Random Question: Which actor has amassed the greatest collection of supernatural abilities through the roles he has played.
I'm bored so I decided to hit up IMDB to do some very important research.
[Ed. Note: Dear Family, (who is sitting next to me watching home movies while I am on the computer) You will undoubtedly look over and read this paragraph and get upset. I'm not really bored, I was just using a literary device.]
Hugo Weaving:
Everlasting Life and bad ass elf skills - Elrond: Lord of the Rings
Quickness and a variety of other super skills - Agent Smith: The Matrix
The ability to be a jet or tank - Megatron: Transformers 1 & 2
Freedom fighting/super human reflexes - V: V for Vendetta
Hugo has played a wide swath of characters with supernatural abilities. He can't die. He is superfast. But on the other hand, he can be destroyed by The One and is usually foiled by the Autobots.
Overall Grade: B+
Arnold Schwarznegger:
He is a MACHINE - Teminator: Those movies
The ability to make things cold - Mr. Freeze: Batman & Robin
Brains and Brawn - Conan: The Barbarian
Brawn. Son of Zeus - Hercules: in New York
So he is strong. And he has a lot of muscles. But I'm not too impressed.
Overall Grade: C+
Hayden Christensen:
A ton of midi-chlorians. Jedi Powers. - Anakin Skywalker: Star Wars Episodes II-IIIHe was supposed to be the chosen one. But the power of the dark side + teleportation is still pretty impressive.
Overall Grade: B
Samuel L. Jackson:
Prolonged life, cosmic eyepatch, cool weapons. Veteran. - Nick Fury
Jedi Powers - Mace Windu: Star Wars Episodes I-III
Freezing Abilities - Frozone: The Incredibles
Badass MotherShutYourMouth - Shaft
Fragile Bones - Elijah Price: Unbreakable
All amazing...until you get to the last one. That is going to hurt his overall ranking. I've had it with these mother&$^@ bones in this mother&#^% body
Overall Grade: B-

Feels no pain, Vigilantism - Darkman
Leader of the A Team, Master of Disguise - Hannibal: The A Team
Fighting skills. Gang Leader - Priest Vallon: Gangs of New York

Other than dying in two movies despite his powers, a very solid resume.
Overall Grade: A
Christopher Lee:
The skills of the Dark Side - Count Dooku: Star Wars Episodes II-III
Wizard Skills - Saruman: Lord of the Rings
Everlasting Life. Vampire Skills - Dracula
Unbeatable Reasoning - Sherlock Holmes
Kind of unfair that he has been acting for 60 years. Regardless, he should use his powers for good.
Overall Grade: B+
Ryan Reynolds
Wielder of a Power Ring. The most powerful weapon in the universe. Capable of anything the wielder can dream of - Green Lantern
Accelerated Healing due to Weapon X Program - Deadpool: X Men Origins
Vampire Killing Skills - Hannibal King: Blade Trinity
Pretty good combination of killing skills. Plus he has the most powerful weapon in the universe.
Overall Grade: B+
Eric Bana
Time Traveling Romulan - Nero: Star Trek
Super Human Strength, Speed, Stamina, Durability. You wouldn't like him when he was angry - Incredible Hulk
The greatest fighter of the Trojan Army - Prince Hector: Troy
Time Travel. Uncontrollable - Henry DeTamble: Time Traveler's Wife
If Hector had the skills of the Hulk, maybe he would have been able to defeat Achilles. Regardless, Paris is still a punk. Don't know what Helen saw in him
Overall Grade: B
Zach Quinto
Intuitive Aptitude & Empathic Mimicry give him the ability to steal all sorts of superpowers - Sylar: Heroes
Superior reasoning. Has an evil twin in a alternate dimension with a goatee - Spock: Star Trek
Sylar is a wild card and gives Quinto a huge upper hand.
Overall Grade: A
Christian Bale
No real powers. Has more money that Jim$ to buy cool toys - Batman
No real powers. Knows magic - Alfred Borden: The Prestige
No real powers. Just a bad ass robot killing dude - John Conner: Terminator Salvation
No real powers. Has a nice business card. Likes Hewy Lewis & the News - Patrick Bateman: American Psycho
So he is a bad ass guy with no real powers
Overall Grade B-
Who did I miss?
