Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Because books.
After 150 years, you’re bound to be a little stiff.
Bwah! That is pretty uncanny, though. The first two pictures alone are amazing.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
My favorite bad ass is Uma Thurman as The Bride. (with huge props to Zoe Bell). I'd pick House of Blue Leaves as the most bad ass scene.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Biggest badass, Statham in The Transporter is one. But my fave would be Willis in Die Hard. If we include TV, Al Swearingen on Deadwood.

Badass? Either Ripley from Aliens (the iconic loader scene!) or Bill Paxton's character in Near Dark, during the roadhouse massacre.

Bill Paxton's character in Near Dark, during the roadhouse massacre.
Oh HELL yeah!
"Finger lickin' good!"
"I hate it when they ain't been shaved!"
And decidedly NOT his character from Aliens.

I always liked Vasquez from Aliens, too. She might have had her attitude shaken when the aliens took out her squad, especially Drake, but she kept it together (unlike Hudson) and maintained her badassness throughout. Even while she's writhing from pain after being sprayed with alien acid, she's still reloading her pistol, and even manages to go out with a badass quip, "You always were an asshole, Gorman."

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
My initial gut feeling was to say Bette Davis or Joan Allen, but I can't tell you a specific film. DIfferent kind of badass certainly, but that's what comes to my mind.
