Everyone's going to have to get past someone else. So don't worry too much about a seeding system. (If your goal is to see who's the baddest-ass motherfucker of all.)

But if you're looking for a couple more:

Eric Bana as SFC Norm 'Hoot' Gibson, Blackhawk Down

Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow, Pirates of the Caribbean

Sgt. Maj. Plumley is Sam Elliott, not Mel Gibson.

Other suggestions:
Neil McCauley, Heat, Robert De Niro
Verbal Kint, The Usual Suspects, Kevin Spacey
Memphis Raines, Gone in 60 Seconds, Nick Cage. (Stealing hot cars and getting it on with Jolie in a Hemi Cuda? Badass.)

Kyle Reese (Michael Biehn) from The Terminator. Actually, his Johnny Ringo from the movie Tombstone fits the title badass to a teeth, so I'm recommanding him too.

Gibbs (Mark Harmon) from NCIS

House (Hugh Laurie) from House

And yes, definitely Jack Sparrow!

Isn't House a crippled frail guy suffering from chronic pain? He may be a brilliant doctor, but I can't see him doing well in a fight.

A couple of revisions, based on the conversation that we just had:

Add Mickey from Snatch (Brad Pitt), and remove River because she has super-human abilities since the government screwed with her brain.

Rome guys

Gotta add Lucius Vorenus and Titus Pullo from HBO's series "Rome". I'd take Pullo over at least 75% of this list.
