Gandalf no contest, he is essentially a lessor angel who went toe to toe with a Balrog, won and then came back from the dead to lead the forces of Minas Tirith.

A better question is who would win if we had to sit thought that battle on a movie screen. And the answer is simple: whoever wins, we lose. Because we'd be forced to watch a character from one of the dullest franchises in the history of movie franchises. Seriously each episode following the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects, all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.

Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody, just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.

>a-at least the books were good though
"No!"
The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs."

I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. Rowling's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that she has no other style of writing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Harry Potter by the same Stephen King. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading Harry Potter at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Stephen King." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "Harry Potter" you are, in fact, trained to read Stephen King.

Dumbledore Wins. Its got nothing to do with the characters, just the different universal power levels.

Gndalf is a semi-god/god.

>Gndalf is a semi-god

who had his powers capped, and whose ring doesn't do anything but inspire other people to resist tyranny.

>>81994341
a god with his powers capped is still more powerful than a human wizard

gandalf can resurrected, can dunbledore do that?

>>81994318
Not an argument.

The only way Gandalf could win is if Dumbledore doesn't have his wand.

>>81994497
>can dunbledore do that?

No, and neither can gandalf without the direct intervention of God.

>>81994532
Gandalf is strongest phisically.

He could win easily in a fight without magic involved.

>>81994318
Thats not how the maiar work you fucking retard. The only one of them that doesn't die in the LOTR is Radagast.

Its all beside the point anyway. The magic in HP is just more powerful than the subtle magic used in LOTR. All dumbledore has to do is point his wand at someone and they die. Gandalf would not be able to even touch him because he'd just disapparate away.

>>81994814
>All dumbledore has to do is point his wand at someone and they die.
yeah sure

>>81993648
In their god mode and if they're not joking around and just straight up going for the kill then I don't see a problem here. The only person who could give them a bit of trouble is maybe Superman. But there's two of them. Each of these guys when they were much weaker could have destroyed a planet. Now they can destroy a sun with their power.

So if superman went a tenth the speed of light or faster, Goku would see it. As he is right now, Both him and Vegita could move as fast as light. And if he wanted he could tangle up with Superman, Literally teleport him into deep space and run circles around him until his reserves ran out. For that to happen he'd have to use some high level attacks. Or he could simply teleport him to another galaxy and leave him there.

That is probably how the fight would go. He could ward off anything Albus could dish out then melee him with Glamdring.

>>81993648
Never understood those fighters. How good are they? What's their powerlevel? Aren't they just good fighters? One Punch Man costume looks like the guy on the right

>>81997415
Which fighters?

>able to -instantly- move from one location to another
>Incredible speed, reflexes and strength
>Power of flight
>Incredible durability

I'm not even listing it all properly or in a way that would please a "true" fan. But that's the gist of it.

DBZ powerlevels are nothing compared to a ton of animu.

It was probably some Mexican who did this.

Japan don't even care about DB anymore.

>>81996278
Not gonna bother to check if they're in that picture for ants, but plenty of Marvel characters like Galactus, Silver Surfer and Mephisto could solo them. Even Prof X could just mind rape them.

>>81997890
More likely a spic, they love DBZ and powerlevel wanking.
