This is the opposite of the "vampire" thread, so get lost if glitter gives you a hardon.
Now, best badasses. Any character from any film, book, video game, and even song. Even real people. List your favorites and why they are worthy.
'ere mine:
Most GTA characters (Claude, Tommy, Niko, Johnny) cause Ray Liotta voiced tommy, and the rest are brutal killers.
47 from the Hitman videogames. nuff said.
Johnny Cash. Great music. Punch you if you say otherwise.
I'll have plenty more, but now you post...

Bruce Lee, Billy Mays, and Samuel L. Jackson.

Oh c'mon, don't stereotype cause of a damn teeny girl novel.
Tony Jaa
Angus Young
Alucard (Ahaha, brought a vampire into this thread. )
Bruce Lee
Adenn
Dakoth
Anyone from gears, even Carmine. Anyone who only gets knocked down from 50 rounds and an explosive arrow to the chest is a hardass.

Since I gotta give a Firefly example, well - pretty much every character gets at least a moment of this - but The Operative in Serenity (the movie) is pretty much always this ("If your quarry goes to ground, leave no ground to go to.").
Star Wars I'll just give the bounty hunter examples: Boba Fett - before Karen Traviss got her mitts on him. Cad Bane - maximum levels of it for a kid's show.
I'll also throw in the fact that Sarah Connor took a level in it for everything after the first movie.

This.
Arkantos from Age of Mythology could, I suppose, be a bad***.
Sgt. Hale from Resistance.
Hannibal Lector.
Adolf Hitler.
Pope John Paul II (he was like Obama, but had even more super powers).
MAYBE Dante in the videogame Dante's Inferno (Dante's Divine Comedy had a boring, poetic Dante. That isn't to say it's not a great piece of classical literature, just that Dante isn't a 'bad***' character).
General Grievous??? If he wasn't killed off five minutes into the movie (actually, I felt Lucas' way of portraying him was fine).
Davy Jones & Cutler Beckett (Pirates of Caribbean).
Glenn Beck (that guy is bad***).
Vlad Dracula- the historically accurate leader (...)

Count Dooku you mean? Grievous survives up until Order 66, basically. Well past the amount of time say, Jabba the Hutt, lived on screen.
Grievous doesn't qualify anyway, I'd say. At least not in the movies. Since the majority of what he does is run away

Didn't know alcoholic cry babies could be badasses
Navy Seals, Delta Force, and Green Berets are all on my list. Sam Fisher from Splinter Cell series. Captain Kirk because he can kick butt and screw aliens. Clint Eastwood in Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, and The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.
As far as SW goes:
The Republic Commandos > ARC troopers > 501st cause dey slaughtered by Ewoks
Also Kyle Katarn.

As we alll are.
I'd also add Auron from FFX, and Chainer and Kamahl, both from a book series none of you have ever read.
Oh and Grey Fox, how could I almost forget?
Darth Splinter
Revolver Ocelot too.
Journey
On that theme, Raiden circa MGS4.
Marv - Sin City, Leonidas - 300, Conan, Snake Plisskin - Escape from New York/LA, John McClane - Die Hard, Martin Riggins - Lethal Weapon, Lil 'Ze - City of God.
RainaRose
Dante Sparda & Vergil Sparda from Devil May Cry
Chris Redfeild
Alucard (from Hellsing)
and Seras Victoria
oh and D from Vampire Hunter D.
Sirak Sazen
I'd forgotten Leonidas. Nice catch. Skorge (sp?) from Gears of War 2.
Lord Embeion
no? RAAM if anything. if you want a video game character then you can't go wrong with the Duke.

No, I meant Grievous. I recognize Dooku was LITERALLY killed in 5 minutes. I was making a reference to people that thought Grievous should have survived to the bitter end (and had more screen time).

I play GoW2 nearly everyday. I'll dooky on you and your friends. His faggety Kantus head has been banned in LAN competitions, that's how bad he is. Skorge blows ask Dakoth /thread
Spoiler:
RAAM was a much better final boss. All you did was chainsaw fight Skorge and rocket his mount
Dakoth
Skorge's only true use is having poorly designed headshot hitboxes. But this is irrelivant. Everyone knows the true video game bad*** is the main character of Crackdown.
Scion
I think Embion topped it with the Duke. I mean, the guy was just out of bubble gum.
Sirak Sazen

Is that the same raptor head from Dino-Rive?

Hm... looks like. Although mine is flipped the other direction and less blurred.
And has magnificent scruffy hair.
Scion
Ahh, I remember Raptor Jesus.
Actually, I still think he's in my Sig on TDSL
Lord Embeion
I think we can all agree that Soaps mohawk is bad***. I think we can all agree even more at how much of a badassjizzbombchucknoris Captain Price is though
Mathor
Rambo from the first movie.
Sirak Sazen
Damn, why didn't I get him?
Jimmy Patterson for Medal of Honor: Frontline. The man destroyed a Nazi U-Boat compound, stormed a train, overtook a German manor, infiltrated a secret compound, killed a Nazi general, then hijacked a German stealth bomber all by his lonesome.
Journey
Sgt Colbert - Generation Kill (Also, he's a real bad***, therefore his badassery is superior to most)

Stephen Colbert. Thanks for reminding me.

Ugh. Embieon has commited what amounts to a fairly unforgivable sin in my book. I'm not sure how I can punish him enough to justify the damage he has done to you.
Sirak Sazen
Don't worry. Knowing that he'll burn in 1000 hells warms my heart.
Dakoth
Well, a little severe, but I suppose it'll work for now.
Lord Embeion
Devrin it was Dakoth who made Sam ragequit. He didn't say anything about you but was cursing Dakoth off the entire time. We also knew you were gonna do that so it wasn't a BIG surprise you boast it to be
How is that a spoil? Everyone knows Soap is actually 2012

You know, its good to be talked about. Makes a guy feel important.

They got it wrong, the world wont end in December 2012, it will be December 2010!

Shut up. The world will obviously end in December 09.

The world has already ended, this site and all you robots are just a figment of my imagination.

So we could drive you insane from within your mind?

Well we're all aware that everyone on Rebels (except you) is just a puppet account of a single mastermind that enjoys talking to you (the person reading this post) via multiple personalities.
So, it's fitting if they occasionally use the same avatar.

Ah yes of course, I understand. So I can definitely say the master puppet is a diabolical person who suffers from bipolar disorder and skitzophrenia
