Ultimate Baddasses

    Having finally gotten to see Avatar yesterday I was pretty impressed at the sheer badassery of Stephen Lang who played Colonel Quaritch and was reminded of how much i love a good badass. So who are cinema's ultimate baddasses, i'll get the ball rolling.

    Michael Ironside(in anything)- The man is just bad to the bone, a badass in every sense of the word, it takes balls even to look at his picture.

    Clint Eastwood(Bill Munny, Unforgiven)- "All right, I'm coming out. Any man I see out there, I'm gonna shoot him. Any sumbitch takes a shot at me, I'm not only gonna kill him, but I'm gonna kill his wife, all his friends, and burn his damn house down. "
    william_munny_3227.jpg

    Samuel L. Jackson(Jules, Pulp Fiction)- "Oh i'm sorry, did i break your concentration?"
    PulpVincentJules1.jpg

    Liam Neeson(Bryan Mills, Taken) Nobody fucks with the big man, especially if you're an Albanian people trafficker living in Paris.

    Could do with a few labels there on a few of those posts, some people might not have seen them all!

    I have to agree with Samuel L. Jackson in Pulp Fiction, brilliant!

    Kirk Douglas, pretty badass, Particularly as Spartacus...

    Its hard to look past Liam Neeson for badassness in taken.

    I'd also mention Daniel Craig in Casino royale.

    Brilliant, great site similar to Maddox's greatest page in the universe, which is of course badass in itself.

    More badasses, Robert Patrick(T 1000)- Never before has an unhealthy obsession with a young boy ever been so badass!

    Liam Neeson in Taken is nothing but a poor mans Denzel Washington in Man on Fire.

    Clint Eastwood in nearly everything, you could strike a match off this man he's so rugged and badass! I mean, look at this poster, nobody else could pull this look off without a stone-cracking, thousand-mile stare like Clint.

    Ironside is probably my top badass

    Weaving is excellent as Smith, so utterly focused on what he wants to do.
