Jonah Hex
15 years ago
General
Now that's my kind of hero! Not to mention his taste in weapons.
For those who don't know Jonah Hex was a soldier in the ol' west. He wound up killing his best friend, and the guy's father took it personal and killed Jonah's family and made him watch. The bad guy (whose name I forget) branded Jonah's face, disfiguring him but left him alive so he could see his face every day, and left him hanging on a cross. Jonah was near death when the local American Indians saved him and when he nearly died he came back with mystical powers, he can communicate with the dead. Not to mention he's borderline immortal himself.
He's just like an old west version of Landslide... only without the warm fuzzy side. And it gets good from the beginning!
"A man who has revenge in his heart should dig two graves. One for the man he kills... and the other for himself. I recon mine can wait."

Jonah's one of "my boys". I would've loved it if he, just once referred to his guns as his "shootin' irons". It was a great movie. Josh Brolin was so good as Jonah that, to me, Megan Fox was "Megan Who?".
