Heroes & anti-heroes.Why not these ?





Maximus from Gladiator
Jack Aubrey from Master & Commander
Elessar aka Aragorn from Lord of the Rings
Jimmy the Saint from Ten Things to Do In Denver When You're Dead
Robocop
Oskar Schindler in Schindlers List
Ripley in the Aliens franchise
Balian in Kingdom Of Heaven

And the sexiest by far Selene in the Underworld franchise.

wheres the Terminator

he should be in both lists

Megatron should be in the villain list and R2D2 should be in the heroes list
