Don't get me wrong, I love Lee. When I was young I used to watch a show on WTOG 44 on Saturdays called Creature Feature with Dr. Paul Bearer. Loved that show, so may great old horrer/monster movies. Anyways, I think every single vampire movie ever made was played on there, and I particularly loved the Christopher Lee ones. I also LOVED the 1970's Three Musketeers, his Sauruman was perfect, and his moments as Count Dooku were among the high-points of the Star Wars prequels. And The Man with the Golden Gun was my favorite Bond movie in my youth.

But, all that said he is not the biggest movie bad ass ever. Maybe one of the best movie villains ever, but not the person you would expect to walk into a crowded bar, and be the only one able to walk out after the shit hit the fan.


I agree

But you have to admit us Brits make a great movie bad guy.
And I don't mean Walden, I posted that because he is a bad ass

he is a general badass, not only movies even though his career is ridiculously long. he also does music and more recently some super cheesy symphonic metal. and that's at 90 years old
