Simple question: who would win in a one-on-one fight, Gandalf armed with his staff and Yoda with a lightsaber?
You're talking shit. Gandalf would kick Yoda's arse all the way to the moon and back. Don't make me draw on my astonishingly poor knowledge of both Star Trek and Lord of the Rings in order to prove to you what utter shit you're talking. (NB: Pursuant to further bitter disagreement, remind me: which one is Yoda now? Is he the snazzy gold-plated one, or the dome-headed one that looks like a souped-up vacuum-cleaner?)
the truth speaks out for itself, hear thy voice of wisdom the creator of this thread. The ultimate wisdom within. Yoda will win.
Ugh, that's a very difficult question to answer. Ugh, I'm going to have to think about this. Gendalf looks soooo much hotter, and LOTR is soooo much cooler as a movie and as a book. But Yoda is just smarter than Gendalf. I'm so torn. =( I guess what really turns me off about Gendalf is that he's so Christian, it's, like, yuckkkk.
Gandalf is a fracking demi-God, he survived death, defeated a Balrog, destroyed Sauron, helped install Aragorn as king, turned the tide of the Battle of Five Armies, helped drive the Necromancer from Dol Gulder and hung out with some of the wisest elves. What does Yoda do? He hides in a swamp and quotes fortune cookies! Only reason for that is because the Christians stole and corrupted a lot of native Scandinavian and Celtic myths. He's basically a low-rent Odin.

CAME BACK from - not survived, good grief, even Sheridan did that. Woohoo, he made it fall off a bridge. Fuzzy here, (it's 30 years since I read the books) but didn't the destruction of the ring do that? Happens regularly in the UK, nobody says those guys in attendance qualify for demi-godness. Lucky timing (and loads of other troops). Memory blank, you can have the point Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! Elves are girlies (just for argument). LIVES in a swamp, and when he comes out he kicks Christopher Lee's butt. Yeah, but in a Fozzy Bear voice, which is okay in my book.
I also forgot to mention that he freed Théoden from Wormtounge's influence and convinced Shadowfax to let him ride. He died and came back. Semantics. ... ... Doesn't that make him a zombie?
So he's a de-programmer as well.Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! Pfft, Thomas Covenant got ALL the Ranyhyn to let him ride - forever. Did he try biting anyone's face off? (My hamster didn't when IT came back). OOH point to me! Died and came back - my hamster did that, no big deal.
Big deal, Yoda convinced Chewbacca to let him ride. Plus "Shadowfax" is about as imposing a name as "Blackphotocopy." Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
Could yoda defeat the Balrog? I don´t think so. Only the respected bearer of Narya, the Ring of Fire, could have done that. Gandalf eats Darklords for breakfast.
None of this actually happened you know. Some bloke smoked a load of crack and made it all up. I'd just like to make that clear for the benefit of the habitually confused..
