7 Tyler Durden - Fight Club
I think the coolest thing about Tyler is that he was this big buff hot guy in the narrators mind that was created to embody all the things he wanted to be. But in creating Tyler, the nerdy little narrator inadvertently becomes Tyler and does all this crazy badass stuff, with his (proverbial) eyes closed. - xxdeadxeyesxx
Most Badass Moment: Beating the crap out of the narrator after he tried to shoot him. - aman28
Tyler Durden is by far the coolest, intelligent and badass movie character of all time. He should be at the number 1 spot.

19 The Man With No Name - Dollar Trilogy
Long after the "Dollars" series had ended, Eastwood admitted that Blondie/The Man With No Name was not human, but was in fact, The Angel of Death, which is finally revealed in Pale Rider.
