Favorite Sci-Fi Smackdown?

[wautd]

I'll be back (The Terminator duh)

[Ford Prefect]

That moment when Vader picks up the Emperor to throw him down the shaft. Magnificent.

[SylasGaunt]

Gotta love the 1953 War of the Worlds.

The martians cook the priest, the army opens up. The martians just kinda sit there for a minute and let the army fling shells and rockets at them (which just bounce off their shields).. then after a bit it's just like.. 'My turn!' and they open up.

[Imperial Overlord]

Hari Michaelson aka Caine in Hero's Die and The Blade of Tyshall. Constant ownage.

Sample: "Well kid, thanks to your hatred of me you've managed to doom every human being on the planet. How's that go with your owth to protect humanity?"

Caineslayer: "You're responsible too."

Caine: "Yeah, but I'm the enemy of god, so what did you expect?"

[Typhonis 1]

Origional Robocop... the vice president of the company that has been dealing with the criminals and such is holding the presdent hostage as they leave. Murphy can't shoot him since he is an executive officer of OCP..

President of Corporation. "Dick you`re FIRED."

Robocop "Thank you"

[Batman]

Damn. You didn't leave me any.
Wait you did.
The end of 'Dark City', where Murdoch owns the Strangers.
The end of 'Matrix', when Neo gets back up after supposedly having been killed, wipes the floor with Smith, and scares the other two Agents into running away.(Of course, that's basically the same scene )
The 'Mech Commander' opening movie.
All the others I can think of have already been mentioned or aren't SciFi.

[Shroom Man 777]

Gunshop owner: You can't do that!
Ahnuld: Wrong. *BANG!*

[NecronLord]

And a recent one:

“We have your associate. You will obey or she will be exterminated.”
“No.”
“Explain yourself.”
“I said no.”
“What is the meaning of this negative?”
“It means no.”
“But she will be destroyed.”
“No. 'Cause this is what I’m gonna do. I’m going to rescue her. I’m going to save Rose Tyler from the middle of the Dalek fleet, and then I’m going to save the Earth, and then, just to finish off, I’m going to wipe every stinking Dalek out of the sky.”
“But you have no weapons... no defenses... no plan!”
“Yeah, and doesn’t that scare you to death?"

[Darth Sephiroth]

At the end of the second book of the Alien novel trillogy (The one that ends with Female War) when the Queen pops the bastard general's head off and walks away.

[Luzifer's right hand]

In the Perry Rhodan series shortly after the KDZ(Short for the german version of Constructors of the Center)detonate the sun of the Uleb, the KDZ tell the grandadminstrator that they also plan to annhilate Haluter which are related to the Uleb(and allies of the Solar Imperium) and will destroy the Imperium if they help the Haluter.
A ship of the Solar Fleet destroys a star close the the system of the Uleb shortly after this and the Flaghsip of the Solar Fleets shows that the shields of the KDZ-Ships offer no protection against the a new anti-shields weapon of the Solar Imperium by destroying a capital vessel of the KDZ. He threatens that they will fly to the home galaxy of the KDZ an destroy all stars in it if the fleet of the KDZ does not retreat. The fleet of the KDZ retreats to M87 shortly afterwards.

firefly:

malcom: "to show mercy is the sign of a great man"
(cuts man on the chest with sword)
"well, i'm pretty good"
(cuts man on the chest again)
"well i'm allright."

farscape special on the peacekeepers dvd when all the stars introduce themselves in a meeting and who they play and the guy who plays braca goes: "CAPTAIN braca, peacekeeper"

[Lord of the Abyss]

From a Niven story : Over a video phone, a theorist is telling an Emperor how to win an interstellar war. In galactic history, many cultures and species have tried to build a time machine, but never succeeded. Some odd disaster always destroys them first, like mass sterility. He says a time machine would cause paradox, and that cannot be allowed - the natural forces of the universe destroy any who try. All the Empire need to do is leak the idea and the plans to the enemy; they will try to build the machine and be destroyed. The Emperor is convinced and authorizes the plan. At that point, the theorist's window fills with light and he catches on fire screaming "What's happening ?! What's happening ?!". The Emperor replies, "The Sun just went nova, I expect." and turns off the screen.

From B5 :
Lord Refa : "Why would I abandon them?"
Londo : "Because I have asked you too, and because your loyalty to our people would be greater than your ambition, and because I have poisoned your drink."

From Crown of Slaves, when the Scrag is about to rape Berry, until Thandi, having "flowed into the room like liquid menace" grabs his wrist from behind, slams him into a grill and proceeds to administer the beatdown.

From March to the Sea, the scence where a 3 meter tall Mardukan barbarian chief stands in front of his his army and issues challanges and insults. Price Roger walks forward and draws his sword. In one parry and 2 strikes he disembowels and decapitates the giant barb. He sweeps his sword at the stunned enemy, scattering blood toward them before spitting and walking back to his lines amid his army's cheers.

From Ashes of Victory :

"] His voice and image cut off, and Tourville blinked. What the—?
"Jesus Christ!" someone yelped, and Tourville spun his chair in the direction of the shout, then froze, staring in disbelief at the main visual display.
Twelve glaring spheres of unendurable brightness spalled the velvety blackness of deep space. They were huge, and so hellishly brilliant it hurt to look at them even with the display's automatic filters. And even as he stared at them, he saw another ripple of glaring light, much further away. It was impossible to make out any details of the second eruption, but it appeared to be on the approximate bearing of Javier Giscard's flagship . . . and the StateSec battle squadron which had been assigned to ride herd on him.
Lester Tourville wrenched his eyes back to the fading balls of plasma which had been the ships of Citizen Rear Admiral Heemskerk's squadron. The silence on his flag bridge was total, like the silence a microphone picked up in hard vacuum, and he swallowed hard.
And then the spell was broken as Shannon Foraker looked up from the console from which she had just sent a perfectly innocent-seeming computer code over the tactical net to one of the countless ops plans she'd downloaded to the units of Twelfth Fleet over the last thirty-two T-months.
"Oops," she said."

As well as :

"So you're replacing me, are you?" Saint-Just barked a laugh. "Are you really crazy enough you actually want this job?"
"I don't want it, and I'll do my best to avoid it. But the important thing is that the decent men and women of the Republic can't let someone like you have it any longer."
"So now what?" Saint-Just demanded. "A big show trial before the execution? Proof of my 'crimes' for the Proles and the newsies?"
"No," the citizen admiral said softly. "I think we've had enough of those sorts of trials."
His hand rose with Saint-Just's pulser, and the Citizen Chairman's eyes widened as the muzzle aligned with his forehead at a meter's range.
"Good-bye, Citizen Chairman."

The scene inHonor Among Enemies, when Aubrey Wanderman pounds ship bully and his former tormentor Steilmen into pulp:

He'd never even touched the bastard. Even through his agony, that thought burned in his brain like poison. The snotnose hadn't just beaten him; he'd destroyed him, and he'd made it look so easy.
"That's for me and Ginger Lewis," Aubrey Wanderman said, stepping back from the man he'd once feared as MacBride waved the Marines forward at last. "I hope you enjoyed it, asshole," he finished coldly through the other man's sobbing pain. "I certainly did."

The trial by combat scene in War Gods Own where Bahzell doesn't just beat Vaijon, but makes in clear he's no challenge at all.

The scenes in From the Highlands when :

Fourteen year old Helen kills 3 would be rapists.

Anton Zilwiki and Robert Tye easily defeat, interrogate and kill a Scrag "superman", all the while lecturing him on his mistakes :

"You're only a 'superman,' Kennesaw, if you compare the average of the Sacred Band to the average of the rest of humanity. Unfortunately, you're now in the hands of two men who, in different ways, vary quite widely from the norm. Partly because of our own genetic background, and partly due to training and habit."

Same book when Victor massacres his fellow SS members :

Victor waded into the mob of Scrags, firing relentlessly, using the modern flechette gun in close quarters like a rampaging Norseman might have used an ax. Again and again and again, just as he had trained for in the years since he marched out of the slums to fight for his own. He made no attempt to take cover, no attempt to evade counterfire. Never realizing, even, that the sheer fury of his charge was his greatest protection.
But Victor was no longer thinking of tactics. Like a berserk, he would meet his enemies naked. The Red Terror against the White Terror, standing on the open field of battle. As he had been promised.
He would make it so. Sneer and be damned!
The shots went true and true and true and true. The boy from the mongrel warrens hammered supermen into pulp; the young man betrayed wreaked a war god's terrible vengeance; and the officer of the Revolution found its truth in his own betrayal.
Sneer and be damned!

[Edi]

Baltar's execution in the standalone TV movie version from the old BSG.

[speaker-to-trolls]

From the book 'First Lensman' by E.E Doc Smith:

[quote=First Lensman"]The visitor, making his way unobserved through the labarotory of the Hill, stepped to within six feet of a big Norwegian seated at an electrono-optical bench. Drawing an automatic pistol, he shot the unsuspecting scientist seven times, as fast as he could, twice through the brain, and five times through the spine.
"Ah, Gharlane of Eddore, I have been expecting you to look me up"[/quote]

I didn't much care for the rest of the book, but I just thought that sequence was great.

[Chmee]

I guess it got no votes because the smackdown didn't stick, but I thought somebody would mention:

"I've done more than kill you. I've hurt you. And I wish to go on...hurting you. I shall leave you as you left me. As you left her. Marooned for all eternity in the center of a dead planet. Buried alive... Buried alive... Buried alive..."

[Junghalli]

That scene in Robocop 3 where Robocop walks into the police station, asks to be pointed in the direction of the villain's mercenary thugs, tells them "you may want to call the fire department" and proceeds to burninate their asses.

If fanfics are allowed I have a couple.

The scene in Terran Empire: Reap the Whirlwind where the Terran soldier kills the incompetent spoiled horndog politico governor. And the part where Admiral Chriton realized how thoroughly he'd fucked up, moments before being stabbed by Chang.

The whole of Drakafic: Night of the Superforts. It was so sweet.

[The Grim Squeaker]

Yoda ass slapping Dooku.

Yoda blasting sidious's lightning back at him and throwing the pods back at his smug face.

The beast devouring most of the knights (Monty python and the holy grail)

[Lord of the Abyss]

The scene in one of the Bolo novels, where these pirates land on a farm planet and spread out to start looting and killing - and out of a huge building rolls the Bolo Lancelot. The killing's on the other side, then.

The Schlock Mercenary strip where a bounty hunter has captured Doyt. She asks him "Which tank is yours ?" His reply : "The one whose turrent isn't tracking you." All the hunters eyes bug out as they turn to look...

All the scenes in Schlock Mercenary where the Toughs cut short somebody's legal negotiation by killing the attorney drone(s). "You may not like me, but you'll find it difficult to sue."

In the post Apocalypse novel Hiero's Journey, near the end the hero manages a stalemate between an army of the telepathic Unclean and a mind- controlling fungoid entity called the House. They are all in a prewar military installation; while the bad guys are all paralysed mind wrestling each other, Hiero simply sets the self destruct and leaves.

You sure you're not referring to Sir Kendrick (the only Bolo in my knowledge who's ever been knighted).

[Tsyroc]

In the otherwise absolutely awful movie King Kong Lives Kong pounds the bad guy into the ground with his fist.

[Pcm979]

Pretty much the entire last third of Equilibrium, including but not limited to (and I may get these wrong):

-The bit where Preston's being tested for emotions and he realises he's been played. The readings get higher... And higher... And higher... And flatline.

Doctor: Oh, Sh-

Pwnzing proceeds.

-The bit where he faces the Secondary Bad Guy, name forgotten. Secondary Bad Guy smack-talks about how he's going to rip Preston a new one, hefts Katana, and SLICE! SLICE! His face falls off.

[Chmee]

Another SG-1 Smackdown ...

*SG-1 spoiler alert*

The whole face-off between O'Neill and Baal in Reckoning is some of my favorite stuff ever from that show. What a tremendous payback Jack gets after the way Baal abused him in Abyss

Hard to choose between:

"I’ve got a better idea. Instead of helping you, why don’t we sit back and watch you get your ass kicked? That way you’ll be dead ... and we’ll be glad."

or

"You know that bitter taste in your throat, that’s kind of wrapped around your uvula? That’s what’s left of your pride."

[Kane Starkiller]

In Endymion when Nemes is following Raul in some cave. Shrike appears in front of her (even though the bitch is in fast time mode) and smacks her so hard that she is sent flying hundreds of meters before hitting the cave wall and burrowing a few meters straigth into the rock.

Already mentioned.

Neo getting his ass kicked by the oracle smith.
Dooku kicking that prick Anakin's ass in AOTC.

Already mentioned.

The scene Tasoth mentioned is not the same, the one he is reffering to comes from Rise of Endymion.

Additionaly the scene in which Shrike defeats Gyges by crushing his head in with it's jaws also rules.
