20 of the Most Badass Characters to Ever Grace the Screen
‘Snake Plissken’
The realm of fiction has room for all kinds of people, from superheros to supervillains, at least if the box office is to be believed. It’s true that more ordinary characters tend to be relegated to the lower profit margins, but they’re not necessarily any less interesting. It’s not like you learn a whole lot about yourself through the struggles of Aquaman.
But let’s be real: Learning about yourself is boring. When it comes to entertainment, it’s just a lot more fun to watch someone with abilities we’ll never have to fight off bad guys who can’t exist and throw perfect one-liners as competently as their fists.
That’s why user Visible-Athlete-3707 asked r/AskReddit, “Who is the most badass fictional character of all time?”
