Adelrune wins!

Theoden will be added. Magneto is already on the list (and has IMHO a good shot at winning).

Actor-
James Earl Jones- He was Darth Fucking Vader, Thulsa Doom, and the guy Jack Ryan looked up to. His voice is so badass that womens panties spontaneously disintigrate at the mere sound of it. No fucking contest. Kinf of Zamunda for the win.

Music-
Johny Cash- This guy is so manly that when people say "The Man in Black" and everyone knows who you are talking about. He is so manly that only James Earl Jones could even be remotely manly enough to play him in a biographical movie.

Comic Book Character-
Lobo- The guy kils santa clause in a knife fight. He gets drunk so he can consider killing superman an actual challenge. The only guy in his league would be Victor Von Doom, but Lobo rides a spacefaring motorcycle and uses a hooked chain in combat, so he is the clear winner.

Movie Character-
Scarface- One AK47 Assault Rifle + One giant pile of cocaine = 70+ dead cuban hitmen. You fuck with me you fuck with the best!

Bullet Tooth Tony- The fact that it says Replica on the side of your gun and that it says Deasert Eagle on the side of mine, should precipitate the shrinkage. Now, fuck off!

Real Life Badass-
General Sherman- The guy cut a path of burnt destruction 5 miles wide across 5 states that the south is still pissed about almost two centuries later. Pretty much single handedly nailed the coffin shut for the south in the civil war.
War is an option whose time has passed. Peace is the only option for the future. At present we occupy a treacherous no-man's-land between peace and war, a time of growing fear that our military might has expanded beyond our capacity to control it and our political differences widened beyond our ability to bridge them. . . .

Short of changing human nature, therefore, the only way to achieve a practical, livable peace in a world of competing nations is to take the profit out of war.
--RICHARD M. NIXON, "REAL PEACE" (1983)

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, represents, in the final analysis, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children."

When you say badass, do you mean the strongest one, the fastest one, the one who can defeat most opponents in the shortest time or the one with the baddest ass (have to visit the toilet the most times in one day) ?

I am not sure by the deifnition, but i must say MR.T from A-Team! :)

OR Maybe a combination of Arnold Schwartzenegger and Ronnie Coleman!

Magneto shouldn't win.

Hell, Cable or Franklin Richards could beat him.

Franklin would just put him in a pocket universe. Now that's badass.

This is what happens when you don't read the books.

And on that note, if you're going to have LotR characters, and you include Sauron, you might as well not even include anyone else. Nobody from the LotR even comes close to him.

King Theodin was the king of Rohan. Mildly badass.

Magneto...Xmen? Cmon.

Atokal, don't you think Mr. Blond/Vic Vega would be a good edition?

To Everyone: I'll update as soon as I get time. I'm going to limit the nominations (since there are 1 billion) to end tonight at midnight.

What I believe I'm going to do for the next phase is the following:
Anyone who wants to will be able to select 2 individuals from the list and write a detailed account of why they believe that individual _should_ be on the list. I strongly encourage you to NOT just write the type of bullshit that I've seen for a local Jack Bauer fan. The idea is, you're familiar with the character, and you're going to inform the readers here. You're going to describe specific events or actions that this character did that make him a badass. As an example:
Jules - Pulp Fiction
Carries a wallet that says 'Bad Motherfucker' on it.
Is able to be in the same car as John Travolta without killing him.
Recites Ezekiel 25:13 prior to killing someone.
Is a hitman by profession.

(just an example, but you get the idea. There were some great examples given for the guy in Deadwood yesterday in IRC)

You will also write descriptions of why 2 people should_NOT_ be on the list.

I'll figure out the description phase. Everyone is allowed two votes for and two against. I will not accept entries that show a lack of character knowledge, or idiotic fanboiism with no content. You MUST know your favorites. You're trying to convince others.

Any character that gets nothing but no votes is immediately gone. All other characters will be part of the voting, which will be in the form of a poll. I will include the best descriptions in the poll post. Once we have a winner, the writers of the descriptions for their characters will win some unscecified number of VVs. I can't say the number until I have an idea of how many descriptions there will be for a given character. Obviously, I can't pay out 1000vvs per character if 30 people do a write up on Batman.

If any of this is unclear, let me know.
Oh, my God; I care so little, I almost passed out.

What context do you need for Elric? He looks like a pansy with albino skin but has a sword that feeds him. It requires the blood and souls of many victims, thus he goes out and kills...lots. He is the ruler of dreaming city. Plus he looks awesome.
