NS: Nightwing Versus Winter Soldier

[lucean]

Bat in the Sun released their newest Super Power Beat Down episode which pits Nightwing against Winter Soldier. The winner is based on a vote and the fights are always really well choreographed and acted by people really looking like who they are supposed to be. I highly recommend watching it although warn that the fight is really bruta. On the brighter side, the winner does it in an insanely badass way and the video has one of the best dick pic jokes I've ever heard.

Did I not say that Nightwing was incredibly badass there. Two larger points that the fight made think about.

First, something that amused is the amount of comments that criticed the ending in that Nightwing only won because of Batman. Which is somewhat amusing, because yeah, he won because he was trained by the ultimate badass of the DCU and became an almost as a big of a badass on his own. The complaints are even more amusing when you realize Winter Soldier is on the level he is because he needs to match Captain America.

Second, after watching that I again was puzzled that there is no real efforts for a live action Nightwing as, even if the was only decent, would seem a license to print money. Especially if you look at their efforts on the TV series, the background of Nightwing makes him a natural choice. I know of the failed Teen Titans show, but why not make Nightwing a solo show? And I almost made a snide comment about Johns.

Brennan Mejia really does emote Nightwing's positivity and confidence too to be honest, a fusion of those three men would be godly.
