Your Favorite "Badass Old Dudes"

[MorganL4]

First one I thought of was Captain Price... man that guy needs a game to himself... which'll probably be better than all the others at that... -_-

Yeah, Call of Duty Pre-Modern Warfare.... Find out what his life was like back when he was just a lieutenant.....

 

[Jaeke]

Morgan Freeman (Im pretty sure god has his voice)

No, that would definitely go to this man:

 

[CadeDrake]

how did no one mention Mike Ehrmantraut from breaking bad. He's the only oldman bad ass enough to stare down Ron Swanson.

 

[Gabanuka]

This man takes on armies, gives the most useful advice on the show, is loyal as all hell and makes the best tea in Ba Sing Se. He was voiced by Mako in the first season which only adds to his badassery.

Next to him you are nothing.

 

[shrekfan246]

Uh... have we already forgotten who Sean Connery is?

I'm not amused, Miss Moneypenny.

 

[Lt._nefarious]

Sean Connery.

Why? Becaush, the namesh Bond, Jamesh Bond. Anyway Sean Connery mustache you a question but he's shaving it for later...

And why has there been no mention of Neeson or Patrick Stewart?

 

[CrazyCapnMorgan]

Badass old dudes, huh?...

Well, I dunno if dead actually counts as old...

Spoiler: But if it did, he'd win it all

From the gaming perspective, I'd have to go with ol' T.G. Cid from Final Fantasy Tactics.

Spoiler: You know, this guy

 

[Vegosiux]

Spoiler: Rule of thumb, Hassan...you can't kill the Messiah.

Spoiler: Yes, yes, sure he has the moments when he's demoted to be nothing but comedy relief, but when it counts, he packs some rather impressive moves.

Spoiler: Considering he's a paladin, and yet I did not see him as a pretentious stuck-up git, that should speak volumes.

And anyone played by Sean Connery, of course, as was pointed out.

 

[Puzzlenaut]

Iroh from Avatar, as some people have mentioned, is pretty damn badass, however the absolute winner has to, of course, be this badass muthafucka:

Spoiler

Captain-Commander Genryusai Yamamoto from Bleach. Why? because this:

Spoiler

He's over a thousand years old and still kicks all kinds of ass.

 

[JaceArveduin]

I'm going with Kal Skirata and Walon Vau from the Republic Commando books. I mean, they manage to hold their own fighting with genetically enhanced clones who are in their prime.

 

[Frontastic]

Ra's al Ghul in all his incarnations but especially the Liam Neeson version. It's pretty much the pinnacle of the recent Liam-Neeson-will-kill-everyone trend in his movies.

yeah, though they are becoming rather comical..

"Becoming" implies there was ever a point where a film like 'Taken' could be wathed with a straight face. Even the last half hour of 'Begins' is just brilliant one-liners and misanthropy.

None the less, that video was glorious.

 

[cswurt]

My favorite badass old dude is Epic Beard Man (Tommy Bruso).

 

[King of Asgaard]

There is a distinct lack of Big Boss in this thread. Why is that?
Aside from him, Auron and General Iroh would be my next picks.

 

[kortin]

Who's the best badass Old Dude? Heisenberg.
Am I right?

Uh, I recognize most other people in this thread...but who's that? He looks like Jamie Hyneman + Adam Savage.

 

[Thurston]

First guy I thought of was Uncle Iroh.

This man takes on armies, gives the most useful advice on the show, is loyal as all hell and makes the best tea in Ba Sing Se. He was voiced by Mako in the first season which only adds to his badassery.

Next to him you are nothing.

Best series moment for Uncle is from "Tales of Ba Sing Se" is he is mugged, but instead critiques the guys stance, disarms him, does an impromptu class in knife-fighting technique, has a cup of tea with him, and goes into career counselling mode.

 

[Bestival]

William Shatner of course!

 

[Pinkamena]

Who's the best badass Old Dude? Heisenberg.
Am I right?

Uh, I recognize most other people in this thread...but who's that? He looks like Jamie Hyneman + Adam Savage.

It's Walter White from Breaking Bad. Heisenberg is the name he goes by in the meth business.

 

[Mister K]

***** please, Auron is so bad-ass he needs to be mentioned in every "bad-ass" thread that get's made around here!

Truer words have never been spoken before! Here is your internet-cookie in the form of Auron:

Spoiler

Oh well, since I am in a good mood:
Rule 63 Auron:

Spoiler

And Sexy Auron for the ladies:

Spoiler

P.S. Please don't call humans bitches. That's disrespectful to our 4-pawed little sisters.

 

[Gabanuka]

snip

While I agree that was one of his best I think you're overlooking the other moment in that episode.

Spoiler: You know the one I mean.

 

[kortin]

It's Walter White from Breaking Bad. Heisenberg is the name he goes by in the meth business.

Oh, that's the show about the guy with cancer and ruining other people's lives while trying to secure his family's future, right?
