Round Two of Badassery pits James Bond against Snake Plissken. We now they both have awesome names but who would win in a fight? Take a look at our character breakdowns and tell us who you think is the bigger badass.
James Bond [from 007/Bond films]
Notorious ladies man and all around killer badass, James Bond aka Agent 007 has been played by a handful of handsome actors over the years. While each of them bring a little variation to the role, the Bond character always carries the same swag.
Strengths: Smooth, sophisticated, and able to weasel his way into and out of virtually any situation. Plus a nearly unlimited supply of gadgets from his old pal Q, including bad-ass automobiles with lasers and rockets and such.
Weaknesses: Every single bad guy in the universe knows who he is and he refuses to carry any weapon bigger than a pistol for longer than a few feet. He also likes the ladies, leading him to fall victim to one of history’s classic blunders.
Snake Plissken [from John Carpenter’s Escape From films]
Snake is former Special Forces operator/war hero in World War III turned criminal with a loose code of honor and a cynical ‘tude.
Strengths:Independent and free-thinking, he is a resourceful fellow with nothing really out of reach. He will use any weapon available to him and make use of whatever/whoever will help him in his quest.
Weaknessess: Very cynical, no allegiance to anyone or anything. He also had explosives planted in his body and a deadly poison coursing through his veins. He seems to have a real knack for getting stuff inserted into him.
