It’s interesting that Jack Burton is getting so many nods.....I love the character....but really doesnt the guy just want his truck back so he can hit the road......a true reluctant hero to say the least.....but the dude has some of the best one liners in cinema history.

F13, have you seen the original Django with Franco Nero.....Nero is a very bad ass in that film...as far as Bronson goes, I think you all know where I stand on that one.....although, his character Harmonica, in Once Upon A Time In The West, may be the baddest mofo to ever appear on celluoid and Henry Fonda in that film as well....its a total tale of badassery!!! I love Death Wish and I think it is a deeper film than given credit for, I think F13, and this is purely conjecture, you are a fan of the badass who never meant to be a badass....I can appreciate that, different approach, same goes for Mclaine.....reluctant heros are the staple of most action films from our youth.....thoughts?

Definitely, Average joes pushed into extraordinary feats of badassery always get the nod from me.
