SABOTAGE : Melissa’s Favorite Badass On-Screen Couples

_MG_0058.cr2

In “Sabotage”, Arnold Schwarzenegger leads an elite DEA task force that takes on the world’s deadliest drug cartels. When the team successfully executes a high-stakes raid on a cartel safe house, they think their work is done – until, one-by-one, the team members mysteriously start to be eliminated.  As the body count rises, everyone is a suspect.

To celebrate the release of SABOTAGE, I thought it would be fun to highlight some of my favorite kick-ass couples to ever light up the screen… like Sam Worthington and Mireille Enos in the film. Check it out below!

Han And Leia – STAR WARS : THE ORIGINAL TRILOGY

starwars-v--han--leia-wallpapers_25678_1152x864

We can’t talk about badass couples without talking about Luke and Leia. These two fought across a galaxy far, far away… and found love. Plus, the dialogue between these two headstrong warriors is incredible!

Han Solo: Afraid I was gonna leave without giving you a goodbye kiss? 
Princess Leia:
I’d just as soon kiss a Wookiee.

Guess she likes Wookiees, huh?

John and Jane Smith : MR. & MRS. SMITH

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt in movie Mr and Mrs Smith

What are the odds that two skilled assassins would find each other and marry? This couple is strapped with armor, highly skilled, and so attractive that it should be illegal. Sometimes life isn’t fair guys. That’s all I can say on that matter.

John Smith: Careful, Jane. I can push the button any time I like.
Jane Smith: Baby, you couldn’t find the button with both hands and a map.

Clarence and Alabama : TRUE ROMANCE

true-romance-1

Young, in love, and on the run Clarence and Alabama are off to seek a better life for themselves… with a suitcase of cocaine. Hey, when Elvis tells you that you are on the path to a better life, you go along with it. Nothing about the beginning of their relationship is easy, but when it’s real I guess you just know.

Alabama: Did I do my part ok?
Clarence: Bamaloo you were perfect.
Alabama: Like a ninja?
Clarence: Like a ninja.

Who are some of your favorite Badass on-screen couples? Keep the conversation going below!

On Thursday, Paramount Pictures released a new clip from the upcoming fourth chapter in the MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE franchise. Watch this “Girl Fight” between Lea Seydoux and Paula Patton.

Blamed for the terrorist bombing of the Kremlin, IMF operative Ethan Hunt is disavowed along with the rest of the agency when the President initiates “Ghost Protocol.” Left without any resources or backup, Ethan must find a way to clear his agency’s name and prevent another attack. To complicate matters further, Ethan is forced to embark on this mission with a team of fellow IMF fugitives whose personal motives he does not fully know.

Tom Cruise returns in the starring role as Ethan Hunt and is joined by an international cast that includes Jeremy Renner, Simon Pegg, Paula Patton, Michael Nyqvist, Vladimir Mashkov, Josh Holloway, Anil Kapoor and Lea Seydoux. Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol is directed by Brad Bird, in his live action film debut, and written by Josh Appelbaum & Andre Nemec. Cruise, who produces the Mission: Impossible films, is joined by producers J.J. Abrams and Bryan Burk. The film will be co-financed by Skydance Productions. Jeffrey Chernov, David Ellison, Paul Schwake and Dana Goldberg are the executive producers.

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – GHOST PROTOCOL will be in IMAX theaters December 16 and wide release on December 21.

Josh Holloway Joins Cruise/Renner MISSION IMPOSSIBLE 4 Cast

“Lost” star Josh Holloway is joining the cast of MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE 4 according to THR.

In his first major screen role since wrapping the ABC show, Holloway is in final negotiations to act as a member of the Impossible Mission Force, the secret agent task force headed by Tom Cruise.

IMPOSSIBLE will be the first studio picture for Holloway, who spent six seasons as heartthrob anti-hero Sawyer on “Lost,” which was exec produced by Abrams.

Simon Pegg and Ving Rhames will return to the Paramount Pictures’ franchise as well as newcomers Jeremy Renner, Paula Patton and Vladimir Mashkov. The Brad Bird film will begin shooting this fall in Vancouver, Prague and the recently announced Dubai.

Fantasy Cast… Who should play Steve Rogers/Captain America?

fantasycast

It’s set for July 22, 2011.   ‘The First Avenger: Captain America,’ which I’m sure is going to get a name change any day now to just ‘Captain America,’ is coming out the month after ‘Thor,’ and the casting rumors are flying strong.

Of course, just about anyone can play Cap.   What role we need someone to fill is Steve Rogers.   It’s like casting Bruce Wayne before worrying about who would play Batman.

captain-america-comiccaptain-americacaptain-america2captain-america1captain-america41

If I can put my two cents worth in, I think the perfect choice for Steve Rogers/Captain America would be Josh Holloway.

josh-holloway

A few years back, he was at the top of everyone’s list to play Gambit in the next ‘X-Men’ movie.   I think he’s more suited to play Cap America.   He’s got the build.   He’s got the look.   He has the attitude.   Plus, being one of the favorites on a hit television show, he’s right on the cusp of breaking out.   He just needs a starring role in something like ‘Captain America’ to completely launch his career.

Now, we leave it to you.   Who do you think would make an ideal Captain America?   Are you more concerned with someone filling the Steve Rogers role?
