5. Raiders of the Lost Ark – Indiana Jones Vs. Sword Guy

Along with the Monty Python scene, this battle ranks up there with the funniest. The cleverness of this sword fight (or lack thereof) gave Indiana Jones the rugged laziness that made his character huge. Legend has it that Indy was supposed to engage in a long battle with his whip while the swordsman slashed and fought. Nevertheless, I think this version was the funnier choice.

4. Rob Roy – Robert Roy MacGregor Vs. Archibald Cunningham

Rob Roy is a 1995 historical film about a Scottish man named Robert Roy who battled landowners. In this final duel of the movie, the two characters battle to the death in what amounts to be a very cool scene done without the assistance of special effects.

The actor and filmmaker James Franco has plans to film a real life knife fight between L.A. gangs for his next movie.

The news, which comes burning hot off the press from Star Pulse via the New York Post, doesn’t name the movie, but says it is a collaboration with Harmony Korine, the gritty filmmaker who produced the 1995 movie Kids and the 1997 movie Gummo (a movie about teen cat killers).

Apparently, the duo wants to go under cover and film unsuspecting gang members in the act of stabbing each other, leading some associated with the film to worry about safety.

The production team is panicked that they’ll end up with blood, injuries and potentially dead bodies on set, said an anonymous source.
