I know someone who should've been on our list from the beginning: Jules, from Pulp Fiction. "Mmmmmmm, that is a tasty burger."

Awesome. On saturday, our summer-long project will commence. YES, the great plan to paint the entirety of Orange County pink.
I mean red.
Either way, this is going to be the most badass summer in the history of badass summers. I guarantee it.

Lord of what from what? Hmm, maybe some classical badasses. Odysseus from the Odyssey. Comon, that guy was tricky as hell, defied the gods, and killed all the punks trying to move in on his turf. And he did it his way. Achilles. He's the baddest moff in all of ancient greece, and no one could've whooped him, except Orlando-Bloom-like Paris of Troy, who shot him in the heel with an arrow.

Hudson from aliens. Just READ this quote:
Comon, gotta admit, anyone who says that has to be badass.

He goes in a blaze of glory; they have to COVER him for him to stop firing. He wasn't punk'd from above; he made them feel the burn.

Has Boromir been considered? Come on! That guy went out the way we'd all like to meet death: Getting tons of poison arrows in the chest while saving a bunch of munchkins from a menacing army of orcs, sort of.

What about the Bride from Kill Bill? She killed like 100 hundred people when she was only looking to kill five!

That guy went out the way we'd all like to meet death: Getting tons of poison arrows in the chest while saving a bunch of munchkins from a menacing army of orcs, sort of. I would like to remind the audience that Boromir whinned the entire time about the friggin' ring and that he died halfway into the film. Considering that those munchkins each killed just as many baddies throughout the trilogy, killing orcs is just as equal to killing harder-than-usual ants.

Well you may be right, which I don't think you are. But Boromir did have the awesome idea of launching the ring into Mordor with a catapult! That alone makes him baddass, and a genius no doubt.

Indeed, catapults are quite awesome.... I just don't see him as badass as Pai Mei, Darth Vader, or Buckaroo Banzai. Then again, I'm blind.

I think if anybody from Lord of the Rings deserves a spot on our ultimate list of badass, it's either Sam or Gimli.
Check it out, this guy Sam travels all the way into the buttcrack of the earth with his "friend" who actually prefers the company of a deformed schizophrenic freak, and takes verbal dumps on Sam's head whenever he gets the chance. Sam shows no remorse, however, and sticks with him and eventually risks his ass SEVERAL times saving the jerk-off's life. And that INCLUDES disemboweling a giant man-eating demon spider. That is pretty badass for a dude that's no more than three feet tall.
As for Gimli, he was an awesome badass character who got jipped and used as comedy relief by Peter Jackson.
Hudson in Aliens, hmmm... While he did spout some of the greatest badass lines in the whole movie, alot of his lines during the latter half of the movie involve him whining about how their all gonna die ("Game over, man! GAME OVER!"). Ripley, on the other hand, survived through three movies worth of Alien killing awesomeness, and even came back for more as a clone in the fourth film. Ripley's got my vote. I DO love that state-of-the-badass-art quote though...
Oh, that reminds me, I propose Predator for a position on the badass list. Come on, it's friggin Predator.

Predator lost cool points for being associated with Aliens Vs. Predator. I'm actually referring only to the ORIGINAL predator, from the ORIGINAL movie. No other predators. Add him, dork. On another note, I'd like to make another suggestion for the list. I suggest The Warriors. And when I say The Warriors, I mean the whole group of them. Nine guys, who fight their way across a whole city worth of gangs and police to get back home. I'd say they are more than deserving of a spot on the list.

But you're right, the Warriors have to be added. They have BADASS written all over em, and when I saw this movie I thought nothing but BADASS. So they definitely have to be insta-ADDED!

Hey. I have a suggestion. Some of you might not remember him or consider him much of a badass, but I do. How about John Preston! From Equilbrium. The guy who could whoop a room full of forty guys armed with assault rifles with only two sidearms! Not only that! But take on 10 swordsmen completely unarmed, killing all of them with their own swords! Now that I think about swords, Kenshin should also be added, no explanation needed.
