Good vs. Evil can come in many sizes. One such form is through multiple good guys squaring off against multiple bad guys. Sometimes it can be two against two. Other times, you can have a small group of heroes fighting a larger band of villains. There is also many examples of fight scenes in which both sides have the same large number of people who are going at each other. Here are ten interesting and diverse cinematic fight scenes involving groups of people.
10. The cast of Blazing Saddles vs. each other and the song and dance men from The French Mistake (Blazing Saddles)
Even comic battle scenes can be creative! I know people who did not like that the finale to the Mel Brooks classic resorted to this fight scene that breaks the fourth wall. But I like it because it is silly in a very funny manner!

9. Four hobbits, two humans, a wizard, an elf and a dwarf vs. orcs and a cave troll (The Lord of the Rings: the Fellowship of the Ring) NOTE: Comes in two videos
A diverse group of Middle Earth inhabitants take on an entourage of ugly orcs. Piece of cake, right? Not really, especially when a giant cave troll is involved.

, 8. The Iron Legion vs. the extremis soldiers (Iron Man 3)
I love this showdown involving Iron Man's Iron Legion! Pepper and War Machine also get involved in trying to stop the extremis soldiers. Marvel Comic film adaptations have some of the best group battles ever, and this is certainly one of them!!!

7. Humans turned into furniture vs. humans (Beauty and the Beast)
This is one of my favorite scenes in Disney history!!! I never thought I'd see the day when grown men would be getting the crap beaten out of them by humans that have been transformed into inanimate objects! It shows that humans can be successful in driving away invaders, even when they are under a spell.

6. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles vs. the Foot (1990 version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles)
Now we have another unique type of group fight. This time we have humans getting beaten upon by mutated turtles who excel at ninja fighting. They can even fight while skateboarding or while exchanging smart ass remarks with one another!!!

5. Action stars vs. henchmen (The Expendables 2)
They are not masterpieces, but I love the movie series with a Who's Who of action stars!!! The second installment features one of the most entertaining fight/shootout scenes of them all!!! I am also giving extra points to the moment in which Schwarzenegger and Willis steal catchphrases from one another!!!

4. Ron Burgendy and friends vs. rival network cameos (Anchorman 2)
The gang fight in the first film was very good, but I feel this one tops it immensely! This is so funny because of how stupidly random it is!!! An entourage of cameo appearances seem to be having a fun time hamming it up!

3. Shrek and Donkey vs. knights (Shrek)
An ogre and an annoying donkey go World Wrestling Federation on a bunch of knights! This fight is proof that wearing armor does not always work in preventing you from getting injured! it also demonstrates what you can do with a keg a beer besides drinking from it!

2. Lee and Carter vs. thugs (Rush Hour)
Jackie Chan fight scenes are usually great mixtures of action and comedy, and this is certainly a nice example! The fastest hands from the East and the biggest mouth from the West end up getting the job done! Chan and Chris Tucker's chemistry make this one of the best cop/buddy movies of all time!

1. The rebels vs. the Dark Side (Return of the Jedi) NOTE: the battle itself ends at 31:50. The rest is the ending with new added footage. Just noting this in case you only want to view the battle.
Our list concludes with the big battle that concluded the Star Wars saga... which will be continued this upcoming December! This battle has Jedis, droids, ewoks, wookies and starfighters squaring off with the Dark Side on both land and in the air. I am hoping the upcoming installment contains battle scenes that are just as good as this!!!
