Death Battle Fight Prediction: The Thing (The Thing) vs The Blob (The Blob)

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I still got one more fight prediction blog planned coming on Halloween. A friend of mine recently ended his own versus blog series. Which had a few polls that sadly no longer going to happen. But I did previously discussed one of his poll winning matches. I felt for those that wanted The Thing vs The Blob, I may be a little more into horror to do this one better.

This is one of those huge horror movie debates that's all over the internet. A rather unique match up with unusual alien creatures while original versions anyway. The Blob in the remake got changed to being an weapon from the government. Regardless my view on which creature wins remains exactly the same. I actually prefer this over Myers vs Voorhees for many reasons.

Verdict

The Blob

Both these creatures force bonding with their victims on a cellular level. The Thing is an shape shifting alien while The Blob more of an instinctive creature. This by itself determines which one wins. The Blob can't be harmed with only one notable weakness. Extreme cold prevents it devouring others or the creature can be frozen to trap it.

In vice versa, you can kill The Thing many ways with using an flame thrower being the main kill method. Thus, The Thing has a fatal weakness to extreme heat. Obviously, The Blob can easily tank flame throwers as shown in the remake movie. Another critical advantage is in a weird sense. Both creatures could be flexible to crazy degrees.

The Thing is a shape shifter that can assume any form it wants. Yes it can be disguised as a dog. The Blob is more liquid based allowing the creature into tight spaces including a sink. The Blob only struggle to getting one person whose in a freezing room. Both of them loves to get dangerously close to their targets. The Thing can decide to fuse or not with another living being.

The Blob flat out devours anything alive among contact. This is scary because The Thing being a shape shifter going to kept getting smaller the longer this fight goes on. At the same time, The Blob will continue to grow bigger in size to constantly increase many advantages. The Blob will always have a longer reach that continues to extend further.

The Blob being able to hide in tight space isn't even a concept The Thing be prepare for. Not only that, The Thing lacks any means to protect itself from The Blob. Assuming this took place in Antarctica, The Blob would be trapped with limited places to go. Of course this could suddenly become a desperate waiting game.

Eventually The Thing going to be in a location The Blob can attempt to devour it again. If this took place in a town like in The Blob series. I still felt The Blob still wins. It's debatable if The Blob being very small or notably bigger when these two creatures face each other. Even being small, this creature can quickly devour it's victims.

Also The Thing would struggle shape shifting out of getting full devoured as well. Which means it may lose more mass than expected. The Blob constantly after people to devour. The Thing does have more notable limits. The Blob could easily wore down The Thing in a prolonged fight. The Thing more or less forced into close range combat.

Which is suicide against The Blob. The Thing can't out absorb The Blob either. Usually having the numbers is a good thing in versus fights. Not here, the more creatures in the location. The worst thing going to become for The Thing. The Blob is a surprisingly ridiculous horror movie monster. The Thing is so limited in it's options, it's easy to say this isn't much of a fight.

I also could say this may not start as a stomp. It could possibly end as one depending on the situations. Even the superior intelligence of The Thing isn't going to get far. Scientists in remake version couldn't even handle The Blob. Inevitably The Thing is going to be serve as a few course meal to The Blob. Location wise it doesn't affect things that much either, The Blob simply wins this fight.

Winner: The Blob (The Blob)

I'm not done yet, I personally wanna thank my friend Simoun O'Brien. I helped him in a few blogs within his versus series. I felt like returning the favor, I did previously asked to assist in that canned blog. Therefore, I had the right to finish what he started with this fight. Honestly, this has the potential to be a terrifying fight to watch in so many ways.

Partly it could play on paranoia. Like who or what actually The Thing. Also when The Blob going to finish devouring The Thig. Some possible situations that could get reactions out of people. The animation in 3D could be truly sick. I strongly felt this is a fun versus debate. I just wish it had a little more than this, still more than Jack Frost vs Gingerdead Man lol.
