Which action hero are YOU?

[m-jean03]

...In fantasy, or perhaps by some real resemblance?

Fellow females, I'm sorry I couldn't think of more women. There is sure a lack of kick-ass women in Hollywood. René Russo certainly plays an awesome part in Lethal Weapon 3, but I didn't know if she would be well-known enough to include on my list.

Feel free to add your favorites whom I couldn't fit or just forgot.

In case you're wondering, I'm a MacGyver girl to the end. :-)

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

1. Xena - Warrior Princess

That's me alright

[everythingsxen]

2. John McLane (Die Hard)

Because the man kicks serious ass. And he is witty too!

Although almost everyone on that list is major kickass.

If I had to be a "hero" from Buffy/Angel I would be Spike. He is teh awesome!!

[m-jean03]

3. Yeah, Spike!

Spike needs his own f*&(&ing show after Angel ends, don't you think?

[AlienGirl]

4. Heinlein's Friday

She's one of my role models because she is tough and survives through everything. plus, her life is a series of adventures rather than one overarching plot, sort of like mine.

Tucker

5. Interesting...

I never knew that about you.. that Friday was your hero I mean..

I sort of had a crush on Friday. :D

[AlienGirl]

18. Yeah? Cool!

I love the way she got herself out of jams and how she was portrayed as having inner struggles over questions about herself because society did not consider her a real person.

Ever see the TV show Dark Angel? I thought it was very derivative of Friday.

Tucker

[everythingsxen]

23. Yeah I saw Dark Angel..

In ways yes.. I could see that..

THe show itself though... well.. I just never got into it. :shrug:

[Misunderestimator]

6. Lara Croft....

I wish

[Mistress Quickly]

7. Starfire from Teen Titans

[everythingsxen]

8. No way - Raven Is waaay cooler!

:P

[Bertha Venation]

10. Starfire and Raven both need to be introduced to a sandwich.

[m-jean03]

12. Thank you!

We need women who can kick butt AND hold up in a light breeze.

:eyes:


Mmm...sandwich sounds nice about now. :)

[Mistress Quickly]

15. I just want the powers

They could wear a Sears duster for all I care.

[Bertha Venation]

9. Clarice Starling in "Silence of the Lambs"

[lapislzi]

11. The Janeane Garofalo character from Mystery Men

what was she? The Bowler? Can't remember, but she was a total bitch and kicked ass.

[clipse]

14. The Punisher.

I would say I am The Punisher. Growing up, Castle was my favorite hero. Macgyver would be second though.

[DS1]

21. Mine too, great comic books

But I'm not remotely built like him, and I like being outdoors during the day.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

13. Indy

Booky, smart, is a teacher, gets the girls, and has a way cool dad!

[m-jean03]

17. Yah, Indy RULZ!!!

Those films were rather sexist, but Indiana will rule eternally nonetheless.:-)

[Ganja Ninja]

16. John Shaft

Does that make me more dangerous or less dangerous?

[m-jean03]

19. SHAFT!! Of course.

Am I obviously a dumb white girl, or what? :P

[DS1]

20. I can McGyver may out of just about anything

:hi:

[m-jean03]

22. Well, vote for the guy then!

:hi: You're my hero DS1 -- we should hang out sometime! I love to fiddle around with stuff and try to MacGyver my way out of/into trouble! :-)

[DS1]

25. I hope you're better at it than your avatar

but you got any stuck buttons? :evilgrin: :spank:

[m-jean03]

26. Stuck buttons...

Only if you have a stuck zipper.. . I hear if you put them together, in the right conditions, you can make something...explosive. ;)

[m-jean03]

28. My avatar...

Don't diss Earhart, buddy!!!


:-)

[DS1]

29. how about I splash some water on her instead

wait, she's already underwater :evilgrin:

[CJCRANE]

24. Buckaroo Banzai ...

the coolest rock star/brain surgeon/rocket scientist in the 8th dimension!

[Westegg]

35. "Wherever you go...there you are." Buckaroo rules...

....AND I've been told I look like him. Yep, B.B, is my man, although I think I'm equal parts "The Outlaw Josey Wales" and Rick Blaine, from "Casabalanca." Maybe not yer typical "action heroes," but, after all: Life is only the movie you make it.

[EstimatedProphet]

27. John Steed, of the Avengers

I'm not bad with a saber...:)

[SarahB]

30. I used to be obsessed with Wonder Woman when I was 4 or 5

So I'll say Wonder Woman. She was cool.

[CrownPrinceBandar]

31. Jack Burton..........

I hate Kurt Russel, but I love "Big Trouble......."

[Parrcrow]

32. The Flash

I don't pay as much attention to the state of my fly as I should.

[Whitacre D_WI]

33. Shazam!

[terrya]

34. William Conrad as "Cannon" A Quinn Martin Production.

Cannon was a bit "stout", shall we say. NOT a lot of action. And he drove around in a big ol' Lincoln Continental Mark IV.

I identify with that.

[mwdem]

36. Sheena, Queen of the Jungle!!!

The really early one. The irony is, my 22 year old son loved the eighties one.
