The Greatest Movie Tough Guy of All Times

[Jim]

Toshiro Mifune.

That was my second thought after The Duke.

 

[BilliardKing]

Bruce Willis as John McClaine.

Yippie Ki Yay...

 

[WesternModern]

Robert Mitchum
Lee Marvin


QUOTE=Derdonkderd;4632623]Elvis Presley (Karate Chopped a leopard, 'nuff said)

It wasn't an Elvis movie if he didn't deck a guy or two.

 

[jlanger]

Duke certainly would be on my list as well as ermey.

What about Viggo Mortenson?

 

[Harry Snider]

As a kid, I wanted to be Billy Jack. Tom Laughlin.

Also say what you will; Steven Seagal kicked some serious A**! In 'Hard To Kill' one my favorite all-time scenes when he says "This is for my wife, now ***-you and die!' and kills badguy with a broken pool cue!

I don't care who you are, fighting naked and killing a man while in your altogether is TOUGH. I am not even tough enough to watch that scene anymore.

 

[Derdonkderd]

Robert Mitchum
Lee Marvin


It wasn't an Elvis movie if he didn't deck a guy or two.

And he got all the girls...

Also add Mr. T

 

[p.m.a.]

Marlon Brando

 

[Mick]

Another vote for Cagney

 

[JoshuaNY]

Sly Stalone is pretty BA
Wesley Snipes
Robert Deniro
Charles Bronson
The Rock (Dwayne Johnson)
Lee Van Cleef

 

[luvmysuper]

Some great names here! Some are obvious contenders and I didn't even think of them till I saw them posted here.

 

[attime6]

Chuck Norris, in the beginning there was nothing, then Chuck Norris roundhouse kicked that nothing and said "Get a job", and that's the story of the universe.

There are just so many, where to begin??
Forgive me for probably leaving out many other good picks.

I never got to meet him in person, but Clint Eastwood is my pick for 'Greatest Movie Tough Guy'.

Having worked in both the executive protection & security industry for 14 years in Southern California, I was fortunate enough to meet numerous celebrities & sports figures.
Please forgive my (somewhat long list) of Hollywood tough guys.
I have actually met some of these men face to face (in bold) =-)

Yes! Malcolm McDowell!

He played a pretty gruesome Caligula as well.

"Over there...past them trees"

Predator is one of my all time favorite movies for sure. Forgot that Mac is in the Dollar Shave club.

Gotta tip the cap to Jesse Ventura in this movie too...."I ain't got time to bleed"


And Billy, and of course Schwarzenegger....."If it bleeds we can kill it"

Pretty much the whole cast of that movie except Dillon (aka Apollo Creed)....."CIA got you pushing too many pencils?"


If you can't tell, I have seen that movie a few times.

Honorable mention to Bruce Willis as John McClain.....I was born in '82 if you couldn't tell

 

[puros_bran]

Your all wrong..... the most baddest, unstoppable, crazy determined , movie tough of all time:

Wile E Coyote.
