The criteria: an actor known for a certain role or character type that does a 180 in a film to reveal their badassness.
Their list: Dustin Hoffman in "Straw Dogs" (yep!), Sigourney Weaver in Aliens (really?) and Henry Fonda in "Once Upon A Time In The West" (haven't seen it)
My pick(s): Henry Fonda (There Was A Crooked Man) & Linda Hamilton (T:2)

I read an article once saying that Vin Diesel had been born in the wrong age if he was stuck doing B movies like Babylon AD while James McAvoy got to do Wanted with Jolly Angelina.

Tim Robbins- Arlington Road
Anthony Hopkins- The Edge (yes Hopkins always has a certain gravitas about his roles- but in the Edge HE KILLS A BEAR WITH A STICK). One of my all time favorite movies.
Tom Petty- The Postman
Dan "What one man can do, another can do" Daly

Yes. That's one of the best badass movies by the way.
