Batman vs. Darth Vader: Who Would Win in a Fight? Here's the Answer

If you ever want to get a bunch of sci-fi, comic book and fantasy geeks talking, simply fill in the blanks: "[blank] vs. [blank], who would win in a fight?"

Machinima.com aims to try to answer at least some of these questions, and the latest is a heavy-hitting match between Darth Vader and Batman.

At first, you might think that Vader would make this a quick fight, considering that he has the Force on his side. But Batman always has a contingency plan for pretty much everything, so you can bet that a little space magic isn't going to stop him.

The video is nicely done with some impressive special effects for what was probably a relatively low-budget project. It's outrageous at points (Batman wielding a lightsaber is enough to make anyone chuckle) but that's all part of the fun.

Of course, we've seen Batman go up against Superman before in comics and movies ("The Dark Knight Returns" by Frank Miller showed just such a showdown), so if the Dark Knight can hold his own against Supes, then you'd think a Sith lord with breathing problems would be a snap.

We should see a similar showdown when "Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice" hits theaters, as Ben Affleck's Batman is likely to face off against Henry Cavill's Superman.
