Robert De Niro... I find it absolutely impossible to believe you didn't even bring him up.... Just the other night, I sat down and watched The Hunter.... probably for the hundredth time already...
What an absolute masterpiece of a film....🙄

We don't even have Jack Nicholson or Bruce Lee anymore...
There's nothing left... No sun... No moon... 😁 😁

Al Pacino 😕
Robert De Niro 😕
Look, guys... maybe call me when those two actually manage to save the world from superpowered aliens, or take down some killer machine sent back from the future, or even protect a major US city from criminals dressed up as Batman. Then we can talk. 🙂 🙂
I guess some people on this thread have just completely lost their minds. 🙄 🙂 😁

Jack will show up once we actually start making a list of the world's worst criminals. 😁 (Alright, alright... I get it... he's not your typical cartoonish villain, except maybe in Batman, but he can be pretty ruthless when he needs to be 😁)

The duo of William H. Macy and Tom Cruise... they’re basically mega heroes
plus having Jerry Stiller and Jason Alexander as sidekicks

Katharine Hepburn said:the greatest cinematic hero is definitely Atticus Finch (Gregory Peck)
I hate to admit it, even if he is defending an African American kid 😁, but that's one of my absolute favorites... 😉
Still, I'd take John Wayne any day. At least the guy knows how to handle a gun. 😁
When Atticus just uses logic to outsmart a complete idiot, I just lose it... 😁

If you’re looking for a hero who remains absolutely unshakable in pretty much every single film—the kind of icon nobody can mess with—you're looking at Arnold Schwarzenegger, Clint Eastwood, or Sean Connery. But since I was forced to pick just one, 🙂

Even if he’s pulling fewer votes now, I honestly think Mel Gibson outshined everyone else when it came to sheer BRAVERY...🙏
And man, just thinking about that movie now... it actually makes me want to cry.🙂

😲 My sister insists Cruz Castillo is the real deal since he basically saved half of Santa Barbara. "Freeze! Santa Barbara PD!"😉

Just throwing some more names into the mix...
Clint Eastwood is easily the toughest when he's playing Dirty Harry.
Then you've got Bruce Willis holding it down in Die Hard and Armageddon.
And Billy Bob Thornton in Once Upon a Time in America—he’s not your typical hero, but the guy is incredible.
Now, let's talk about some of the leading ladies for a second...
Jane Fonda in Barbarella.😁
Angelina Jolie as Lara Croft in Tomb Raider.
Milla Jovovich in The Fifth Element and Resident Evil.
And, obviously, the legend Uma Thurman in Kill Bill.😉

He went from being a total badass in Commando to being a Governor. I guess life comes full circle, huh?😁
And he even saved Mars... you know, like The Red Planet, back in The Whole Wide World. 😁
