Thread: What weapon would you have chosen to save Marcellus?

Started 10 months, 1 week ago by hugh-mungas
Now if I was in Butch's position and had the choice of using; a) Hammer b) Baseball bat c) Chainsaw d) Samurai sword Which one would you have chosen?? I would have gone for the Baseball bat so I could hear that crunch when impacted to Spiders head. Sounds cruel? Well what would you do if someone was being raped?

Samurai Sword... It isn't every day when you can take a Samurai Sword and damn near gut a dude. WWBBD? (What Would Brian Boitano Do?)

I probably would have gone with the bat also. I'm not sure I could use a sword, but I know I can swing a bat. As for Butch's choice... he made the right one. It was a great scene.

I would have to go with the sword. I like the chainsaw but going down the srairs they would have heard it.

You people are sick. Please!! Somebody get me those fu**ing golfshoes!!!

either the sword or bat would be good but i think the sword was the best choice. if he had gone the bad he may have been able to knock out maynard efficiently, but without the blade at his neck zed may have gone for the gun and actually gotten to it before butch could kill him.

In close quarters the short chainsaw would have been best, but I doubt it had gas in it while sitting on a pawnshop shelf. No melee weapon is more terrifying than a chainsaw. In that instance I probably would have gone with the baseball bat. Most katana you'd find in a pawnshop would probably break in half in combat.

Well a chainsaw is not designed to cut through flesh and clothes. Most chainsaws would actually get jammed if you try and cut through clothes (however, I would leave one or several nasty looking wounds depending on how well it works). But its just not reliable enough. For sheer coolness I would pick the katana since I am a huge fan of samurai movies :P. But I guess I would feel less akward with a...

"I probably would have gone with the bat also. I'm not sure I could use a sword, but I know I can swing a bat." That's what I was thinking. Then I got to thinking further. What's the point of saving Marcellus anyway? I'd have stood there and watched him get boned! How often do you get to see that ?

I probably would have picked the bat. In reality, the odds of an old pawn shop katana blade being sharp enough to slice through a guy so easily are pretty slim.

I would have just left Marcellus to fend for himself.

I probably would have gone with the baseball bat, too. The hammer is great if I knew I'd get the drop on them, but if they heard me coming, it would suck to try to fight with. The chainsaw is loud and they would have heard it coming, which is not good when Spider is holding a shotgun. The Samurai sword is the scariest option, but I think I would be too unsure of myself with one. The baseball bat is familiar to use, and with just one good...

With a bat if both guys rushed you they'd have no problem grabbing it and maybe you'd be able to break someones arm at best. No one's going to rush you if you've got a sword.

"Have you ever been in a situation like this?" Yes, I have. Why just last week, my brother was getting raped by this big Asian dude . . . I asked the doctor to take your picture so I can look at you from inside as well.
