A new thread on r/whowouldwin has blown up over what weak AF character could survive an attack from The Ring's demonic villain Sadako/Samara.

"To be more specific: Who's the weakest character who could watch the tape from The Ring and survive being attacked by Sadako/Samara seven days later? They get prep after watching the tape and they don't have to kill her, just survive her attacks," the thread asks.

People have come up with some of the most outlandish characters, but give you explanations that actually start to make it all make sense… I mean, The Ghostbusters?! They're just a group of regular 'ole New Yorkers who just happen to know some things about paranormal science (lol wow, that's an oxymoron if I've ever seen one…) and have some gadgets. They might not be able to defeat Samara, but they could probably keep her locked away in their strange ghost uploaded tank thing. And what about Courage from Courage the Cowardly Dog?! He's just a sweet little rescue pup who lives in the middle of nowhere with his senior humans, but freaky stuff always happens to him there and he always comes out on top. Heck, someone even runs down why the gang from Always Sunny in Philadelphia could defeat Samara… For a movie that used to scare the sh*t out of me when I was younger, she's started to sound pretty easily defeat-able…
