Just a few off the top of my head.
Hicks - Aliens Michael Corleone - The Godfather I & II Tony Montana - Scarface Riddick Vincent - Collateral and this isn't a movie, but Solid Snake needs to be mentioned. |
Riddick
Ripley-aliens the man with no name angel eyes tuco ghost dog |
The Wolf - Pulp Fiction!
|

Legolas from Lord of the Rings pwnz all with his bow and arrow.
Oh and Brad Pitt as Achilles in Troy. Just thought I'd mention these because no one else has mentioned them so far. (Oh and uh, sorry for using "pwnz.") |
"The Dude" - The Big Lebowski
|
The Bride-Kill Bill
|
I got a lot no one has mentioned.
Maximus - Gladiator Major Konig - Enemy at the Gates Animal Mother - Full Metal Jacket Sgt. Horvath - Saving Private Ryan Cpl. Steiner - The Iron Cross Tyler Durden - Fight Club Eldon Perry - Dark Blue "Hoot" - Blackhawk Down Lt. Col. Hal Moore - We Were Soldiers Mani - Brotherhood of the Wolf Big Chris - Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels Bullet Tooth Tony - Snatch Boris "The Blade" - Snatch "Bud" White - L.A. Confidential "Spoon" Witherspoon - Dog Soldiers And that's just from my small movie collection. Hollywood can make badass characters pretty easily, huh? Oh, I almost forgot, any Samuel Jackson character, ever. |
Ash - Army of Darkness
Vincent & Jools - Pulp Fiction Dirty Harry - Ah-ah, I know what you're thinking punk. You're thinking did he fire six shots or only five? And to tell you the truth I've forgotten myself in all this excitement. But being this is a .44 Magnum - the most powerful hand gun in the world and will blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself a question--Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya punk! |
John Wayne's character in "The Searchers"
That bank robber from "The Fugitive" Blondie from "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly" |
I agree with a lot on this list so far, so I'll avoid repeating a long list and say the first one that came to my head:
Bill - Kill Bill Vol. 2 In the scenes with his character, he just inhabits the badass nature. The way he talks and acts fits perfectly in my head, even more than someone who just does badass things. Definately like a lot of the lists though as well. |
One guy: Michael Corleone, The Godfather I, II, and III.
|
See if you recognize the theme here:
Joe - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly The Stranger - High Plains Drifter Josey Wales - The Outlaw Josey Wales Tom Highway - Heartbreak Ridge |
Er, let me guess. Clint Eastwood.
|
Maximus Decimus Meridius - Gladiator
Jason Bourne - Bourne Identity/Supremacy James Bond - Bond Series Sean Connery's character - The Rock |
Ooh, thought of another-- Jason Bourne in the Bourne series. Smart *and* knows how to kick some ass.
|
Shane - Shane
Rooster Cogburn - True Grit Snake Plissken - Escape From New York Jack Burton - Big Trouble in Little China R.J. MacReady - The Thing Wyatt Earp - Tombstone Sgt. Todd 3465 - Soldier Preacher - Pale Rider Darth Vader - Star Wars Ep. IV: A New Hope and Ep. V: The Empire Strikes Back Boba Fett - Star Wars Ep. V: The Empire Strikes Back and Ep. VI: The Return of the Jedi Jango Fett - Star Wars Ep. II: The Attack of the Clones Mystique - X-men movies |
Tony Montana from Scarface. He's just so ruthless. Definately one of the most badass movie characters.

I would have to add Wyatt (Peter Fonda) from Easy Rider. But I think the prize definately goes to Jules (Samuel L. Jackson) in Pulp Fiction - even his wallet is a "Bad Mother Fucker." |
robert mitchum. night of the hunter.
steve mcqueen bullit bruce lee enter the dragon |

The badass of Tombstone was definitely Doc Holliday, though I will say that Wyatt (Kurt Russell, if you must) had a much better "steely gaze" than Doc (Val Kilmer). |
Samuel Jackson's Character in "The Long Kiss Goodnight"... I love him in that movie...

Terry Tsurugi, Sonny Chiba's character from the "Street Fighter" series of films. This guy was ripping out nut sacks and Adams apples from his foes. I don't think you can get anymore "badassed" then Terry over there. If you've seen any of the films you'd know that this guy is some sort of human ass-kicking machine that can't be shut off. Seriously check out any of the films, they're great, and I'm sure you can find them for two or five dollars in the bargain DVD bin at your local corner store...
