Ellen Ripley, no contest.
No superpowers, no special training, no special technology. Simply the wisdom to see a job that needs done and the bravery and determination to do it.
Her first interactions with newt were so soft too. Really amazing character played by the perfect actress for the role.
Aliens is my favourite movie of all time.
Newt was badass too.
Hudson: Seventeen DAYS!? Hey man, I don't wanna rain on your parade, but we're not gonna last seventeen HOURS!!! Those things are gonna come in here just like they did before! And they're gonna come in here AND THEY'RE GONNA GET US!!!
Ripley: Hudson! This little girl survived longer than that with no weapons and no training!
Newt: [salutes]
I can hear his voice so clearly reading that. :D
