Empire Strikes Back, the Samantha Baker chapion, takes on Raiders of the Lost Ark, the Lacey Underall winner. Your vote counts!

Han Solo vs. Indiana Jones. Awesome.

Not even close....

I don't particularly love either film, but I went with Raiders.

Edgy DC Feb 06 2009 10:31 AM

That's a good vote. On the other hand, Raiders lacks a certain Yodaric element.

Centerfield Feb 06 2009 11:39 AM

Hard to see this outcome is.

Vote for Yoda you must!

Vic Sage Feb 06 2009 12:16 PM

wow, tough one, but for EMPIRE vote i must!

Vince Coleman Firecracker Feb 07 2009 12:02 PM

Sallah > Yoda Raiders for me.

Tough vote but Empire satisfies my puppet fetish like no other film.

And while I'm at it: Katanga > Lando Belloq > The Emperor Marion Ravenwood > Hoth Leia (note: I'm not saying slave Leia) and Vader vs Toht is a lot closer than people might think. I LOVE Empire, but Raiders is in my top ten. Elster88 Feb 10 2009 09:09 PM This should be the final. Benjamin Grimm Feb 11 2009 07:17 AM For me, this one's easy. I've never been a <i>Star Wars</i> fan, and I loved <i>Raiders</i> back when it first came out. (I watched it again in 2008 and it didn't send me like it originally did, but it still gets my vote, easily.) John Cougar Lunchbucket Feb 11 2009 07:25 AM Yeah, what Ben said. batmagadanleadoff Feb 11 2009 07:38 AM ROTLA! What's Star Wars? Elster88 Feb 11 2009 06:56 PM Empire Wins! ]Vader vs Toht is a lot closer than people might think. Untrue. Edgy DC Feb 11 2009 08:31 PM There's a lot of good reasons to vote for Raiders. Sallah > Yoda is not one of them. Vince Coleman Firecracker Feb 12 2009 04:45 AM ="Edgy DC"]There's a lot of good reasons to vote for Raiders. Sallah > Yoda is not one of them. Empire has nothing like the sequence in Raiders that starts after Indy and Marion leave the Well of Souls, wherein the landing strip explodes, Indy fights that bald Nazi and then takes out an entire caravan while unarmed and on horseback. I think it's the greatest action sequence ever put on film. And I enjoy Sallah much more than Yoda. Bad dates. Edgy DC Feb 12 2009 05:43 AM Thee you go. That first paragraph. Excellent reason to vote for <i>Raiders</i>. That second one, though, is tough date to swallow.
