LilyRT · Accepted Answer

bad@$$ implies not only toughness but also coolness.  you can kick everybody's butt, and never spoil your leather jacket doing it.  and you never cry over a chick. in no particular order:

1.  Samuel L Jackson as Jules Winfield in Pulp Fiction  (the guy has a wallet that says bad m-f-.  are YOU gonna mess with him?)

2.  Kurt Russell as Snake in Escape from New York  ('call me snake'.  and you would, you really would.)

3.  Brad Pitt as Tyler Durden in Fight Club  ("I look like you wanna look, I **** like you wanna ****, I am smart, capable, and most importantly, I am free in all the ways that you are not."  all the guys in the audience just said, "you had me at hello.")

4.  Al Pacino as Tony Montana in Scarface  (you're surrounded by swat teams out to kill you, you've killed your sister and your best friend, your marital status is just sad, but you've still got enough cajones to say "Say Hello to my Leetle Friend!"  that, my man, is bad@$$)

5.  Sean Connery as James Bond in Goldfinger (i love jason bourne, but you seriously can't put him on and not put in bond.  any guy who can hear the pilot say her name is "pussy galore" and not giggle like a teenager is ubercool by any definition.)
