Ultimate Bad Ass - The Wildcard playoff

Okay, so we have a few people disagreeing over the last and final spot in our Pop Critics Ultimate Bad Ass competition.

I foolishly stuck Blade in there without realizing he was half-vampire, so he’s gone again and we now have a big dilemma over who gets his spot.

The choice is between the following: Jules from Pulp Fiction, Mr. T and Leon from The Professional, Kaiser Soze and Hannibal Lector.

We have one reader who HAS to have Mr. T in the competition, a lot who want Jules, one who just tossed in Leon to be difficult and the Ape threw the final two in at the last minute to add more fuel to the fire.

So the only way to make everyone happy is to have a Wildcard Playoff to determine who gets the spot.

Here you go…the vote is yours.

  1. I mean, look at that picture, how can he not be in this competition?!?!

    Steven’s last blog post..Top 100 Movies: Hooky, A Conspiracy Theory, and Laverne’s Masterpiece

  2. Mmmmm, now THATS a tasty cheeseburger!

  3. ROTFL

  4. decided to roll with Jules. I mean how can you not after he shoots the flock of sea gals guy on the couch and says “oh, I’m sorry did i break your concentration?” Pretty bad ass scene.

  5. I’m having a tough time choosing between Jules and Hannibal…this is hard.

  6. I thought Mo said we might have a separate bad guy list down the road, so not sure how the baddies made it on the list…

  7. Oh well…

  8. What language do they speak in What? Look at the brain on Brad!

    C’mon, this is too easy, gotta be Jules!

  9. I think Nicky voted :)

    Sorry Nicky, we still love ya :)

  10. Hannibal is a creepy psycho, not a bad ass. It’s between Leon and Jules, none of the rest are credible. Criminal masterminds and geniuses don’t belong in an Ultimate Bad Ass poll, no matter how smart you reckon they are. Can they kick ass? No, then maybe they can be saved a spot on the Criminal Supergenius poll that’s coming up next. ;)

    Plus, Mr. T was neither particularly smart nor particularly badass, because he was scared like a little girl to fly, but the other weenies sure did outsmart and knock him out several times a season, didn’t they?

  11. Ouch, Robert. Forgot about Mr. T’s fear of flying in The A Team.

    And Mr. T goes down for the count again…much like he did in Rocky III…

  12. JULES!!!!

  15. I pity you fools and all your jibba jabba. I just voted now, so now two people love Mr. T with me!

  16. Does the “T” stand for twinkle-toes?

    The Trousered Ape’s last blog post..Who was Jesus of Nazareth? Parts 3 and 4 of 10 with Dr. Craig

  17. It stands for Taberknackle

  18. LOL - I have no idea what that means, but it’s funny.

    The Trousered Ape’s last blog post..Who was Jesus of Nazareth? Parts 3 and 4 of 10 with Dr. Craig

  19. I was gonna say it stands for: TheyWhoCouldNotHitTheBroadSideOfABarn but, nah…

  20. lol - nice.

  21. I cant imagine the movie version of the A-team will succeed, look how Miami Vice turned out…

  22. I call foul - there is no way that Mr. T is pulling in 6 votes.

    The Trousered Ape’s last blog post..Who was Jesus of Nazareth? Parts 3 and 4 of 10 with Dr. Craig

  23. @ Ape LOLOLOLOLOL… I hadn’t even checked the tally lately… too funny.. Nicky must of bribed Mo to up the vote count. She said she’d give him a pair of free daisy flower flip flops… and he was missing that out of his collection…

  24. I was the first to vote for Mr. T, not because I ever watched an episode of A-Team, but because Nicky is my friend and I didn’t want Mr. T to go down without a fight… much like he did in Rocky.

  25. hahaha Cap’n! I would never bestow those flip flops on my worst enemy! Looks like Mr. T is making a surge, yay!!

    nicky’s last blog post..Beauty wants.

  26. i love you Jina.

    nicky’s last blog post..Beauty wants.

  27. Ugh - the T. love is getting gross…

    Are you sure Mike doesn’t already own a pair of those flip-flops - because he does a lot of that you know. Trapsing around…

    The Trousered Ape’s last blog post..Who was Jesus of Nazareth? Parts 3 and 4 of 10 with Dr. Craig

  28. I dunno, if I see those at Mo’s house I’m gonna know a fix was in! ;)

  29. I feel like I need to sit down and watch the Godfather for a week straight just so you guys think I’m actually a MAN…lol

  30. You are way beyond the needs of Godfather - you need to watch 300 twice a day for the next 2 weeks…

    The Trousered Ape’s last blog post..Who was Jesus of Nazareth? Parts 3 and 4 of 10 with Dr. Craig

  31. Well we can judge either by the flip flops or him wearing 72 gold chains around his neck, that a fix was in…

  32. Speaking of the godfather, I finaly saw it. It was one of those movies I had never ever never ever seen. And was up to it on our AFI top 100 list review, so saw that and part II… but aside from that , I agree with Ape, you need to watch a bunch of manly shows…

  33. 72 Gold Chains - he might die from OG (Over Gold)…

    The Trousered Ape’s last blog post..Who was Jesus of Nazareth? Parts 3 and 4 of 10 with Dr. Craig

  34. So Cap’n, does that mean you are throwing the flip-flops out now?

  35. You guys are depressing me…I can’t watch that much of 300…

    I think I’ll go turn on Sense & Sensibility and eat some ice cream.

  36. ror

  47. @ Cap’n - someone is stuffing the ballot box…”that’s what she said” - wait, wrong thread…

    The Trousered Ape’s last blog post..Who was Jesus of Nazareth? Parts 3 and 4 of 10 with Dr. Craig

  48. Mo is wearing those flip flops, HAS TO BE…..

  50. That’s ok - looks like Jules has pulled back into the lead…

    The Trousered Ape’s last blog post..Who was Jesus of Nazareth? Parts 3 and 4 of 10 with Dr. Craig

  51. Woot! Go J-man!

  52. T is using the power of the Fro-Hawk to stay right on the heels of Jules…

    The Trousered Ape’s last blog post..Who was Jesus of Nazareth? Parts 3 and 4 of 10 with Dr. Craig

  53. I see his Fro lighting up and you see Mr. T in different angles/poses as he exclaiming “t….T…T!” all to the Thundercats theme song..

  54. First name Mr, middle name ‘period’, last name T!

    nicky’s last blog post..Beauty wants.

  55. I got no flip flops on, I’ve even withholding a second vote, but there are cheaters out there! 17 votes for Mr. T.?!?!!?

    OMFG

  56. Looks like Nicky has some ASU friends helping out :)

  57. Huh? I’m not cheating! You can only vote once and I really do not have the technical skill to know how to get around that. And Adrian is way too honest so he would never help me cheat!

    And I don’t know anyone who goes to ASU! Only a couple people who work there and if they vote for Mr. T then that’s only b/c they’re no fools! :)
    nicky’s last blog post..Beauty wants.

  58. Cap’n: <—- Has no faith in final result of actual tourny now….

  59. Looks like Jules needs to stage a rally. Might be time for Jules to pull out the 44 Mag and take out MR. T.

  60. While I did not vote for Kaiser Soze, is still a bad ass movie. His manipulation and mystery is right up there with Ben from Lost.

  61. Yeah, THIS competition is gonna have a valid result alright…

  62. how is this not valid??? if people are voting for mr. t then obviously they think he is a bad ass! what’s the deal with all the whiners on here?

    nicky’s last blog post..Beauty wants.

  63. The winners (me) saw Mr. Tidbits get no votes like all day, then in 2 min he got 7… thats what we are whinning about…doesnt matter to me anyways… he’s losing first round to Mr. Rodgers….

  64. hey all i did was tell some of my peeps about pop critics and the cool contest going on. i’m giving them new readers! i didn’t force people to vote for mr. t. they just realize true greatness and good style! :)
    nicky’s last blog post..Beauty wants.

  65. plus it was only like a handful of people so i have no clue where all the mr. t fans came from. they must have been summoned by all the jibba jabba going down here!

    nicky’s last blog post..Beauty wants.

  66. This is great, I love it all :)

    I mean, I don’t want to see the “vote for the worst” happen here on Pop Critics, but I guess if it does, it does!

    But we’ll see how it goes…this is going to be fun :)

  67. @Nicky, ya know we’re teasin don’t ya… :) I’d call on some of my peeps to vote for Mr. J… but I watch tv so much I dont have any hehe…

  68. yes, i know you’re teasing me, and i’m attempting to dish it right back :) but shame on you for picking on a pregnant lady!

    nicky’s last blog post..Beauty wants.

  69. @ Nicky - you have to pick a different excuse - Mike has already used that one. :)
