Well....

I wonder if we can sue for stealing our future-thoughts?
Be fair, that's up there with Astro-Nutkins vs. O-rage-o-tang.
And unless those pesky yanks have got pretty darned good at making TV shows in double-quick time, I'm reckoning THEY came up with it first.
If it's anything like the rest of US TV, it'll be 3 minutes of watchable footage padded with 28 minutes of adverts, 18 minutes of replays and 11 minutes of interviews with idiots, to make an unwatchable hour.
By that I mean - which would be last alive.
Also several of my "zanier" posts have ended up in Official PS2 Magazine, in one form or another.
Nice.
I second that proposal, though ironically if we had a T-rex vs Standy-Still Statue man in Covent Garden, he'd be doing the exact thing to keep himself alive.
Stubborn Donkey vs Vociferous Velociraptor
Belligerent Badger vs Ostentacious Otter
Playful Puppy from Blue Peter vs Ugly man from any Refuse collection crew with shovel and brick
Polar Bear vs Standy-Still Statue man in Covent Garden
Anaconda vs that old biddy that played Ethel in Eastenders.
Enraged Hippo vs Toby Anstis
Gorilla vs Graham Norton (Trading Places flashback here)
I want gore and fleeing and teeth and fur-ripping.
Or at least a drunken Elephant trying to get back to it's enclosure with loads of irate midgets lobbing velcro spears at a vest it's been forced to wear.
He'd just let the stupid Gorilla walk around beating his chest and wear himself out and then go in for the kill.
Polar bears aint as cuddly as they look.
Anyway why would you want to watch someone race a Giraffe? Two drunken Hippos racing on an ice rink would be a better televisual prospect. Also if there weren't silly laws protecting animals, we'd all love to see if a Polar Bear would best a Gorilla in a scrap.
Yet they make it legal to broadcast Eastenders.
Go figure.
Who wants to see a dude race a giraffe? I want to see an ex-Marine fighting a Kodiak bear, not out-eating it.
And I want to see an Olympic swimmer try to beat a crocodile in a river-swin.
And Terry Nutkins being beaten stupid by an enraged Orangutan in zero-G.
