Serious Heroes in Outdated Science Fiction Movies

Breumaster
Some scifi movies were fascinating at the time of their release and so were their heroes. Some decades passed and the fascination of these movies faded a little, because reality outdated the scenarios in them. But we still love the characters, because they gained the status as a role model of an exemplary hero to the audiences in their time. No matter how we look at those movies today, the actors gave their best to make the movies most interesting.

Which of these actors did or do you like most as a science fiction hero in these roles?

You can also click for the slideshow here. You can pick the hero without reading, the texts are just for remembering more easy.

Please discuss here.
