Poll: Most Badass Action Actor?

[THEMILKMAN]

I'm gonna go with Bruce Willis simply because of Die Hard and Pulp Fiction (although It's not really much of an action movie but it's pure awesome)

But old Clint comes in a VERY close 2nd place.

I left out Bruce Lee because he owns all. And I'm not even mentioning that "other guy" you know...the Ranger...that walks...in Texas...and was killed by Bruce Lee : 3

Arnold, watch Commando and you will see why

" LET OFF SOME STEAM BENNET " '

 

[Frankydee]

I'm gonna have to go with Statham since I've gotten into sort of a kick with the guy lately.

 

[skywalkerlion]

Clint Eastwood.

But Sean Connery is another good guess.

 

[Birras]

Reb Brown. B-movie action star to the extreme.

 

[Rigs83]

Viggo Mortenson; see Eastern Promises, History of Violence and The Lord of the Ring trilogy.

 

[The Shade]

Clearly Bruce Willis.

Die Hard?
Sin City?
Planet Terror?
Lucky Number Slevin?
The Fifth Element?
Pulp Fiction?

C'mon. Yippee ki-yay, ************.

Ah, so Bruce Lee doesn't count. Good move, OP. If it weren't, I guess every post would say "Bruce Lee."

I think I'll go with Arnold. Why? He's the only one who can say, "Who told you you could eat my cookies?!" and make it sound fucking awesome.

I don't see how anybody could hear the phrase "badass" and not immediately think of Clint Eastwood.

Agreed. For who, really, is more badass than Blondie?

 

[Chipperz]

Jason Statham, with Bruce Campbell in a close second place.

 

[G1eet]

Toshiro Mifune ftmfw.

 

[quiet_samurai]

Arnold, watch Commando and you will see why

" LET OFF SOME STEAM BENNET " '

"But you said you'd kill me last"

"....I lied...."


Yeah The Governator FTW!

 

[Altorin]

Arnie for sure.

 

[sunami88]

They are all fine choices, but Clint Eastwood: I mean, c'mon! He's f****in Dirty Harry! All others need not apply.

Bruce Willis being a close second, but he's been in some terrible movies.

EDIT:
Just noticed too, but; Really? No Chuck Norris?

Um, where is Steven Segal? Come on, man, gotta include him. And no Chuck Norris?

Did you read the last part of my original post? No Chuck. But yeah Steven Segal should be there too.

Sean Connery, the original Bond. A director was asked this same question and he said that while on a set, he saw Sean Connery with his head on one chair and his feet on another, his body from the neck to the ankles completely straight suspended in the middle, with nothing underneath him. He was sound asleep in this position.

 

[Simalacrum]

go Arny go!

Nothing can beat the good ol' "I'll be back" X3

Simon freakin' Pegg in Hot Fuzz.

Obviously, any man who redubs half of his lines in the latter half of the movie so that they sound more badass is the best action hero.

But seriously... uh, I guess I don't watch enough action movies to know for sure, so I'll go with Simon Pegg
