Title: Pre-1980 favorites?
Post by: Anon on December 05, 2018, 03:12:53 AM
What the title says. Got any favorite retro celebrities you'd want to see in action? Got any you think would be particularly strong or weak? Post em!

Some of my favorites:
(https://i.imgur.com/y63Kzyf.jpg)(https://i.imgur.com/fU6xeq3.jpg)
Jane Russell, who I don't think requires any explanation.

Caroline Munro, who is more obscure, as a Bond girl who was also in a ton of low budget flicks. I can see her knocking out a jobber or two.

(https://i.imgur.com/RAVpdjUl.jpg)
Raquel Welch is obvious because she manages to pull hair in so many of her roles.

Finally, here's Donna Summer, ready to stomp on somebody!

Could have posted more faves, and I might later. Who makes your list?

I'm into slim weak girls.

Audrey Hepburn
Diane Rigg
Stefanie Powers
Cheryl Ladd
Erin Gray

I would like to read stories with some larger big titted rival dominating and humiliating the weaklings.

Audrey Hepburn does seem at risk of being a total pushover.

(https://i.imgur.com/CaXM727.jpg)

Diana Rigg is a weird choice for a jobber to me because she's probably most well known as Action Spy Girl Heroine, though I suppose that means a lot of time spent tied up traditionally.

(https://i.imgur.com/nmDpUp3.png)

Stefanie Powers seems a little short on information but she does look nice.

(https://i.imgur.com/n1BjEQy.png)

Cheryl Ladd doesn't strike me as a total jobber (I feel like she could go at least 50/50 with Farrah Fawcett) but I wouldn't mind seeing someone squash her.

(https://i.imgur.com/WuNd1JN.jpg)

Erin Gray does seem like a fun pick to get blown away by a tougher fighter though!

Audrey is so a frail little thing. Skinny but lovely. I think the weakest of the world.

Diana was a supposed strong Spy. Athletic but thin. In my fantasy she is weak and overpowered by a bulky rival.

Stefanie lost some fights in The girl from Uncle  and also in Hart to Hart. She also was easy dominated in the movie Dye Dye my Darling. What a weakling!

Cheryl lost many femfights in Charlie's Angels. She was so weak and pathetic.

Erin was so beautiful. I always fantasize about Wilma Derring beaten and humiliated by some larger heavier stronger bad rival.

Waiting from some stories... I hope so.

I always liked Brigitte Bardot beaten up.

From later times I always loved Ornella Muti (dont know if she still counts as pre-80s). Would like to see her beaten, but I think this can only be done by some strong gal.
Title: Re: Pre-1980 favorites?
Post by: Anon on December 06, 2018, 10:37:36 PM
Well you've convinced me on all but Diana Rigg. Cheryl and Stefanie will never recover in my mind!

Brigitte Bardot is a great pick.

(https://i.imgur.com/8p6nY1W.jpg)

She had a fight in The Legend of Frenchie King against Claudia Cardinale, but it was a bit of a bust, as they do the standard movie thing where they take turns landing big moves on each other, then get broken up before anyone can actually win. Claudia, for comparison.

(https://i.imgur.com/wOS5gbV.jpg)

Ornella Muti should count I think since she was doing stuff before 1980. I suppose she's no pushover, but outside of her Flash Gordon space princess getup she doesn't look so tough.

(https://i.imgur.com/wa3V53x.jpg)

There are more than a few famous women of the time who could handle that!

Sorry. That was after the onesided fight.

All good options!

Lee Meriwether might be most famous for her TV roles, but she was Miss America 1955.

I think Cher is underrated as a potential ass kicker. Raquel and Erin came up previously of course, though it's odd to mention Raquel without Martine Beswick given their cavegirl match, so glad she made an appearance. Dawn Wells strikes me as a bit of a jobber, and I remember someone telling me they considered Loni Anderson the biggest jobber of her day (which has stuck with me, though I think we could find a bigger one). Catherine Bach seems like a nice solid action girl who could hold her own against others of her type without looking too silly.

I don’t know if anyone has mentioned Raquel Welch who had a few movie roles fighting other women.  In “One Million BC”, Raquel had a great fight with Martine Beswick, another favorite!  Martine was in the famous “Gypsy Fight” in the James Bond Classic, “From Russia With Love”.  In the Gypsy Fight, Martine was the taller of the two brunettes with the shorter one, Aliza Gur!  Great stuff!  Thanks for posting the question!!!
Title: Re: Pre-1980 favorites?
Post by: ETC (etcaaf) on February 13, 2019, 08:01:41 PM
So many great ladies!   I posted before but at least 10 others I can think of are:

Ursula Andress
Tina Louise
Julie Newmar
Sylva Koschina
Gina Lolobrigida
Sophia Loren
Jayne Mansfield
Mamie Van Doren
Sheree North
Ann-Margaret

That’s only 10 of the many classy, sexy ladies from that time.  Like I said, So many wonderful memories!

In “One Million BC”, Raquel had a great fight with Martine Beswick, another favorite!  Martine was in the famous “Gypsy Fight” in the James Bond Classic, “From Russia With Love”.

I think I posted Raquel pretty early. Martine Beswick also has a couple of fights in Prehistoric Women, yet another cavegirl movie.

(https://i.imgur.com/K7hddkY.png)

I don't have much to say about the list of ten, since most of them are either big enough names to be recognizable or got posted already. I had to look up Sylva Koschina though, good find there. Glad to see people appreciate Mamie Van Doren and the rest are pretty self explanatory good picks.

Post by: ETC (etcaaf) on February 15, 2019, 05:30:03 AM
 Camila Sparv and Scilla Gabel were European actresses from Europe around the same time as Elke Sommer, but not quite as well known.

Victoria Vetri (Angela Dorian) started in “When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth), very similar to One Million BC.  Like now, Hollywood was very formulaic.

Another one I can think of is Carol Wayne.  As I said before, so many beautiful ladies great memories!!  Thanks for posting this thread!
Title: Re: Pre-1980 favorites?

Elke Sommer is a good pick.

Nice to see Camilla Sparv mentioned; Tall, beautiful, athletic Scandinavian Blonde woman; one of the great missed catfight opportunities of all time was with her in "McKenna's Gold", against Julie Newmar, playing the role of an Apache woman; Julie is jealous of Camilla, thinking "McKenna" is interested in her, and continually tries to kill Camilla - they "sort of" have it out, at the end, where on horseback both women are jostling and elbowing each other in a frantic effort to escape the collapsing canyon, and Julie falls off her horse and dies - but a real, intense catfight between the two SHOULD have been featured, especially at the "waterhole" scene, where we DO get to see Julie Newmar swim naked - Naked Julie sneaks up under the swimming (clothed!) Camilla and tries to drown her, but McKenna breaks them up. What a shame!!!

Some magazine in the 1980s had a letter from someone who said they fantasized about a fight between Annette Funicello (from Disney and all the beach movies) and Donna Douglas (Ellie Mae from The Beverly Hillbillies). Well, that stuck in my head - two busty starlets, blonde and brunette, in a ferocious catfight. Yep, that worked for me then and still does today.

(Been a year, but there's no similar thread, it's my thread, and I'm posting new material)

I actually love the types of movies Sybil Danning is typecast for, but I've managed to skip nearly all of them somehow. So, not much to say on that subject.

Here's Dian Parkinson of the bikini squad from The Price is Right, called Barker's Beauties. In an ideal world they'd spend half their time pulling each other's hair and half of their time teaming up against the bikini squads from other shows.

For anyone still reading, is anyone interested in celebrity rps through discord? The ladies in this thread (not just Dian, but the 40s pin ups and everyone in between) are a lot of fun, and I think it'd be fun to do some scenes with them. If anybody's at all interested, feel free to leave your discord here, PM it to me, or just add me directly: A.#3123

Joanna Lumley (overr ated)

As a catfighter, or an actress? What do you mean?
Title: Re: Pre-1980 favorites?
Post by: saharrison on October 04, 2020, 08:34:05 PM
As a catfighter as her reputation is based on one very brief fight in the New Avengers and then having the outfits.  Still like to see her fight but expectations tempered

Ah I see. I only know her from Absolutely Fabulous (and then only barely). But yeah would be nice to see Joanna in action against some of the others here.

I'm also a fan of Debby Harry (not sure how well she'd do though) and Ursula Andress. Claudia Cardinale came up earlier in the thread, I think. I had to look up Barbara Bach to remember who she was, and she seems like a lot of fun as a catfighter, though a little bit delicate to win many matches.

I don't think anyone has mentioned Caroline Munro but she fought and lost to Joanna Lumley on that Avengers episode. And she was just jaw-dropping gorgeous.

I did on the first page but it was literally years ago. Yeah, I guess I can see how someone would call Joanna "overrated" if allowed a win vs Caroline here.

I usually like to keep the contestants in a league of their own era, but I like these.

Gotta be Sybil Danning!

Picture from an episode of The Fall Guy where Sybil almost (frustratingly so) gets into a catfight with Heather Thomas.

Heather engages in 2 catfights in this episode but neither with Sybil

https://youtu.be/jOfketk6Qxk

Tracy Scoggins was also in a Fall Guy episode, but didn't catfight Heather.

For all the fights the guys had on Fall Guy, Heather Thomas didn't really mix it up much. Would have been great is she had. Loved her and thought she was one of, if not the, sexiest woman on tv back in her time.

Sadly, one can say the same about every t.v. series, ''Dukes of Hazzard'' and, at the top of the list, the original ''Star Trek'' series... sigh, if Uhura, Chapel, or Rand had gotten into only half as many fights as Kirk had...

And as I recall she seemed pretty athletic, so I'm sure she would have came out on top more times than not.

She has already been mentioned but I put Audrey Hepburn. Probably the weakest celebrity ever

(https://www.filmfad.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Audrey-Hepburn.jpg.webp)

Not an actress but a famous model. I've always wanted to see Twiggy fight

Edwige Fenech sex symbol actress in Italy in the 70s and 80s

I agree. In movies it was a good gimmick and worked well for her, of course.

Twiggy

I know of her but for some reason I thought she was about a foot taller than that!

Edwige Fenech

This one I had to look up. She seems pretty delicate too but probably less so than the others. Guess you're a fan of that, though?

I really like movies from the 70s and 80s. Edwige Fenech made many films in Italy in those years, always taking advantage of her sexy body. I would like to see her fight as she destroys a leaner and weaker opponent but also in a balanced and uncertain match to the end.

Here's Dian Parkinson of the bikini squad from The Price is Right, called Barker's Beauties. In an ideal world they'd spend half their time pulling each other's hair and half of their time teaming up against the bikini squads from other shows.

Dianne was one of my favorites. Loved it when she posed for Playboy.

Used to think about her wrestling Pam Grier and Pam dominating her.

What the title says. Got any favorite retro celebrities you'd want to see in action? Got any you think would be particularly strong or weak? Post em!

Some of my favorites:
(https://i.imgur.com/y63Kzyf.jpg)(https://i.imgur.com/fU6xeq3.jpg)
Jane Russell, who I don't think requires any explanation.

(https://i.imgur.com/jXV3aHjl.jpg)
(https://i.imgur.com/l8PBSxNh.jpg)
Caroline Munro, who is more obscure, as a Bond girl who was also in a ton of low budget flicks. I can see her knocking out a jobber or two.

(https://i.imgur.com/RAVpdjUl.jpg)
Raquel Welch is obvious because she manages to pull hair in so many of her roles.

Finally, here's Donna Summer, ready to stomp on somebody!

Could have posted more faves, and I might later. Who makes your list?

Pam Grier against Adrienne Barbeau. Used to think about this one a lot. Adrienne would definitely get the worst of it. I think Pam would rip that corset right off of her and go to work on those breasts.

Yeah, speaks well of Pam, since I don't think Adrienne is a pushover.

I am a massive Heather Thomas fan and loved to see her rocking those tight jeans. Her best catfight episodes in The Fall Guy were in Reel Trouble and the aforementioned Prisoner

Her fist fight with Ashley Ferrare in the movie Cyclone is obviously another favourite but she also had a beach catfight with her on screen sister in a very bad Australian mini series Flair

And i periodically bring this up in the hope someone will find it. I am sure her character Joanne in the late 70s show California Fever, episode Beach Wars, engaged in a catfight. A couple of episodes have turned up on YouTube so i was hopeful it might arrive but still no joy

My fantasy, for many years, was to see a cross over Fall Guy/Dukes of Hazzard episode where Daisy and Jody engaged in a rip roaring catfight in The Boars Nest lol

First time posting in this section, as an artist I normally stick to the art section but lately I've been on a celebrity kick and decided to have a look and also to share,, would like to do a series of some of the female TV icons I grew up with, lucky I got to enjoy the tail end of shows like I love Lucy and Happy days, anyone have a suggestion as to who would make a good opponent for Lucille Ball other than her neighbor. hmm there were also the actresses from Laverne and Shirley not to mention the girls from threes company anyway here some I've done

Those are fantastic. Since Lucille Ball was doing big successful comedy movies in the 30s and 40s I'd put forward Ginger Rogers, Claudette Colbert, and Carole Lombard as options, rather than trying to find a 50s sitcom rival.
