Oh, Cyd Charisse. Those legs. The small but very memorable scene from "Singin' in the Rain"

Holy crap, and what about Lina Lamont from "Singin' in the Rain"???

Cyd and Fred were absolutely amazing.

No Cyd Charrise as "Nina" in Silk Stockings? Or as "Gabrielle" in The Band Wagon?

D*mn! I swear I was adding Cyd Charrise as Fiona Campbell as my next entry but thought I'd gone too far and cancelled it.

^^Are you kidding? I was just wondering why he rates higher than Darth Vader or the Dude? Or hell, Citizen Kane, for that matter, who is up in the 90s??? I call bullsh*t.
And Blade makes the list at all? BLADE??

What about Linda Blair's character from "The Exorcist"? Or The Tramp (Charlie Chaplin)? Or Linda Hamilton in "The Terminator" instead of just Arnold Schwarzenegger. Holly Golightly (Audrey Hepburn) in "Breakfast at Tiffany's"?

Of course the list is predominantly male and biased towards action movies. The whole thing also appears to be an advertisement.

The Dude: Yeah, well. The Dude abides.

The Stranger: The Dude abides. I don't know about you but I take comfort in that. It's good knowin' he's out there. The Dude. Takin' 'er easy for all us sinners. Shoosh. I sure hope he makes the finals.
