Come on, seriously, Lee even kicked Chuck's butt in Way of the Dragon.
Chuck = fat, cheesey, bad actor, terrible hairstyle
Lee = lean, mean, bad actor, questionable fashion sense
Who would you back?
Chuck Norris is the only man who can create viruses that can actually roundhouse kick you through your computer.
'Chuck' is an English expression used to mean
chuck v 1. to vomit. "I think I'm going to chuck." 2. to throw. "Chuck that ball over here."
or
If you call someone chuck, it implies token but not genuine affection for them.
Norris, well the only definition that springs to mind is,
a man who knows all the world records.
Yours

Originally posted by RagnorakJudging by your hilerious (yet, oh so disturbing) avatar, you had an encounter with Chuck. I can see why you wouldn't want to assign him the position of hero in your eyes. But you gotta admit a man who can do that to you in one roundhouse kick is pretty impressive. 😉
Jackie Chan, especially in Legend of the Drunken Master. He's my hero.

Bruce Lee is a historical icon! On a par with Monroe, Cobain, even Guevara. A face we all know. Not for the same reasons of course, but an inspiration to millions, even today. There's a difference between famous and legend, and Bruce Lee is a legend!
Someone beter drag you out of here and shoot you.
Cobain.... POO HAAAA!
Even mentioning Che in the same paragraph as him is evil, dimwitted and punishable by death.
As for Bruce Lee...wasn't he a skinny guy who went to great lengths to suffer pain???
Yeah...the sort of person we really need as a bloody icon.
I suggest, as icons of our era:
- Kate Winslet (She gets her boobs out in nearly every film and slet is the Dutch word for Slut).
- The mammas and the pappas (God knows what they looked like...but free love for one and all...let the party begin!)
- Timothy Leary (Total tosspot, but even Darvlay needs a role-model).
- Uma Thurman (if ANYBODY is going to kick me to death...I want her to do it. Hell yeah...she can use me as a punchbag all she wants)
Originally posted by shavixmirI wasn't comparing Lee and the others in terms of ability, achievement or anything else. I was saying that his face is one of those everybody knows, which is what I would define an icon. It doesn't mean he is necessarily better or worse, or even as good as, just as well known. I happen to have bigger heroes, but most of you wouldn't recognise them. Find me a person who wouldn't identify Bruce Lee from his photo.
OH PLEASE.
