About

The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny is a flash animation music video written by Neil Cicierega and animated by Shawn Vulliez. The song features many references to real celebrities and fictional characters competing in a large brawl to the death, in which Fred Rogers from the children’s television show Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood emerges as the victor at the end.

Origin

On December 22nd, 2005, Cicierega[11] (a.k.a. Lemon Demon) and Vulliez[10] (a.k.a. altffour) submitted an animation titled "The Ultimate Showdown"[1] to the flash website Newgrounds. As of May 3rd, 2012, the original Newgrounds submission has received over 12,400,000 views and a rating of 4.35 stars.


Old Godzilla was hoppin' around,
Tokyo City like a big playground,
When suddenly Batman burst from the shade,
And hit Godzilla with a bat grenade,
Godzilla got pissed and began to attack,
But didn't expect to be blocked by Shaq,
Who proceeded to open up a can of Shaq Fu,
When Aaron Carter came out of the blue,
And he started beating up Shaquille O'Neal,
Then they both got flattened by the Batmobile,
But before he could make it back to the Batcave,
Abraham Lincoln popped out of his grave,
And took an AK-47out from under his hat,
And blew Batman away with a rat-a-tat-tat,
But he ran out of bullets and he ran away,
Because Optimus Prime came to save the day!

This is the ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny!
Good guys, bad guys and explosions,
As far as the eye can see,
And only one will survive,
I wonder who it will be.
This is the ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny.

Godzilla took a bite out of Optimus Prime,
Like Scruff McGruff took a bite out of crime,
Then Shaq came back covered in a tire track,
But Jackie Chan jumped out and landed on his back,
And Batman was injured and trying to get steady,
When Abraham Lincoln came back with a machete,
But suddenly something caught his leg and he tripped,
Indiana Jones took him out with his whip,
Then he saw Godzilla sneaking up from behind,
And he reached for his gun which he just couldn't find,
Because Batman stole it, and he shot and he missed,
And Jackie Chan deflected it with his fist,
Then he jumped in the air and he did a somersault,
While Abraham Lincoln tried to polevault,
Onto Optimus Prime, but they collided in the air,
Then they both got hit by a Care Bear Stare,

This is the ultimate showdown, of ultimate destiny!
Good guys, bad guys and explosions,
As far as the eye can see,
and only one will survive,
I wonder who it will be,
This is the ultimate showdown.

Angels sang out,
in immaculate chorus,
Down from the heavens,
Descended Chuck Norris,
Who delivered a kick,
Which could shatter bones,
Into the crotch,
Of Indiana Jones,
Who fell over on the ground,
Writhing in pain,
As Batman changed back,
Into Bruce Wayne,
But Chuck saw through,
His clever disguise,
And he crushed Batman's head,
In between his thighs.

Then Gandalf the Gray,
And Gandalf the White,
The Monty Python and the Holy Grail's Black Knight,
And Benito Mussolini,
And the Blue Meanie,
And Cowboy Curtis,
And Jambi the Genie,
Robocop,
The Terminator,
Captain Kirk,
And Darth Vader,
Lo Pan,
Superman,
Every single Power Ranger,
Bill S. Preston,
And Theodore Logan,
Spock,
The Rock,
Doc Ock,
And Hulk Hogan.
All came out of nowhere lightning fast,
And they kicked Chuck Norris in his cowboy ass,
It was the bloodiest battle that the world ever saw,
With civilians looking on in total awe,
The fight raged on for a century,
Many lives were claimed but eventually,
The champion stood,
The rest saw the better,
Mr. Rogers in a blood stained sweater,

This is the ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny!
Good guys, bad guys and explosions,
As far as the eye can see,
And only one will survive,
I wonder who it will be,
This is the ultimate showdown!
(this is the ultimate showdown)
This is the ultimate showdown!
(this is the ultimate showdown)
This is the ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny!
