It could at least give you the right to rename it to "The Hammer of Excalibur". |

hm, probably not. but I think destroying the rock by swinging it against another, harder rock would make you worthy |

You gonna argue with someone weilding a giant stone and sword hammer? He's whatever he wants to be. |

The stone is but the tip of a buried house-size boulder, which you would be standing on, and therefore unable to lift no matter how strong. |

There was a 2 part TV movie called Merlin staring Sam Neil and in that retelling the stone was actually the hand of a rock giant who held the sword until Merlin told the giant to let go. |

What if you break the stone by pulling? |

I think it was castlevania that had a weapon that was Excalibur with the stone still attached and you could swing it like a regular weapon haha |

The sword in the stone was not Excalibur. Excalibur was given to Arthur by the Lady in the Lake after the sword in the stone was broken during a duel. |

I think I've seen a webcomic featuring a big dumb barbarian wielding a boulder on a sword like this. The sword was sentient and very frustrated by its predicament. It might have eventually warmed up to the barbarian or guided him through honorable deeds. |

Basically, could the hulk lift Thor while Thor is holding Mjulnor? |

Well, more like; if Mjolnir is inside box, would The Hulk be able to lift the box? If Mjolnir was on a spaceship, abd someone is flying the spaceship who isn't Thor... Does the spaceship move the hammer? Tony Stark in the MCU posited the question in relation to Vision; "If you place the hammer in an elevator, and the elevator goes up, does that mean the elevator is worthy?" It didn't receive an answer. |

Sounds like the kind of chenanigans a tabletop rpg party would come up. And then the dm lets out a deep sigh, starts going through his notes and decides all his prep work is out of the window (again) so now a random angry mob of high level ogres appears. |

You would wield the mace Excalibur. Honestly, an even more imposing weapon. |

That was a genuinely hilarious moment. Honestly, I love it when super heroes acknowledge that some of their shit makes absolutely no sense. |

Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of determining worthiness. |

If you're strong enough you don't need to be worthy |
