I'm gonna have to go with Bruce Campbell. I mean, a chainsaw for an arm has to mean something now a days... right?

Because you need to be pretty hardcore to act like a very femine guy and then go walk back to your wife smiling xD

I vote for Ken Wantanabe. He played Katsumodo in the The Last Samurai, for those who are curious.
Why? Not only does his on-screen persona command immediate respect, not only does he excel at martial arts in film like Van Gogh to canvas, but get this, Escapists...
He made that movie while he had leukemia and hepatitis. Guy's still making movies.
With leukemia. And hepatitis.
LEUKEMIAANDHEPATITIS!

I'm little disappointed nobody's pulled out one of the original badasses, Richard Dean Anderson. The man can make a nuke out of a paper clip and a gum wrapper (MacGuyver) and blow up alien spaceships with a machine gun (Stargate SG-1, Col. Jack O'Neill). Doesn't really matter how many push-ups you do when faced with that.
I'm also going to toss in Patrick Stewart (obvious), Sean Connery (the man can play an English spy, a Russian submarine commander, a Spanish immortal swordmaster, and a Japanese policeman... all with the same heavy Scottish accent. And nobody even thinks twice about it in the movies. how's that for badass?), and Jackie Chan (the only actor I know who can pull off bumbling humor and badass martial arts/action in the same movie. time to take some notes, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson!)
