hulk Hogan,
All came out of nowhere lightning-fast,
And they kicked Chuck Norris in his cowboy ass
It was the bloodiest battle that the world ever saw
With civilians looking on in total awe.

"Someone asked me yesterday if Dracula met Saruman and there was a fight who would win. I just looked at this man. What an idiotic thing to say. I mean, really, it was half-witted."
—Christopher Lee apparently has no love for this trope.
I will stop at nothing to kill the Slenderman he thinks he is so much better than me because he kidnaps!
Spock drops Logan like a particularly illogical piece of trash. The Enterprise wouldn't see someone switched off so quickly again until Commander Data arrived.
I don't care if the Hulk could defeat the Man of Steel
I'm gonna rearrange your face if you continue to debate
Whether Logan's claws could pierce Steve Rogers' shield

As the hulk reared back his head, And let forth his great yell,
Popeye didst open his spinach can, And downed it with one swill,
The 2 strong men in children's shows, Were ready to square off,
But then, as they exchanged first blows, A professer in the corner coughed.
He said, "As you can see from this diagram, The multiverse hast been breached,
And because of your two meeting, The surrounding place has reached,
A critical mass, as you might say, And it will start to fill,
With heros who are just like you, And will keep on filling until,
One, triumphant, blazes forth, And he defeats you all,
And so, I say, get yer raincoat on, Because the multiverse's about to squall!

Francisco Scaramanga: I could have shot you down when you landed, but that would have been ridiculously easy. You see, Mr. Bond, like every great artist, I want to create an indisputable masterpiece once in my lifetime: The death of 007, mano a mano, will be mine.
James Bond: You mean stuffed and mounted over your rocky mantelpiece?
Scaramanga: It's an amusing idea, but I was thinking more in terms of history. A duel between titans. My golden gun against your Walther PPK. Each of us a 50-50 chance.
Bond: Six bullets to your one?
Scaramanga: I only need one.
Bond: Pistols at dawn; it's a little old-fashioned, isn't it?
Scaramanga: That it is. But it remains the only true test for gentlemen.
Bond: On that score, I doubt you qualify. However, I accept.
The North Sea has drawn them here
The fleets of the high seas approach
A contest of titans commence
These days will dictate their fate
The Grand Fleet prepares their guns
Unleashed as the dreanoughts clash at last!

Eric Bowman: My college friend and I have had this debate for years now: if you put a million hungry ants in a glass cube with one human, who's more likely to walk out alive?
Randall Munroe: Everyone always assumes that if you put two animals together like this, they'll battle to the death, which is a very Pokemon-esque view of biology.
