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.")

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.

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! |

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.

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."

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).

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...
