Honorable mention for a character i doubt anyone knows or has heard off - Jack Deth from the Trancers movie franchise. Epic 80's B-Movie Sci-fi.

I could think of a lot more probably.

ETA - Also yeah, Sarah Connor is kickass

Brenda Blethyn was beaten to the Oscar for best actress by Frances McDormand in Fargo. Both great performances from that year along with Emily Watson in Breaking the waves. But as great as McDormand was, for me Blethyn should have won the Oscar. Blethyn did take the Golden Globe and the Bafta that year, she should have got the full house with the Oscar.

Kathy Bates as Annie Wilkes is another fantastic character winning many top awards.

Rocky Balboa
T-800, aka the Terminator
Darth Vader
Marty McFly
Austin Powers
Wayne Campbell
Hannibal Lecter
Ron Burgundy
Michael Corleone
James Bond

In no particular order and giving the actors/ actresses names in some films cos I can't remember the character lol.

Sandy in Grease
Rizzo in Grease
Baby in Dirty Dancing
Vivienne in Pretty Woman
Julia Roberts in Mystic Pizza
Julia Roberts in My Best Friend's wedding
