Star Trek

River Tam. She kicks everyone's butt in Serenity!

I’m having a tuff time voting for the best (working from the movies)

Aeon I didn’t much like the movie.

Laras big boob bouncing hard to watch anything else on the screen movie

# 6 I watched some of the movie a few weeks ago although was interrupted.

So this leaves me with Tam,Selene, Alice, Riply, The bride, and Sarah

 Tam was an excellent fighting machine and a little wacky

Selene extremely sexy fighting vampire in leather

 Alice from my top zombie movies of all time

Ripley from my top movies of all time

The bride another top movie of mine revenge is sweet.

Sarah the best regular person thrown into the end of the world sagas

Tam was great and she kicks some series booty but I like Resident Evil much more than Serenity. Selene makes one of the best vampires I’ve seen and the movies are well done but I’ll have to say I liked resident Evil more than Underworld. Which brings me to Ripley she fought off the aliens with her wits and courage surpassing the special trained military unit I loved the movies and her sense of never giving up. Kill bill was a great revenge movie the bride was incredible with a sword I would still choose Alice over her. Finely I get to Sarah she was a great character strong and resilient but I like the Alice character more than Sarah although not to be confused with likening one movie over another. This brings me to Alice or Ripley  hmmmmmm

Good poll. I'll have to give it some thought. Not any of the above, I don't think but for now the ones that come to mind: Kira Nerys from DS9 of course, and also I really liked Ayla in Clan of the Cave Bear (book, not movie) but was disappointed with its sequel, Valley of the Horses.

Alice of Res Evil!

Barbarella, excellent fashion sense.

Out of that list, I have to say Sarah Connor.  I just got done watching the "Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles" and couldn't stop thinking of what she was doing in preparing her child - teaching him the skills necessary to fight and lead.  Her self sacrifice makes her a hero in my books.

Good point. And is it Terminator 1 Linda Hamilton or Terminator 2 Linda Hamilton? -- cos they seemed like completely different characters too.

Um... who are these people? Lara Croft is no more than a name for me, the rest I´ve never even heard of.

My favourite lady hero would be Mma Ramotswe from The No. 1 Ladies´ Detective Agency

Both, actually. Though the character was portrayed by an American: Jill Scott.

Ripley.

Agent 99     

Oh yes thanks for that one, Jack. Slightly more of a Poirot fan meself, but would never have thought to include Miss Marple in all of this. She's great. And Agatha Christie was a fantastic writer.

Sarah Jane Smith. Lis Sladen may be gone, but she'll never be forgotten.
