And the most badass movie dad is…
Dude won by a mile, and after all the necks he chopped across the globe to rescue his daughter from becoming another black market sex slave, he deserves it. Who knew Oskar Schindler was such a stone-cold badass?

I would have considered John McCain if you had used a picture from the 4th movie, but he had hair in your shot-it was the first movie and Lucy McCain only had one shot to a camera saying Come Home. WTF?
But yeah, Taken was boss.
John McCain? Definitely more batshit than badass when it comes to dads. But, yeah, McClane’s parentage has never played a very big part on his terribly unlucky life of vigilante law enforcement.
And Taken was kind of boss, and a lot of that is ’cause of Neeson.
Hey Aiden, Just wanted to remind you about the “Morality Bites” blogothon kicking off 2moro, June 29th. Would love your input. Here’s a link http://bit.ly/iHvWBH. Cheers, Ronan.
p.s Taken was pants dude.
Oh, man. Totally dropped the ball on this one. Sorry dude, sounded awesome. Keep me in the loop about any other of these wonderful events going on on your end. Love me some memes.
And Taken was alright, at least it established Neeson as a total badass.
