Round 1 Match 40
 |  |  |
Napoleon: A new watershed of catch-phrases and pop-culture-speak was unleashed when this movie became popular. Mr. Dynamite has mad skills on the dance floor, is loyal to his friends. and can draw a Liger. All very cool.
Yoda: Sure he looks like Kermit the Frog and Ernest Borgnine's love child. Sure he speaks in a convoluted grammar that only Jean Chrétien could follow. But his wisdom and recognizable image make him undeniably cool. And, he totally kicked tail in the prequels.
Criteria: Grandma leaves Napoleon and Kip alone again. Uncle Rico is unavailable, so she calls the "Dagobah Housesitting Service" Yoda shows up like Mary Poppins. "Eat all the steak, I did not, my young padawan. Feed the alpaca, you now must."

Having never seen either movie, I am at a slight disadvantage. My seasonal staff revere Mr. Dynamite as a demi-god. But after first seeing Ernest in McHale's Navy and then again on Airwolf, I have often wished that I could father his love child.
And Frank Oz really is a genius. They really shouldn't have CGI'd Yoda in the prequels. It was a travesty!! I guess maybe I did see the movies...
Yoda for the win

Okay so I am out of reality shows that I feel I can work with. And game shows are fairly close, so I have decided to pick my winners from "Are you smarter than a 5th grader"
Well this would be tough. Although I have never seen the Dynamite movies, this boy-man looks intelligent and a lot closer to 5th grade then the aging Yoda. Yoda was initally worried about the English Grammar questions. However, he was asked to give an example of a noun to which he replied "Ahhh... Questions difficult it is". They deemed this acceptable and he on to win the million he did.

Trust me - Napoleon is likely not smarter than the 5th graders - unless it is a drawing contest, then his Liger would blow away the competition. Especially if he spends a little extra time on the eyes.
Yoda is the bigger icon in this clash. He gets my vote.

Ernest in McHale's Navy? Father his love child?! I have no idea what that means.
Napolean is the under dog here but in world of icons...he is only that, an under dog; while Yoda represents the ultimate teacher. And his ass-backwards way of speaking is just endless fun if you want to annoy co-workers...although I suppose Napolean had his way of speaking, too, which I guess is how they ended up as bed-fellows (no, I'm not suggesting either would do THAT).
Winner not Napolean is.
