Batman (Dark Knight): http://batman.wikia.com/wiki/Batman_%28 ... an_Bale%29

Rambo (First Blood Part II): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Rambo

Rules:

-All characters are film incarnations.
-Batman is equipped with only his batarangs, grappling hooks and his standard suit of armor. Batarangs unlimited.
-Rambo is equipped with his knife and bow-and-arrow. Arrows unlimited.
-Fight happens at the beginning of sunset. One hour before night fall.
-No interference (natural hazards).
-Fight to the death.

Arena: Central America, middle of a jungle.

Outcome: Not sure about this one. Both combatants have shown to be quite skillful in their respective appearances. If Rambo can successfully use the jungle to his advantage (which he frequently did) and the fact that the Dark Knight is in unfamiliar surroundings could tip it towards his favor. However, batman still has his armor to protect him to a certain degree and by nightfall, batman will probably be at a lesser disadvantage than Rambo seeing as he his dressed in black.

Anyway, I abstain for now.

Batman. The armor puts him firmly at the advantage. Rambo would need to hit him in the eye. And, in case you didn't notice, Batman's not so easy to hit.

[Berzerkgodzilla]

Fight to the death? I think that's one disadvantage for Batman, seeing as he's so unwilling to kill, (Even someone like the Joker) unless it is necessary or accidental. Even then I don't think Rambo will really be able to get Batman, and with that body armor and is skill at fighting I'd see Batman winning in the end anyway. And Batman has demonstrated he's not afraid to break a couple of his adveseries bones, even if Batman doesn't kill, how would Rambo fight if both his arms were broken?

[Primevalgodzilla V2]

Is it a pure close-quarters battle? Or are they hunting each other through the forest?

[NoName]

This is meant to be a hunt for the most part (hence the range weapons). But close-combat could occur (haven't said that it isn't allowed). But mainly, yes, it is a hunt.

Then Rambo would have the advantage. Batman would tear him in have if they had a fist fight though.

[wataru]

Middle of a jungle? Rambo has the advantage. Batman is mostly an urban fighter and the fear-factor isnt going to effect Rambo. Hand-to-hand, Batman's going to take it but with the arrows and arena, I see Rambo having more advantage.

And Batman doesnt kill, and Rambo does. I say Rambo.

And Batman's armor doesnt cover 100% of his body. Have you watched TDK?

It's still a fight to the death. If Batman is seemingly not allowed to kill directly, he could still leave Rambo for dead if he manages to hit him and that could count as a victory I guess...

Was that directed at me? If so, remember that I said I was giving both combatants a 50/50 shot on this.

[Reaper Man]

It's the goddam Batman.

[NoName]

Reaper, if this was any of the animated series or comic batman, it would definitely go to him. But the batman in DK isn't all that tough. Rambo mowed through an entire platoon of soldiers while batman knocked out a couple of SWAT guys. So they're still pretty even in this (with range at least).

[Gawdziller]

It's the goddam Batman.

But it's also the goddamn Rambo. That factor is totally cancelled out.

[pknight96]

Batman may not kill, but Rambo will never know where he is... until he's on top of him, beating the shit out of Rambo. Batman wins.

[Carthormerr]

The key is when they come face to face and start talking to one another, neither will be able to understand a single word the other one says. After 5-10 min of this, they just walk away.

It's a jungle dude, and TDK Batman was never shown to have jungle training. Rambo has extensive experience.

[pknight96]

Yes, but Batman would wait until night to make his move. He is INCREDIBLY intelligent and adaptable (As seen in DKR, 'cause it's still the same guy). It wouldn't take long for the Dark Knight to adapt to the environment. Rambo's arrows would have to hit him in the eyes or the mouth to hurt/kill Batman. Batman's batarangs won't kill, but they'll hurt no matter where they hit. Batman is also much better than Rambo in close quarters, able to fight Bane quite well.

Batman's armor does not cover his entire body. And youre assuming Batman has the room to throw a batarang or finds Rambo.

Yall are acting like Rambo is just going to walk into the jungle and just start mowing down the trees.

He's adaptable but he's still going to be quite visible with that suit of his. Also, I don't get this whole 'hit him in eye/mouth' thing. His only protected part seems to be his chest and back. What if Rambo gets in a shot at his throat, stomach, leg, crotch etc? Plus, if he's so armored then he won't have too much mobility now will he?

If we're gonna talk about DKR, in the first fight, Bane was winning and managed to u-shape his spine. Rambo, on the other hand, took on a similar (although less threatening) opponent in RIII with that big Russian guy and pulled off a win in the first go. Also, didn't we see in DKR that Talia stabs him with a knife and it goes through just fine? Why couldn't Rambo just stab him or throw his knife at him?

Like I've said, I think they've both got a 50/50 chance of winning. However, I don't see why Batman would indefinitely win over Rambo.

[RedZillaKing]

Actually, Batman's suit is almost entirely armor plated. I wonder about the graphite cowl. Would that stop an arrow?

The suit from BB and TDK is not the same. The suit in TDK has plates. His joints are exposed. He wanted to turn his head.

[RedZillaKing]

I was talking about the Dark Knight suit. Bats would only be vulnerable in the seams. It's going to be tough for Rambo to pick him off from a distance.
