Toshiro Mifune


I'm not entirely sure how I'm going to top this one, but it needs posting. Chances are, if you think of the word "samurai" you're thinking along the lines of the myth that Mifune brought to life. Surly, drunken, battle-hardened with a heart of gold, he was the centerpiece of classic Samurai movies such as Kurosawa's "The Seven Samurai","Yojimbo" and "Rashomon." I'll leave the reader to source more detail from Wikipedia and IMDB, but I don't think there's an argument convincing enough to remove this guy from the hall of badassery.
