Talk:Upcoming ERB suggestions/@comment-5393732-20120901233354/@comment-24094060-20120902180509

I was thinking about doing a list similar to this. I'll just put it above.

Mark Twain vs Poe sounds ok, but I was thinking, Mark Twain vs Stephen King. But I'm more enthusiastic about other suggestions, so you can do what you want with it. (There already is a Lemony Snicket vs Edgar Allen Poe one on the list, for author who writes horror stories, though now that I think about it, it could be either one vs RL Stine, but maybe not)

Important note: On the topic of authors, they need to be known for being writers, not just making a few series and getting profit from it. As in, the characters in the stories are really more famous than the authors themselves. (Like JK Rowling, JRR Tolkien, Stephenie Meyer, CS Lewis, and Rick Riordan) They need to be Poe, Twain, King, maybe Snicket. For example, Dr. Seuss was known for his children's books, and he is as famous as his characters, which is why all of them were used. (Also, he didn't normally talk, so characters rapping for him was legit)

Then, for the other people used, here are ones who could actually be in one:

Flo the Progressive Girl, Weird Al (putting him in a battle sounds interesting, but the matchup is difficult), Gene Simmons (I know there's a Big Time Rush vs KISS idea for quadruplet bands, though just Gene Simmons could still be awesome, like how they did just John Lennon instead of all the Beatles) To me, FRED is weird, dumb, and uninteresting, but he somehow looks like he could be in ERB (or not) but Annoying Orange vs Fred = no. And last, the first thing that popped to my head when I saw Mad Hatter was Willy Wonka (I'll just put it on the list) And I don't know anyone Paint or Goldentusk can play as.

These I have no idea who they are/don't seem too suitable for it:

Che Guevara, Shaun (Shaun of the Dead), Rene Descartes, Tracy Turnblad (Hairspray), Alex DeLarge (Clockwork Orange), Bob Ross (I think that's enough soft spoken PBS show hosts for now), Marydoodles (she is only known by ERB fans and those who see her awesome artwork), Van Gogh (idk, I mean, maybe), and Gorbachev.

Also, there hasn't been a professional basketball/baseball/football player yet. We should add some.
