Hypotheticals - Movie Characters
Get ready to enter the ultimate debate stage with Hypotheticals – Movie Characters! Each round pits two iconic movie characters against each other in a ridiculous, over-the-top scenario—like “Who would win a bake-off: Darth Vader or Shrek?” or “Who’d survive longer in a zombie apocalypse: Elsa or Indiana Jones?” The crowd doesn’t get to sit this one out! One person is brought up to argue for each character, then the entire room casts their vote by physically moving to the left or right side of the room to show where they stand. It’s funny, it’s fiery, and it’ll have your group passionately defending their favorites in the most absurd situations.
How to Play:
Bring one student from each team on stage to represent each of the two characters shown on screen. Read the hypothetical scenario out loud, then give each student 20–30 seconds to argue why their character would win. Once both sides have argued, the rest of the group votes with their feet—everyone moves to the side of the room that matches the character they think would win. Keep score for each round or just play for fun and laughs!
