I’ve already covered the All Time Best movie character you want want to be friends with.

Read the article here.

It’s time to look at the other side of the coin.

Who is the one character you wouldn’t want to be friends with?

My pick was tricky but I settled on one that I feel would pretty much ruin my entire life.

The All Time Worst Movie Friend:

Tyler Durden

Stay with me for a moment.

I’m well aware that he is also one of the coolest movies characters of all time.

Fight Club is one of my favorites but lets look at it realistically…

Would you really want Tyler to be your friend?

Personally, I’d be terrified if Tyler was my friend because he doesn’t exist!  Lets face it, there is no way people will take you seriously if you spend your time punching the crap out of yourself…

I don’t want to start seeing people!  Especially people that convince me to do terrible and violent things.

No thanks Tyler…  I’m much happier buying my soap at the store.

PS: Where do you stand?  Which movie character would you avoid?

PS #2: He is pretty cool though…

There are so many movies that take you to an amazing new worlds you’ve never seen before.

Films that challenge your imagination to believe in the impossible.

Sometimes, there are clear sets of rules to help you navigate these worlds.

• Rules to survive a horror movie.
• Rules to pick up women.
• Rules to stay alive.
• Rules to keep you safe.

Movies with rules…

Here are 10 of the best:

Saw

Beetlejuice

Wedding Crashers

i Robot

Alladin

Zombieland

Gremlins

Scream

Speed

Fight Club

Bad Ass Movies was the first 10 Flicks list I made for this blog.  Many have come since then but the original Bad Ass Movies remains among the highest ranking posts I’ve created. 

So why not follow it up with an equally bad ass sequel?

Who doesn’t love a good action film, a gangster story or an unrelenting epic?  I can go on for hours about how much I love watching movies like these.

Here are 10 MORE bad ass movies!

A Bronx Tale

I find this movie is lesser known than some of the big Scorsese pictures but as far as gangster movies go, it’s one of the best.

Usual Suspects

If there is a movie that I regretted not including on the first list it’s The Usual Suspects.  It’s an incredible story with an ambitious twist that will leave you stunned.

Sin City

This is a FUN movie to watch.  Plain and simple.  So over the top you can’t help but smile at the bad-assery. Not to mention it’s got one of the coolest looks of any film on this list.

Kill Bill

Quentin Tarantino shares the spotlight with Martin Scorsese as the most bad ass directors on the planet.  Kill Bill is an amazingly original and entertaining revenge story with tons of B.A moments.

Casino Royale

Some may be surprised that I included a Bond film but I honestly LOVE this movie.  I think it’s the best James Bond I’ve ever seen.  The first chase alone makes it impossible to leave off this list.

Fight Club

Ah Fight Club.  The ultimate guy movie.  Such a messed up story.  This is another film I wished I had room for on the first list.

Gladiator

What really needs to be said here?  Gladiator is a perfect movie. 

The Departed

I’m so happy that Martin Scorsese finally got his Oscar. 

Casino

Anyone else shocked that I’m mentioning Martin Scorsese again?

A History Of Violence

This movie came out of no where and kicked my ass.  I was blown away.  I still am.  I’ve gotta watch this movie again.

Anyone who collects movies probably has a chest or shelf somewhere full of VHS tapes.

I have a large number of DVD’s in my collection but there are few that I own on both VHS and DVD.  I simply haven’t gotten around to updating my collection yet.

I have a fairly new VCR so why not just wait until the tapes shrivel up and die?

DVD and Blu Ray purests will argue that the picture, sound and special features definitely make the upgrade worthwhile.  I couldn’t agree more.

Here are 10 of my favorite VHS movies that I should upgrade:

Honorable Mentions: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Scream Trilogy, Men In Black

Snatch

“Five minutes? It was two minutes five minutes ago.”

When I first started collecting movies, I didn’t have a shelf so I simply made stacks with my favorites on top.  For some reason, when I think of Snatch, I think of those wonderful stacks that I was so proud of.  It’s one of the best bad ass movies out there.

Sneakers

“Be a beacon”

One of the main inspirations for this post. I watched this movie for the first time in a long time a while back and it’s still as entertaining as ever.  Read my Rainy Sundays post here.

Bad Boys

“Now THAT’S how you’re supposed to drive! From now on, that’s how you drive!”

Action movies have certainly evolved in the last decade. There haven’t been many decent buddy cop movies that have found success.  In my opinion, this is one of the best comedic combinations of all time and the movie is loaded with action.

Bad Boys 2 is a better flick but I own that on DVD so it doesn’t belong on this list.

Gone In 60 Seconds

“Low Rider Donny…  Donny?  Low Rider?”

I don’t understand why so many people seem to dislike Nicolas Cage these days. Granted, he hasn’t released a fantastic movie in a long time but you have to give him credit for some of the awesome action movies he’s been a part of.

Fight Club

“I am Jack’s complete lack of surprise.”

I’ve had a DVD copy of this movie in my hands so many times I’ve lost count.  Who can resist?  The movie tells one of the most original and disturbingly entertaining stories ever.  Period. Why don’t I own this on DVD yet? Not sure but I welcome gifts.  That is all.

Training Day

“You wanna go to jail or you wanna go home?”

Denzel definitely deserved the Oscar.  His performance is incredible but really, so is the movie.  One of the best.

Crimson Tide

“If I’m wrong then we’re at war…  God help us all.”

Crimson Tide is another movie I’ve written about recently. It’s the best kind of movie to curl up with when you’ve got a couple hours to kill on a lazy afternoon.

The Rock

“Welcome to the rock.”

Another Cage classic.  Team him up with Sean Connery and you get one of the best action movies of all time. I remember renting this movie on a friday night, watching it, rewinding and watching it again before going to bed.  I believe I owned it a week or so later.  I just don’t own it on DVD yet.

Remember The Titans

“I want them to remember, FOREVER, the night they played the Titans.”

For some reason, I really love watching movies with lengthy training scenes.  Movies that show the hardwork and dedication that goes into being successful.  There is something inspiring about that. I’d have to say that inspiring is an understatent in this case.

Pulp Fiction

“Mmmmmm, this is a tasty burger”

This is probably the biggest outrage on this list. There’s really no reason why I haven’t upgraded this movie yet.  I don’t know what’s wrong with me.  I feel like I should apologize…  I’m sorry.

PS: The lesson I learned from writing this post? Jerry Bruckheimer rules when it comes to VHS movies I need to upgrade.
