Yeah, we’re thinking we’re back: this week’s Gladiator II-inspired Showdown is a literal showdown. Specifically, a battle royale, which is defined as “a fight, often to the death, in which more than two combatants are engaged and the victor is the last surviving participant”. The “more than two combatants” is the most crucial here, as we’ve run a previous Showdown for best one-on-one duels. Grab your Hattori Hanzo steel and slash up a list of your ten favourite large-scale fights, be they between running men or attacking clones. For extra credit, add the particular scene in the notes, i.e. “The newscaster battle” for Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy.
