welcome aboard norwegian bliss cruiseship to alaska!



this ship is 30 stories tall, has a racetrack, waterslide, lazer tags, casino, discothèques, dozens of bars and restaurants, all the better to enjoy alaska!



Hannibal is taking a vacation to Alaska. He's looking for some very fresh crab to pair with some poor bastard's kidney.

Walker: Texas Ranger is on his retirement dream vacation.

at sunset they both receive a note saying they have to kill the other one.

who lives? who dies? you decide!

we aren't allowed guys with super powers, but hannibal might as well have them. even when he is an old man he will kill a young athlete, and all he needs is a paperclip, even if hannibal is completely strapped down

walker texas ranger is just prey to hannibal. not only will hannibal kill him, he will eat him, and possibly serve him up to some friends too

Hannibal is an interesting choice. You can't go up against Walker with martial arts or firepower, so he went with an intellectual powerhouse instead. Hannibal's powers would work well against Jack Bauer, a hot head who could allow Lecter to get in his head. But Walker is cool, calm and collected and wouldn't take Hannibal's **** nor would he give him 24 hours, or even 24 seconds, to work his magic. Walker would roundhouse Hannibal before he could put his chianti glass back on the table.

Hannibal gets some kills in his show, as a serial killer is wont to do, but they aren't super strong people or foes he is killing. He just has no chance against Walker, Texas Ranger, a former marine and martial arts expert of the highest level. Hannibal is too narcissistic to recognize Walker's skills before it's too late. Walker is an expert tracker and will find Hannibal and dispose of him. Hannibal is a serial killer, so while being much smarter than any other killer, Walker is well experienced in killing criminals like Lecter. I know we all remember that one scene in the movies, which was brilliant and he's one of the 3 best movie villains of all time, but that was two clueless security guards who thought he was locked up tightly, not Chuck ****ing Norris who knows he's on the loose and trying to kill him. Also, that was movie Hannibal, not TV Hannibal.

If Lecter had more time and space to plan something out, he may be able to use his intelligence and the advantage of surprise to have a chance, but on this cruise ship, with Walker knowing it's him or a criminal, he doesn't really have any realistic shot here. Justice, old west style, mixed with elite martial arts.

If Chuck Norris doesn't win the whole thing it's because he didn't want to.

Hannibal can't eat him if he doesn't kill him

and Chuck Norris is invincible

Hannibal would have no shot in a real battle between them; especially with this setup where he doesn't have time to plan nor the element of surprise

it's also tv Hannibal, not Silence of the Lambs' Hannibal

Walker is Chuck Norris at a level humans can actually comprehend.

So, all your arguments about Chuck Norris are noise & not really relevant to who wins this battle, and any future battles Walker may be in? Got it

Well my writeup only mentioned Norris once to keep it in that spirit...I kept it to Walker even tho everyone knows Walker is really just Chuck


Walker is as good at martial arts, tracking and fighting as you can humanly be without being Chuck Norris

He’s taking any of these people on the ship in an MMA death match.

It's a cruise ship and Walker already knows he's coming. Walker hunts people like Hannibal, for more seasons and episodes!

Walker has other skills than MMA; I'm just saying he's super elite at fighting

walker "hunts" people to kick them a few times and put them in jail.

hannibal HUNTS people to kill them and eat them

I think the issue here is that many people aren't familiar with Walker, Texas Ranger (and most are thinking of movie Hannibal, not TV show one)

To sum up who Walker is: A group of writers said "what if Chuck Norris was a real person?" and then they wrote Walker, Texas Ranger to show what a real Chuck Norris would be like. And then they gave him elite tracking skills to boot.


Meanwhile, Filthy is making obviously facetious arguments like "Walker would have chance in MMA vs Hannibal"...nobody would give Hannibal a chance at even landing a punch on Walker in an MMA fight, so that was a disingenuous statement.


Like I said before, Hannibal was a good choice and given enough time and space for planning and no advanced notice to Walker for the element of surprise, then Hannibal would have had a small chance. But in this scenario laid out, there is no way Hannibal kills Cordell Walker.

If kill count is so important to you, then here is a video with 182 on-screen kills by Walker, Texas Ranger. You'll notice most are one-shot kills; he doesn't miss.




stop spreading Fake News, Filthy

Walker is a stone cold killer of bad guys, and Hannibal is definitely a bad guy

Hannibal really only killed ladeda people he met at the opera or really broken people who were his psych clients, right? Did he ever really go up against a worthy opponent? I don't think so. He's witty and clever and has a refined palate, but he's no tough guy.

TV Hannibal would actually have a better chance in a 1-on-1 vs Walker than movie Hannibal, but he would still lose. But if he can find a way to make him ingest some of that drug he has that makes people eat their own face off, now we've got a match!

I'm leaning Hannibal because:

- Walker doesn't have a gun
- Walker takes down fairly standard foe normally right? (I haven't seen the show so not sure)
- I think Hannibal is more vicious, ruthless and used to working with limited resources in restricted situations
- Hannibal will smell him coming and be 3 steps ahead

I'm open to having my mind changed but it'll have to be convincing

Hannibal mostly relies on manipulation and careful planning to make his kills, so the more time he has, the better his chances are. But on the show at least, the couple of times that he was caught off-guard, he would've certainly died if not for plot armour kicking in. Maybe it's a similar story for Walker tho (only really seen a couple of sporadic episodes).

Walker is a martial arts expert and former marine; he doesn’t need a gun. He would win a weaponless fight against anybody on this ship easy.

Tho he could bring his gun as law enforcement

Watch the video

He also fights (kills) elite assassins in some episodes

And he’s an expert tracker as well, adaptive to any situation and is always 3 steps ahead of his foes (so will be same steps with Hannibal)

He’s basically a realistic version of Chuck Norris; a bad ass

Hannibal is super super smart and a sociopath

But that doesn’t mean he can realistically beat Walker, who kills sociopaths and baddies all the time.

He loses his space and time and planning and element of surprise in this setting.

If this actually happens there really is no way Hannibal ever beats Walker. But this is for fun so vote how you want.

It's Friday, so Walker must have killed a few more bad guys today.

His roundhouse kick sends big guys flying 10 feet...poor skinny Hannibal will go much further

Saturday night

Walker just locked up 2 more baddies and killed 3 others.


Hannibal is spending his time stalking a weak teenager.
