Okay, we have all talked about movie knives and our favorites, but what about the man (or woman) who uses it? Feel to answer one or all, at the end I will leave my personal choices. If you haven't seen these movies . .there are some spoilers in there so don't get made at me.
1) Who's the Badest MOFO to ever hold a knife!? (list both Bad Guy and Good Guy)
2) Who has the best scene with a knife in use? (Fighting)
3) Best use of a knife in a scene? (utility)
4) Best Death scene? (not that we here at blade forums encourage this behavior, entertainment only)
5) The coolest overall scene with a knife?
6) Most intense scene with a knife.
Okay now for my choices. I tried not to rack my brain too hard over these, and I know I may get some flak for my choices, but it's all in good fun.
1) I'd have to say Riddick from Pitch Black and Chronicles. Why? Well First off he is both a bad guy and a good guy at the same time. Out for himself yet forced to save others. He is one of the coolest character created in recent years.
One of the coolest things about him is the fact that he lives in the future where there are 'ray guns' vicious alien creatures and humans with supernatural powers and of all things what is his weapon of choice . .that's right a blade. That's a BADASS for ya. Plus he can see in the dark! Too bad most of the knives they had him use were fantasy crap knives used for visual flair.
2)Man ooo Man this was hard . . .although I was not a fan of his style of knives . . I 'd say V from The movies V for Vendetta. (Spoiler alert)Surrounded by numerous men with guns . . knowing he'd die he stood Vigilant and confident telling them that after they were done shooting him that they would all die by his knives before they could reload . . . and they did . . in slooooow motion . . . yep that'll 'bout do it. One of the coolest scenes ever with or without knives.
3) I don't know if this counts . . I kept thinking of the movie Skrull, but it is not a knife . . .need help with this . . .guess I 'll say Riddick climbing a mountain with two knives slicing into it and puling himself up.
4)Riddick and the Lord Marshal. I know some might think this wasn't a good enough movie to make this, but just think, you have a an army surrounding you and their king with supernatural powers, the girl you care about dieing at your feet and with your last bleak opportunity you trust you knife into the head of Lord Marshall snap off the blade and finish him off with a knee to the face . .leaving you the new king of an empire.
5) Okay, yeah yeah yeah I am a Big fan of him but, again Riddick makes the cut with a scene from pitch black. With no weapon in sight he forms a rough yet razor sharp blade out of some sort of steel bar, sits out side in straight defiance of his orders not to carry "shivs" (knife) and spreads grease oil over his head and begins to shave his head . . with no mirror I might add . .I don't know . .coolest as in attitude as oppose to a "visual look".
6) Saving Private Ryan . .'nuff said.
Well, there you have it . .so tell me what you think.
Ohh and too late I already know too much Riddick.
