Top/Bottom 5 Movie Roles - Kurt Russell

Here is where I pick a random actor or actress's Top 5 and Bottom 5 Movie Roles (I assume the post title gave that away).  This won't necessarily be the chosen actor or actress's best roles, but a combination of their best and my favorite.  In other words, if there is a tie, I'll go with my favorite.  Also, I won't actually be ranking them, they will be in a random order.  Lastly, this isn't these actor's or actress's best movies, but their best characters.  Let's get started:

Kurt Russell

Top 8

Jack Burton, Big Trouble in Little China - I love, love, love this movie.  Is it stupid?  Yup.  Does it make any sense?  Nope.  And yet, I still love, love, love it.
Snake Plissken, Escape From New York - Go watch this movie again because the "futuristic" technology is hilariously crappy.  Other than that, Kurt made an incredible Snake.
R.J. MacReady, The Thing - I'm going to admit that I've never actually seen this movie, but it's a cult classic and therefore, it had to make the list.
Lt. Gabriel Cash, Tango & Cash - Stupid movie?  Absolutely.  But damn it, I watch it every time it's on for some reason.
Captain Ron, Captain Ron - Another dumb movie that I still thought was entertaining.  Maybe Kurt Russell is just that good.
Wyatt Earp, Tombstone - Sure, Val Kilmer stole this film, but Kurt Russell was still solid as one of America's greatest Western heroes.
Col. Jack O'Neil, Stargate - Recently, I saw Kurt play in a Pro-Am Golf Tournament and he is looking pretty old.  What does that have to do with Stargate?  Nothing.  Suck it.
Michael Zane, 3000 Miles to Graceland - This movie was pretty bad, Elvis impersonators robbing a casino sounds like a good idea on paper, but somehow they screwed it up.  But I still thought that Kurt Russell and Kevin Costner were pretty good in it.

Bottom 5

Shockingly, other than his second stint as Snake Plissken in Escape From LA, he really hasn't had any movies roles that I didn't like.  Seriously, he has had a damn solid career and I couldn't find enough characters to make a full Bottom 5 list, so I didn't.
