Weekend Discussion: best action flick heroes

A while back we had a discussion about the best and worst war movies around. I learned about a couple flicks I needed to see in that film. When I realized the American Film Institute had a list (albeit from a few years back) that purportedly rates the best heroes and villains of the big screen, I thought to myself...Self, we can do a much better list than that.

So, your weekend discussion this time around is: Who/what are the best action flick heroes (go ahead and name the worst ones if you want) of all time? Character, actor, movie. Some actors may be repeated (Snake Plisskin and Jack Burton for instance).

Hope you guys have a great weekend. Go forth and conquer.

Who are the baddest action flick badasses to date?
