I'm loving these giant monster vs. giant monster fights. I'm glad you've been able to get some awesome battles to happen, averting any additional "Greatwood can't hit or be hit" scenarios. I feel another unexplored monster battle is Sif vs. the Sanctuary Guardian, and it'd have the fun of dog (wolf) vs. cat too. Lautrec's gank squad vs. Ornstein and Smough would be cool as well, and, similar to the Ringed City arrows video, I think it'd be neat to test NPCs against the Painting Guardian rafters of Anor Londo.
