6. JOHN McCLANE
WHY HIM: Through four Die Hard movies, Bruce Willis' wisecracking, terrorist-foiling New York cop established himself as the anti-Bond, making the world safe for flawed blue-collar superheroes in torn T-shirts and jeans.
MOST HEROIC QUOTE: ''Yippee-ki-yay, motherf---er.''
COPYCAT DESCENDANTS: Keanu Reeves in Speed (Die Hard on a bus!), Wesley Snipes in Passenger 57 (Die Hard on a plane!), Jean-Claude Van Damme in Sudden Death (Die Hard at a hockey game!). And so on.
