You're Not Really a Bug Killer Unless You Have a Ridiculous Tattoo


It's amazing how much character development movies and TV shows manage to cram into a little ink. In fact, it's time we took a look at the many black and blue markings across our favorites characters' faces, backs, arms and bodies. Leeloo from The 5th Element: Milla Jovovich's character is the savior of the whole planet, and you can tell just from looking at her wrist. And of course, her dotted markings also match the markings on the movie's ever-important stones. Tattoo from Elektra Chris Ackerman's character's colorful belly buddies could come alive, off of his skin, and do a lot of damage. Obviously he's not the only tattooed man with powers. There's a Green Lantern villain, the Illustrated Man, who's a classic. We may actually be seeing Abel Tarrant the Tattooed Man in the Green Arrow's new flix Supermax Fox from Wanted Even though Angelina Jolie was pretty tatted up before playing the role of hottie assassin in Wanted, she added on even more wordy tattoos to her arms, hands and back. Guess which ones are real haha. The vampire tatt from Blade. I think that if I ever saw someone with the familiar tattoo from the Blade movies we would become fast friends. While Wesley Snipes had some pretty serious shoulder markings around his upper half, nothing could beat the secret society "friends of the vampires" sign. Enola from Waterworld when the world is flooded and you spend your days on a boat drinking your own urine, look for the girl with the map on her back. The Japanese tattoo, that was NEVER explained, apparently held the key to dry land. Scully from X Files Scully gets a tattoo because she went through a thing. Before finding out that her buddy's tattoo controlled his actions she got a Celtic Ouroboros slapped on her back. Lana Lang from Smallville Lana's witchy tattoo connected her, not only to a bad lady with evil intentions, but to the Krypton Stones as well. Jessica Sanders from Heroes The symbol which plagues all the super humans is tattooed onto Jessica's back, and is half of the symbol of the evil company Pinehearst. Darth Maul from Star Wars : Episode I - The Phantom Menace Before Darthy became an evil Sith he was just a red little fool, and then Sidious got his hands on him. Chakotay from Star Trek Voyager Noble Chakotay's face markings aren't explained until the "Tattoo" episode where you learn that others have the same style and design. Chakotay's tatts are to honor his father. Rico Dizz And The Rest Of 'EmStarship Troopers Because you're not really a bug killer unless you have a ridiculous tattoo, best part is during the futuristic laser branding scene they throw alcohol all over his freshly zapped skin, ha =]. Denton Van Zan from Reign of Fire Matthew McConaughey's ridiculous dragon fighting attitudes were eclipsed only by his body armor of dragon tatts, he totally stole Clooney's look from Dusk Till Dawn though...UGH! Snake from Escape From New York Fantastic character, terrible, horrible "snake in my pants" tattoo. How many times do you have to make the "do you want to see my trouser snake" joke, just for getting that tattoo? The Doctor from Doctor Who Jon Pertwee sported a cool tatt in his first appearance as the “Doctor”..now do tattoos stay after you regenerate lollll? And no as much as I wanted to talk about Constantine, From Dusk Till Dawn and Harry Potter tattoos buttt I think you get the pictureee. Haha =]
