Snake Plissken

Image

Bob Hauk: You going to kill me, Snake?
Snake Plissken: Not now, I'm too tired.
[pause]
Snake Plissken: Maybe later.

Bob Hauk: You go in, find the President, bring him out in less than 24 hours, and your're a free man.
Snake Plissken: Bulls***!
Bob Hauk: I'm making you an offer.
Snake Plissken: Get a new president.
Bob Hauk: Is that your answer?
Snake Plissken: I'm thinking about it.
Bob Hauk: Think hard. We're still at war. We need him alive.
Snake Plissken: I don't give a f*** about your war... or your president.


vs


Ripley

Image

Ripley: It's using the air shafts.
Parker: You don't know that.
Ripley: That's the only way. We'll move in pairs. We'll go step by step and cut off every bulkhead and every vent until we have it cornered. And then we'll blow it the f*** out into space. Is that acceptable to you?



Can Snake defeat Ripley? Voting goes until Sunday night.

Ripley is one tough broad. She gets my vote

Snake - he took on NYC and won! He surfed a giant wave in apocalyptic Los Angeles - and won! He married Goldie Hawn!

This is a coin-toss for me, guys. Someone give me a cognizant argument for either of them.

Sigourney was nominated for an Oscar™ for playing Ripley.

The closest Kurt has come to that feat is wishing that he were an Oscar Meyer Wiener.

(I kid, of course. I give zero weight to awards given out by people who are not me.)

Snake fought human beings carrying conventional weapons.

Ripley fought -- and beat -- aliens with abilities far beyond those of mortal men.

Ripley is capable of utilizing a pair of binoculars. She can therefore spot her enemies from farther away.

Ripley was willing to sacrifice her own life to stave off the threat of a new alien queen.

Snake surfed with Steve Buscemi.

Ripley still looked hot when she was taking out the alien and aliens.

Snake impregnated Goldie Hawn, and produced a really hot daughter.

Checkmate!

That was Kurt, not Snake. Hardly a cogent argument for which one's tougher.

This one, on the other hand, was enough of an argument to sway me.

I went with Snake. Ripley is tough as nails but I think Snake could take her out.

I love both of 'em.

Snake never struck me as being the brightest button in the box though so Ripley has the edge IMO.
If it was a contest for the most decorative however I'd have to say Snake.

If you're referring to Kate Hudson, you've got the wrong sperm donor. Her father is Bill Hudson, not Kurt Russell.

BONG!

I hate to say it, but Snake has a tough opponent with Ripley. Taking out gangs & soldiers is nothing when compared to taking out alien creatures that have acid for blood.

I gotta give it to Ripley. Her balls are just a bit bigger than Snake's!

I was all set to vote for Ripley, until I saw her doing one of those stupid-ass DirecTV commercials.

Snake all the way, now.

Oh, yeah. That was really bad, that commercial. I expect that kind of shit from a Shatner, but not from Sigourney.
