Sufficiently Developed Science is Indistinguishable from Magic

vs.
Bill Nye (Real Life) vs. Mr. Wizard (Real Life)
Science geeks duke it out.  On the one hand, the youth and knowledge of Bill Nye is a significant advantage over the older Mr. Wizard.  On the other hand, Mr. Wizard is much more experienced, calmer, and more controlled for a competition such as this.  Will Bill's youth be the death of him, or has Mr. Wizard spun his last trick?

vs.
Gandalf the White (Lord of the Rings) vs. Merlin (King Arthur Legend)
The ultimate battle of wizards is about to begin!  Gandalf and Merlin - names synonymous with magic the world wide!  Neither has much fashion sense, for sure, but otherwise, this is a battle that children will remember forever!  Which wizard will prove themselves to be the greater mage in this sure to be heated battle?


Apocalypse WOW

vs.
Zombie Plague (Real Life?) vs. Swine Flu (Real Life)
Seriously, I had to.  I mean...Jon Stewart said so.  

vs.
Bob the Builder (Bob the Builder) vs. Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor (Home Improvement)
The reincarnations of Brahman, the Creator, and Shiva, the Destroyer, respectively.  As Bob builds it, Tim destroys it.  Will the cycle of birth and rebirth maintain itself?  And most importantly, what will happen to Wilson?


Historical Pretense?

vs.
Kate Chopin (Real Life) vs. Jane Austen (Real Life)
FUCK FEMINIST LITERATURE IN THE ASS!

vs.
Squanto (Real Life) vs. Pocahontas (Real Life)
On the one hand, Squanto avoided the horrible Disney-fication that Pocahontas received.  On the other hand, at least innocent and impressionable young children know who she is.  Huh, Disney good for something?  Who would have known.


The Cake is a Lie

vs.
Al Gore (Real Life) vs. Michael Moore (Real Life)
Will we learn and inconvenient truth, or instead go bowling for Columbine once this match is over?

vs.  
Comcast (Real Life) vs. 4Kids (Real Life)
Do I need to explain this?

-----
Zombie Plague vs. Swine Flu: I'm sure if somehow, someday, a zombie plague does strike, it will live up to the ridiculous media hype better than the swine flu did.

-----
