the legend

sup guys

i don't like you.

Just to keep things in perspective, here's where drawinger really ranks on the list of legends:

1) Ulysses
2) Jason and the argonauts
3) Sinbad
4) Conan
5) Legend, the Bob Marley album
6) Legend, the movie
7) The Legend of Zelda
8) Drawinger
9) That urban legend about the chick who get suntan-boothed to death.
10) Urban Legend, the movie

From here, it looks like he still has a few things to prove. Better bone up on those archery skills, my friend.

That list will make a whole lot more sense to me if I know which Sinbad you're talking about.

Are you talking about Ulysses S. Grant or Odysseus? Cause I don't think having been a president really warrants being ahead of Jason and the Argonauts.

I must object to Legend the movie being placed above The Legend of Zelda.

Maybe he means the notoriously difficult to finish novel by James Joyce?

Ooh! Or he could have meant Ulysses 31! That guy was metal!

 If I had to do a top 5 Ulysseses, he woul be #1 easy!

Creamed corn is a legend. I don't see it in the list.

No way. That show was far too weird and disturbing. In a Ulysseses League Table it wouldn't even reach the top 10 if there was any justice. It had a catchy theme tune though so it might warrant, maybe, an 11 or 12?

The Ulysses probe would definitely outrank Sinbad the comedian, but not Sinbad the explorer. It just can't defeat Jason and the Argonauts.

Though a nightlight could defeat them. 

Now we're going to have to bring in Ray "I make creepy animatronic skeletons" Harryhausen - he'll sit in mid-table above Sinbad the comedian and James Joyce's Ulysses, but below Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger and Ulysses 31.

I hope Eye of the Tiger isn't referring to that song from Rocky, because there's no way it can beat the god known as Ray Harryhausen.

I'm one step ahead of you.

"Eye of the Tiger" - The band that played the song: Survivor. Then factor in the show: Survivor, and WWE Survivor Series.

This could get complex and it's already making me think in some crazy tangents, but there's no argument that Ray Harryhausen pretty much pwns them all.

We're going to have to spin this thread off into a "Who would win?" thread...

Don't forget George Clooney's character from O Brother, Where Art Thou?, Ulysses Everett McGill. Although based on the ancient Ulysses, UEM is much funnier and a better singer.

Sample Dialogue:

Ulysses: “Come I pray thee herein, goddess, tell me true, if there be any means whereby I might escape from the deadly Charybdis and avenge me on that other, when she would prey upon my company.”

Ulysses Everett McGill:

Pomade Vendor: I can get the part from Bristol. It'll take two weeks, here's your pomade.
Ulysses Everett McGill: Two weeks? That don't do me no good.
Pomade Vendor: Nearest Ford auto man's Bristol.
Ulysses Everett McGill: Hold on, I don't want this pomade. I want Dapper Dan.
Pomade Vendor: I don't carry Dapper Dan, I carry Fop.
Ulysses Everett McGill: Well, I don't want Fop, goddamn it! I'm a Dapper Dan man!
Pomade Vendor: Watch your language, young feller, this is a public market. Now if you want Dapper Dan, I can order it for you, have it in a couple of weeks.
Ulysses Everett McGill: Well, ain't this place a geographical oddity. Two weeks from everywhere!
