Epic Rap Battle of the Walking Dead
Damn it. I aussume it spoils a lot for people who haven`t seen the shows yet?

Not really. Mostly it makes inside jokes you would never get otherwise.
As someone who LOVES the latter show and is only vaguely familar with the former….
....I dunno, it was kinda underwhelming to me. Maybe too slow, I dunno. Peter had a nice, smooth delivery for Rock but Lloyd's voice.....just didn't click as Walter White for me. Maybe he was too bombastic?
Rick won, imo.
Hmm, not really feeling that one (probably because I don't watch either shows that characters are from) but it was ok I guess.
That Carl…stay back always cracks me up.

All right, I`ll trust you and watch it then
I haven't seen either but it still made me laught just because I know enough about each show to appreciate the jokes.
Dito what Satsuki said I enjoyed itquite a bit. Maybe it is because I didn`t have high expectations, but yeah. Surprisingly enough, Peter does pretty well as a tough, badass Sheriff, lol.
I'm just waiting on baited breath for Weird Al.
I think goku owned this one.^^
dayum Goku finished things with a Christopher Reeves reference. also, Krillin cameo.
yeah, this was awesome.
Nah, I think the first verse won it for Kent. Ray's rap as Goku never really got much further than just slinging petty insults at Superman (and DC) while doing the Super Saiyan power-up scream, whereas Superman's lines had way more references to things outside of the strikingly obvious badass traits of the two. "I'm killing it, you're Krillin' it"? "You're primited and limited, and live in a village of idiots. Step in Metropolis, I'll snap a carrot period"? Yeah, way better than any of Goku's lines.
Which is a shame, really, because Ray's imaginative enough to come up with some really funny raps if he's just allowed to do that without a badly written script. I wish they'd let him do more of his own stuff, like that impromptu rap he did in the Behind the Scenes video.
Not bad, though, I quite liked this one. When I heard they were going to include Goku, I was a bit scared of how they'd pull that off, but apart from making him way more aggressive than he probably should be I think they got it down fairly well.
FINALLY! ! I was hoping those guys would do this!! I LOVE IT!! :D
Btw, $50 says that both Superman and Dbz fans will bitch at each other about the death battle from a year ago in the comments section. XD
Edit:
I will agree that the rap battle felt too short though. They could've at least made it 2 and a half minutes long at most.
Superman killed it.

Eh about the same really. They both had some good point: Supes really bringing nothing new to the table except redone origins and Goku series having tendacy to scream for really long time and draw out fight. Though I'm surprised Supes never brought up Goku's live action movie. LOL. Only complaint from me is that it felt way too short but otherwise enjoyable.
superman was better for the most part,but goku's final part was really good
Goku easily took that one, guys.
LMAO at the serious "analysis" of the lines. I'm on Goku's side too. Both of them were full of cheap shots. The Reeve reference was balanced out by the allusion to constipation. Good times.

Eh, I'm just waiting for someone to start blogging about the lines and writing proper poetry analyses of them all. It'd make for a fun read.
Well, it was better than the first one that's for sure. The first battle left little impression but this will be memorable for a long while.
This one was long overdue but I think supes won it

Maybe, if they got the humor aspect right while doing it. I don't approve of any form of actually taking this stuff seriously :P

Humor is always serious business. :P
My jaw dropped a little when they used the Christopher Reeve reference. Kind of "Oh no, they didn't. That's horrible!"

Christopher Reeves reference? What about the "dropping bombs on japan" line? What does that bring to mind? Even if you just think of the firebombings it's still horrible, but it's all in humor.
Awesome! Those two guys have so much history and things to adress at each other, I want a rematch. Felt way to short.
That was fun but I still want more historical figure battles.
Went into this one expecting to hate it, but it was one of my favorites in a long time.
I thought it was hilarious that Supes called the plot of DragonBall complicated.

I agree, I thought this was going to be really silly but I ended up really digging it. Gotta say though: Did they make Rays eyes blue on purpose. I thought super saiyan eyes were green.
Didn't enjoy this, but I was never going to like this cut anyway.
It didn't sound nice to me, Goku especially. He doesn't have to be Nozawa or anything, but it just doesn't feel fitting.
I'm just amazed that I found Ray Wiliam Johnson entertaining for once.
Poe vs King
King wins, just because he unwillingly referenced Jojo when talking about Cujo and The Stand.
Oooh hot beat, I love it.
Mmm man this one hard to decide. They both got some good hits in and some rapid spitting flows to boot. Though I do suppose I'd have to give it to King if only cause he notched out some better burns. Still a good battle, going into one of my favorites of the series.
I'm normally a big sucker for Watsky, but damn the guy who played Stephen King was good.
I loved this battle, easily goes into my top 5 favorites. Im a big fan of both Poe
s and King`s work, so this is like a dream come true, lol. Gotta go with King on this one though.
One of the many battles that I have been hoping to happen for a while and they finally did it…...and it was freaking AWESOME!!
Dear lord this was insanely good. When they get back to form (wordplay everywhere; last time they did that was Al Capone/Blackbeard) they really kill.
I thought the beat was eh, but man did it get more intense during the second verses. Hmm…..tough on who to give it to.
That was pretty solid, compared to the relatively weak season so far. King won that one because of his last line and better verses. I did like how both of them used titles of their works in their verses, it was a nice touch.
But, another line about dicks. I don't listen to rap but do they do this often? Seriously? You don't have any better ideas for lines so you basically talk about how big your dick is or insult the other guy's? I'm afraid if these guys do another ERB that has an Asian or Asian created character, that's always going to show up, like it did for Goku/Superman or Bruce Lee/Clint Eastwood. I respect the ERB guys but verses about dick sizes and shit is really uncreative, it's like reverting to insulting people's mothers or something. Rant over.
The verses and beat were weak, until Neil came in. Newton's second verse was pretty good but Neil destroyed him.
It's weird al! loved the beat on that one
I dunno, I wasn't feeling the Bill Nye impression, but Weird Al as Newton was great!
Neil coming in was unexpected but not unwelcome.
i hope weird al is brought back for more of these
Bill Nye's verse grew on me, and Isaac Newton's grew off.
But of course, Neil won. Overall really liked the beat too
I immediately fell for the beat and it just grew on me more throughout. The verses for Bill were a little weak but they might have done that on purpose for Neil to come in and "save him". Al did a great job as Isaac. Overall, great battle.
