The Battle of the Badasses: Discussion Thread (Odysseus Wins Tie!)

[Michael Gary Scott]

Stannis a badass?

[4815162342]

Yeah I wouldn't go that far.The ASOIAF badasses are Bronn, Oberyn Martell, and Wyman Manderly (read Book 5).

Ezio's accent gives him a badass status forever and Stannis would totally walk away from an explosion without looking back

I mean he's cool but he's still so fat that he can barely stand up which eliminates him from badass contention imo. Meanwhile my boy smashes the Tullys at the Goldentooth, captures Riverun, and when he's finally outmaneuvered he goes full yolo at the Whispering Wood. He charged Robb Stark's bodyguard and would have killed him if his sword didn't get caught in the neck of the Karstark dude.

When a dude who for the first four books is the butt of everyone's jokes and is name-called "Lord Too-Fat-To-Sit-A-Horse" steals the entire book with sheer balls of steel and the most perfect revenge schemes and quotes, he deserves a badass title. IMO.

Lol the

Frey

pie was certainly a stroke of badassery, I'll give you that.

[Warmaster506]

 I will nominate Doctor Strange.

[chasmmi]

So many hard decisions here. Eg Freddy Kreuger vs Indiana Jones.

 

 

Theoretically Fredddie was win this everyday just needs Indy to sleep and fill it with snakes. Yet Kreuger has been constantly beaten by horny teenage kids whereas Indy defeated the Nazis.

[The Stingray]

I nominate every character Denzel Washington has ever played.

[The Stingray]

Oh, if you want badass, look no further than:

 

Samus Aran

 

 

And her inspiration (probably): Ellen Ripley

I edited Wobbuffet out of mine because there was a 0% chance he was going to end up nominated.

What a guy!

[The Panda]

Remember, nominations end this Friday.

[darkelf]

Gave in to peer pressure I replaced Stannis with the Mountain for obvious reasons:

I can't believe I forgot about this...

 

I also made way for Adebisi

 

Oh, and Panda, do I have to pm the list to you or is it okay to leave it here?
