Top 10 Movie Characters with Badass Artificial Limbs


these characters really put the art in
an artificial limb welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’ll be
counting down our picks for the top 10
movie characters with badass artificial
limbs
for this list we’ll be looking at
artificial limbs that replace or
substitute at least one original missing
limb from a person we’re excluding
characters like dr. octopus who’s
robotic tentacle arms don’t replace any
existing limbs at least monstrous things
should be at the bottom of a river along
with me and Robocop who’s given a cyborg
body as well as Luke Skywalker
because we never really see a cybernetic
arm in action and it’s pretty much
indistinguishable from a regular one
number 10
Captain Hook Earp and I’ll get you for
this ban if it’s the last thing I do
this pirate captains famous cook hand is
probably one of the first artificial
limbs children ever seen you want a
splash mr. stock he uses his shiny
silver hook for everything from
threatening enemies to playing his fancy
grand piano rumor has it that already
she has come between you and Peeta
despite his cruelty short temper and
extreme arrogance Captain Hook is a
highly enjoyable character in addition
to being suave and cunning his hook
gives him that touch of originality that
good films need ha
you wouldn’t dare final hook man to man
you’d fly away like a cowardly feral
being a timeless bad guy he’s appeared
in countless other adaptations of Peter
Pan most notably Steven Spielberg’s hook
oh yes you’ll see no crow he’ll fight
he’ll fly and then you’ll die haha as
the song goes the world’s most famous
crook
there is the boy who won’t enjoy a
working for Captain Bull
the world’s most famous number nine
Kesley Tank Girl my my
she’ll be fun to break as bad guys go
Kesley is pretty heinous ly wicked even
before he loses his arm at his face your
face has been gutted mr. Kessler sir to
be honest your chances of seeing again
are as likely as your arm growing back
when his underlings failed him for
example he likes to extract all the
water from their bodies and drink it
water is life water is power but after
violent desert creatures called rippers
disfigure him and tear off his arm his
brand-new cybernetic arm and holographic
head just make him even more powerful
know what it means it means I can hurt
you but you can’t hurt me the arm is
also metal and covered with razors which
definitely ups his game when it comes to
a fight I won and you know it number 8
lieutenant Jean rats check Starship
Troopers
welcome back Jax what next oh the
soldier is described in the script as a
rugged veteran who proudly displays his
missing him but that only just begins to
cover it starts off the movie as a
teacher by Turing his students and using
his stump to emphasize his points you
they probably wouldn’t say anything
Hiroshi mow was destroyed correct this
makes him pretty memorable to begin with
but then he reappears later on as a
squad leader sporting a prosthetic arm
and punching out giant bugs ran out fire
teeth okay two buckle ok his missing arm
doesn’t slow him down as he proves to be
fully badass till the very end I expect
the best and I give the bet number 7 mr.
Han Enter the Dragon
I look forward to a tournament of truly
epic proportions mr. Han has a missing
hand but that doesn’t keep him from
being a criminal mastermind you have
offended my family and you have offended
a Shaolin Temple his crime empire runs
like oil and uses his prosthetic hands
to enforce his own strict if
unconventional moral code we are all
ready to win just as we are born
knowing only life it is defeat that you
must learn to prepare for in fact his
prosthetic gives him quite an ed first
he beats a man to death with his
cast-iron head and then he upgrades it
to a bladed prosthetic perfectly
designed to slice and dice his enemies
very few people can be totally ruthless
it isn’t easy
it takes more strength than you might
believe consider him like the
predecessor to the shredder
it is not possible number 6 gazelle
Kingsman the Secret Service if it did
that tends to happen when you shoot
someone in the head gazelles job is to
fight and her legs are her primary
weapons hunting through foes with
endless spinning high kicks
actress sofia boutella had to learn time
boxing and taekwondo in order to play
the part and it definitely shows can you
oldies please
in the original graphic novel gazelle
was a man with artificial legs turning
her into a female acrobatic killing
machine with razor-sharp blade
prosthetics just made her that much more
badass what’s wrong with them
I don’t could have something to do with
the mass genocide number five Bucky
Barnes Captain America the Winter
Soldier Bucky who the hell is Bucky
Bucky Barnes was Captain America’s
sidekick but he died too near the end of
World War two or so everyone thought
best friends since childhood Bucky
Barnes and Steven Rogers were
inseparable he was actually captured by
the Soviets who gave him a cybernetic
arm to replace the one that was torn off
in the crash that had supposedly killed
him
the now brainwash Bucky has been an
amazing fighter since his childhood and
his new metal arm just makes him all
that much more deadly my mission
it makes him as strong if not stronger
than Captain America himself which means
strong enough to tear open armored cars
and smash concrete with just his fists
also it’s strong enough to play frisbee
with the cats shield who was he you met
him earlier this week on another son
number 4 Imperator furiosa Mad Max fury
road you done this before many times
furiosa is an all-round amazing
character and not just because of her
awesome attitude and incredible fighting
skills and then for me
unfortunately Hollywood is still
struggling in their representation of
both female and disabled characters
which makes furiosa a very refreshing
change and relying on the gratitude of a
very bad man here already damaged one of
his wives how grateful do you think he’s
gonna be with her mechanical arm
unquestionable leadership and quest for
redemption the disabled female lead is
not only a fan favorite but arguably the
main character of the movie how does it
feel it hurts
out here everything hurts you want to
get through this
do as I said she proves that missing an
arm doesn’t make her any less capable
and she’s just as confident fighting
with her stump as she is with her
awesome prosthetic they’re looking for
hope
what about you
Redemption number three Edward
Scissorhands Edward Scissorhands what
happened to you I’m not finished Oh
Edward is an artificial man whose
Creator died before he was finished
creating him which left the titular
character with razor sharp scissors for
hands and you know since they’re the
only hands Edward has ever known
and scissors aren’t actual human limbs
he still technically makes the cut for
this list can’t you love you poor sheep
strayed so far from the path we’re not
sheep
don’t come near me when Edward winds up
in a suburban village his scissor hands
help him artfully trim hedges and make
ice sculptures before long the villagers
start to fear him though
not heaven he’s from straight from the
stinking flames of hell power of Satan
isn’t him I can feel it in their eyes
Edward is monstrous it needs to be fixed
but the film shows that the real
monstrosity lies in the hearts of normal
non-disabled society they didn’t hurt
you did they were you scared
Edward is in fact more humane than many
of them instead of stealing and taking
advantage of others
he uses his incomplete hands to create
something beautiful I’ll be done
number two Cherie darling planets terror
come on skip Go Go not cry cry it’s hard
to get more badass than a machine gun
for a leg
Jerry starts out as a down-and-out go-go
dancer but when she loses her leg in a
zombie attack it’s the tipping point in
her life no pun intended recipient actor
I shot at them
I never miss that delay with him instead
of letting her disability slow her down
she first gets it replaced with a wooden
leg and then replaces that with a
modified gun complete with rocket
launcher you stop crying over spilt milk
I have no leg this leads to her swiftly
becoming the leader of her ragtag team
of survivors
her gun prosthetic ends up getting her
way more confidence than she ever had
before
and it’s undeniably epic to see a swarm
of zombies falling under the steady
stream of bullets and grenades you think
of a lake
oh there’s funny before we unveil our
top tip here are a few honorable
mentions Friday night
ten o’clock 75,000 in cash oh you got a
knife
that’s very good there oh one of them
stole you have proved yourself useful
these past few months
thank you mister
oh how to say Inspector food I think
somebody’s been watching too many
Saturday morning cartoons hmm Oh number
one ash Williams Evil Dead franchise
when an evil force released from the
Book of the Dead possesses Ash’s hand he
has no choice but to hack it off yeah oh
but that just makes an already pretty
cool character even more cool in Evil
Dead 2 he picks up the same chainsaw
that he used to self amputate and with
Annie’s help attaches it to his stump
and goes on a rampage
sawing his way through the possessed
undead hordes Hey
ha ha ha swallow this as ash himself is
want to say groovy groovy not only that
but in the sequel army of Darkness he
finds himself in medieval times and
makes himself a metal gauntlet in order
to keep right on kicking ass hail to the
