pretty real you do number nine Sarah
Connor The Terminator franchise if you
found out that the majority of the
world’s population was going to die soon
and that your unborn baby will be hunted

likely be to just curl up in a ball and
cry face now I know it’s naming not so
for Sarah Connor of the Terminator
franchise the young student destroys the
cyborg sent to kill her and then
attempts to warn the world your only
dead everybody give you you’re dead

of Sparta and his men are gonna take as
many of the combatants they see with
them well let’s give him something to

what number six Max Rockatansky the Mad
Max franchise I’ll say the name if you
say yes or no we’re in Australia and Max
is the one man who might just be able to
restore justice in a world wrought with
Anarchy the baddest man in a dystopic
future where only the strong survive Max
is a main force patrol officer who
thrives on facing impossible odds the
chain in those handcuffs is high-tensile
steel and take you 10 minutes to heck

any things I guess when I shot you the
belly is too high so he goes on a murder
spree destroying everyone behind her
death in gruesome fashion and manages to
survive multiple gunshot wounds in the
process they should have shot me in the
head and enough times to make sure and
yet
Sin City’s Marv only succumbs after
being put to death twice the best you

tyranny of evil me that and he is one
bad mother well you know the rest which
