Best Action Hero: Jack Bauer, Jason Bourne, or James Bond?
Best Action Star: Jason Bourne, Jack Bauer, or James Bond?
Vote Below
There is not a movie or TV show with Jason Bourne, Jack Bauer, or James Bond that I have not seen. I refer to them as the great JB triumvirate.
It cannot be a coincidence that all of their initials are JB. James Bond obviously came first. And when Robert Ludlum was writing the Bourne Series, he probably subconsciously chose the JB initials because he was 007 fanatic. And, a few years back, when they named Jack Bauer, I can assure you that this subliminally factored in.
So, now you need to decide. Who’s the best of the JB’s? Who would win in a fight? Who gets the hottest girls? Who has the best action sequences? Who’s the coolest? Factor everything in and vote now (if you would like to articulate your vote, use the comments below):

[…] a little 24.
[…] you look at the address bar on this page, it comes in this form:
this was a tough one, considering…
Bond was the origional, how can you not vote for the origional.
Bourne would definately win in a fight over any of them,
But…
Bauer is the coolest, SOB on the plannet… the guy has cheated death more times than i can count, and thus gets my vote as the #1 JB

i know you´d say “shall we watch another 24″? but i think that bourne is the coolest, he definitely fights!!!
Well as I casted my vote to James Bond, for his long-time legacy to all the movies & dramas he appeared in the passed.. James Bond has quite a history behind him for what he has done in his entire Acting Career..
I won’t argue though that, Jack Bauer (Kiefer Southerland) though, has a history behind his legacy as well, but for “24″ he has probably made the “BEST” TV Show Drama in TV history..
The way “24″ was to me, appeared so “GREATFULLY” “SOPHISTICATED” of all time, and with how technically & psychologically, how he could make such happenings that in our news that we commonly read today is just “PHENOMINAL” yet how he created such a show to be as attractive as it was, mainly I think for what he cast acted in the show of “24″ was things for us to see in many more ways than one, between today and the future yet to come, and that’s just what he did…
I don’t know of a new TV show drama like that will ever fill in the holes of what “24″ was, and his good thinking to end the show on a high note, which is few of so many other shows, like of other shows, either they went not long enough, or too long.. But how Kiefer Southerland (Jack Bauer) how he done it, had to be a very well created show, to end just on the high note.. But there were 2 other shows that ended like that too, back in history, and that was “DUKES OF HAZARD” & “CHEERS” only the 2 others I knew that started and ended on high notes, and now “24″ that sure takes a lot of work and dedication to make a TV show series start & end on a “HIGH NOTE” anyways Kiefer all the best in ur upcoming future movie making of urself, My very Best to you

ok guys, james bond has been entertaining and thrilling the world with action for a long time, jack bauer is probably the most stressed guy in the universe, well for a while at least, now his like “what? ure gonna torture me? ok go ahead”, and we all wondered “what wil bourne find next?”.
if i had to choose between them ill choose jack, the choices jack had to deal with and the things he came up with give him the first place as the best JB
but the title says “Best Action Hero”, JHON MCLAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!, come on guys i really like the heroes u mentioned, but the best action movies to date are the die hard films
MCLAIN Kicks ASSSS
I’m a fan of all three.
Jack Bauer is badass because he knows how criminals think and makes decision on the fly. But what makes him dangerous is his contacts/people he knows, his knowledge of weaponry and the terrorist mind. He has the CTU division at his dispense and frequently talks with the President. Out the these three Bauer has the best resources and is definitely the best leader.
James Bond is just cool and is tough. He’s very good with technology and is the luckiest SOB on the planet. The new James Bond can fight and beat some ass. He gets the women and always plays it cool. By far, James Bond would be the coolest of the three to be… just because he gets the women.
Jason Bourne is one of a kind. He’s a genius with photographic memory and unmatched knowledge of martial arts and weaponry. The government spent millions of dollars training him. He came to the US with no money, no weapons, no resources, no friends and took on the US government by himself and won. He knows how to operate technology and kill using the least amount of time and energy. If your hiding he’ll find you, if your running he’ll snipe you, if you fight him he’ll break your bones but most likely you’ll never see him coming and you’ll be dead. Bourne was trained not to be seen and make assassinations look like accidents. Bourne is not the best leader or the coolest nor does he get the most women but he is the most interesting and the most deadly.
If all three of these guys were fighting against each other, Bond and Bauer wouldn’t stand a chance unless they work together and come prepared with their technology and resources. But still my money would be on Bourne.
