    What are some of the coolest movie characters of all time. Here are a few that come to mind of the top of my head.

    Trent (Swingers): T had so many great lines in this movie it made Vince Vaughn a star. Vince should be sending Jon Favreau a portion of all future checks he gets from his movies.

    "There's nothing wrong with letting the girls know that you're money and that you want to party."

    Caster Troy (Face/Off): Caster Troy was so cool as a villan I actually wanted him to prevail over that wuss Sean Archer.

    "If I were to send you flowers where would I... no, let me rephrase that. If I were to let you suck my tongue, would you be grateful?"

    Mr. Blonde (Reservior Dogs): Mike Madson plays a cool cat in just about every movie he does, but this one is his best.

    "Eddie, if you don't stop talking like a b****, I'm gonna slap you like a b****"

    Wooderson (Dazed and Confused): Mathew Macahnay was excellent in this part as a guy who couldn't let go of the high school experince.

    Wooderson: "Say, man, you got a joint?"
    Mitch: "No, not on me, man."
    Wooderson: "It'd be a lot cooler if you diid."


    Any others?

    Roger O Thornhill from North by Northwest. I can't imagine anyone else playing that character other than Cary Grant.

    Sean Connery as James Bond.

    ... I always thought people were just Bond snobs when they dismissed all the other Bonds...until I saw some of them old flicks.

    Yes, Sean Connery was awesome as James Bond. My favorite line from him was in Never Say Never Again.

    Fatima Blush: "Oh, how reckless of me. I made you all wet."
    James Bond: "Yes, but my martini is still dry. My name is James."

    What a pimp!

    Wasn't Trent based on Vaughn anyway? I'll bet he improvised some of the best lines from that movie.

    hands down

    Marv from Sin City

    Mickey Rourke played this character beautifully.

    EDIT: I take Marv back, if it was the most BADASS, it would be him, but I would put him up there as cool. :)

    Also anybody from Ocean's Eleven. George Clooney and Brad Pitt stand out the most.

    Michael Douglas' character in Falling Down is pretty cool :)
