Movie Badasses

Totally agree with Creasy from “Man On Fire.” And Russell Crowe in “Gladiator.”

Others on my list:
-Bulwyf in “13th Warrior”
-Vic Mackey in “The Shield”
-Achilles, Hector, and Ajax in “Troy”
-Clive Owen in “King Arthur”
-Russell Crowe as Bud White in “L.A. Confidential”
-Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday in “Tombstone”
-Chow Yun Fat in “The Killer” (or in any John Woo movie, really)
-Titus Pullo, Lucius Vorenus, Mark Antony, and Julius Ceasar in HBO’s “Rome”
-Seth Bullock in HBO’s “Deadwood”
-Robert DeNiro in “Ronin”
-Walsingham in “Elizabeth”
And, of course, BRAVEHEART

Titus is such a fucking hardass in that show. God I can’t wait for the next season, Rome is the reason I got HBO.

Marv was the shit!

Well, if you hadn’t, I would have.

“I took his head, and raped his woman before his blood was even cold!”

I always wondered what the hell he killed to get that helmet and armor. The helmet almost looks like the skull of a Predator. Talk about a bad-ass crossover!

Robert Deniro in Heat.

Mel Gibson in Braveheart.


Good Ol’ Sho!


This guy, then everybody else.

“Well, you gonna pull those pistols or whistle Dixie?”

Here’s one for all the hater’s…Bruce Lee.

A good martial artist does not become tense but ready.

Not thinking yet not dreaming, ready for whatever may come.

A martial artist has to take responsibility for himself and face the consequences of his own doing.

To have no technique, there is no opponent, because the word “I” does not exist.

When the opponent expands I contract and when he contracts, I expand.

And when there is an opportunity, “I” do not hit,

“It” hits all by itself.

What’s more badass than that!!!

Fucking good point hahahahaha

Another bruce lee quote:

“To hell with circumstances. I create opportunities.”

Question: What are your thoughts when facing an opponent?
Bruce: There is no opponent.

We all know Eastwood, Arnold & Bronson kick ass. I’m going add to the list of actors that don’t always play tough guys. But do in the following.

Jason Statham - Mean Machine (2001) - Sure, we know he kicks ass now, but this is before The Transporter. I only knew him as Turkish & Bacon.
Michael Chiklis - The Shield (TV) - I was shocked when I saw The Commish kick ass.
John Cusack - Grosse Pointe Blank (1997) His hand to hand with Benny “The Jet” Urquidez’ (world-champion kickboxer) was great.
Stacy Keach - The Ninth Configuration (1980)
Benicio Del Toro & Ryan Phillippe - The Way of the Gun (2000)
Paddy Considine - Dead Man’s Shoes (2004)
Sam Elliott - Road House (1989)
Denis Leary - Suicide Kings (1997)
James Spader - 2 Days in the Valley (1996)

How about Bruce Leeroy, the bad mofo karate stud!

Has anyone seen Jake the Mus in “Once Were Warriors” and “What becomes of the Broken Hearted”?

Bastard could fight.
