** Speaking of Hercules movies that were on ''Mystery Science Theater'', Reg Park's portrayal of Hercules in ''Film/HerculesAndTheCaptiveWomen'' - and even more so in the prequel, ''Hercules in the Haunted World'' - is very much along these lines, playing the character as a very jovial, good-natured guy with a mischievous sense of humour, and who just happens to be [[HeroicBuild almost as wide as he is tall]].

* You could argue that El Indio from ''Film/ForAFewDollarsMore'' is a deconstruction of this trope. He laughs all the time, hugs his friends a lot, is enthusiastic and boisterous and runs a band of plucky outlaws out to rob an impenetrable bank against all the odds -- but he's a depraved child-murdering, stalking rapist and his band are all implied to be similarly bad. His happy laughing face gets on his WantedPoster, but he also has a much more evil, violent side to him which causes him to [[BadBoss turn on his own men]]. Lastly, his good moods seem almost maniacal, and are probably induced with drugs.

* Mace Windu, the number two Jedi on the Council (who first appeared in ''Film/ThePhantomMenace'') qualified. He ''loved'' to fight, and given the tempting nature of the Dark Side, this was a dangerous trait for a Jedi to have; as a result, he studied favored Form VII (also known as Juyo or Vaapad) a very difficult and hard to use school of swordplay, that demanded near-unmatched mental discipline and lightsaber control. His concentration was such that he was even able to use certain Dark Side techniques, like [[DangerousForbiddenTechnique Force Crush]], without succumbing to the temptation. (''However'', he was clearly the exception, not the rule.)

* Auda Abu Tayi in ''Film/LawrenceOfArabia'', a ProudWarriorRaceGuy-meets-LoveableRogue Bedouin chief, played by iconic LargeHam Creator/AnthonyQuinn at his most exuberant. The historical Auda also qualified, according to ''Seven Pillars of Wisdom.''
-->"He had married twenty-eight times, had been wounded thirteen times, and in the battles he provoked had seen all his tribesmen hurt, and most of his relation slain. He himself had killed seventy-five men, all Arabs, by his own hand in battle... He saw life as a saga, and all events in it were significant, and all personages in contact with him heroic. His mind was stored with tales of old raids, and epic poems of fights. He had no control over his lips, and was therefore terrible to his own interest, and hurt his friends continually. He spoke of himself in the third person and was so sure of his fame that he loved to shout out stories against himself. At times he seemed taken by a demon of mischief: and yet with all this he was really modest, as simple as a child, direct, honest, kind-hearted, and warmly loved even by those to whom he was most embarrassing - his friends.”
