Who was more badazz: Ellen Ripley or Sarah Connor?

I have given my 2 weeks notice at work, and it's Friday before a holiday weekend. I'm not terribly busy. I have time to ponder important, existential questions such as this.

Who would you rather have on your side during a zombie/alien/robot apocalypse?

This man did not include an option fpor carrots, therefor his poll is invalid.

Scarlett Johansson is a perfect alternative carrots, however. Both are good for your eyes.

Topic is too serious for that. Robot zombie aliens are no laughing matter.

Ultimately Conor would have the edge, but Ripley had the better line in Aliens - "Get away from her you B****" - and that tipped me toward her.

Plus, Ripley didn't have the extensive military training that Conor had, yet was able to survive three movies against an unimaginably deadly foe, against Conor's two. And she really only fought in one.

Sarah Connor. The people SHE was protecting lived.

Ripley survived--briefly--through a short series of terrifying events, less than a couple year's subjective time, and then unsuccessfully commited suicide. Sarah Connor raised the next generation of humanity's freedom-fighters. Ergo, Sarah Connor is the more bada$$.

Yeah, but that's not Ripley's fault..... Blame that on the stupid screenwriters!

Not her baby daddy. On that note, how do you send your friend back in time to create you in the future? What?

Ripley is sexier, IMO, but I am a big fan of S. Weaver.
