The most bull shit list EVER, they ranked shit above Rambo. They ranked Rambo at 18, while they ranked shit like:

Robin Hood
Uma Thurman
The bitch from Aliens
Mel Gibson
Tom Cruise
John McClane
Other shitty people

Better than Rambo? Come the fuck on, this list is a steaming pile of goat doo doo.

the list is questionable, at best.

Why is Aliens always so high on lists like these? That movie was a steaming pile of crap.

I gotta disagree with you on this one...and that's rare.


Alien and Aliens are two of the best sci-fi horror movies ever made....if not the two best. If you want trash the third and fourth ones, you have a lot of grounds to do so...but the first two? Probably the two best of two different genres....

Nowhere near a steaming pile of crap.

I dunno Mel Gibson was pretty cool in the Lethal Weapons.

Bruce Willis for McClane deserves the top 25 as well.

It wasn't for Lethal Weapon. Mel Gibson got it for Road Warriors............I've never even heard of that movie.

Alien was sci-fi horror classic... Aliens was a formulaic sci-fi action movie for the masses, right down to the sympathetic kid lead role.

That was my initial impression, anyway. Of course, I was burdened by having seen so many movies that may have been influenced by Aliens before I saw Aliens. Also, I watched both movies in one sitting... I loved Alien so much that I watched Aliens immediately after, at 3am. So I'll probably see it again some day.

Mad Max and The Road Warrior (the sequel) were bad ass....you should watch them.

Most of the characters on the list I am cool with if not the order. I thought Keanu was too high, Rambo was too low and Tom Cruise didn't belong at all.

Where is Luke Skywalker on that list?

I know he was a whiny pissant in Eps 4 and 5, but he was a bad ass in Jedi.

:tu But no love for Beyond Thunderdome? :lol

McQueen or Chuck Bronson both have roles that should have landed them on that list. Fuck Robin Hood. Ripley is definitely too high up that list. I love Aliens, but I can't put Ripley ahead of Indiana Jones in good conscience.

I like Mad Max that high. Rambo needs to go Rambo on the makers of this list.

I would like to see Cruise, Segal, and Reeves out.

I prefer Daniel Craig to Connery...I know he's only been in one Bond flick...but, it was good.

I would also like to see Arnold in for Conan, Eastwood in for his man with no name Westerns (or Josey Whales), Gibson for Braveheart, and maybe Harrison Ford for Bladerunner. Bladerunner is not really an action movie, but Decker (if that's his name in the movie) would toughen this list up more then Robin Hood, Reeves, Cruise etc.

The Rock could be the next big one but 90% of his movie choices are so lame.
