Line #65 SirSwearsALot/LiveActionFilms


1	* The entire ''Film/TwentyOneJumpStreet'' film series is such an epic swear-fest that it's almost easier to list characters that cuss all the time than it is to name ones that don't. However, there is still no one else that can match the proficiency of the well-oiled swearing machine that is Captain Dickson.
2	* Kyle in ''Film/FiftyFifty2011'', although considering he's played by Creator/SethRogen, this probably doesn't surprise anyone.
3	* A good amount of the characters in ''Film/{{Aliens}}'' swear at some point or another, but Hudson in particular is a raging whirlwind of profanity. Hudson's dialogue alone accounts for almost two-thirds of all F-bombs dropped in the film.
4	* [[JerkJock Steve Stifler]] from the ''Film/AmericanPie'' series:
5	-->'''Stifler:''' Observe the fucking Stifmeister. What is his defining characteristic?\
6	'''Jim:''' He uses the 'F' word excessively.\
7	'''Stifler:''' ''[genuinely touched]'' Thanks, man.
8	* [[TheHero Marty McFly]] from ''Film/BackToTheFuture1'' is noticeably more foul-mouthed than everyone else in the film[[note]]due to Profanity Marching On between the 1950s and the 1980s, mostly[[/note]], with "damn" and "hell" being regular parts of his vocabulary. He even tries to get others to do it more.
9	-->'''George:''' You really think I ought to swear?\
10	'''Marty:''' Yes god damn it George, swear!
11	* Several characters in ''Film/BadSanta'', but [[DepravedDwarf Marcus]] tops all of them.
12	-->'''Marcus:''' Sketch it up, you fucking moron. Fucking Leonardo [=DaVinci=].\
13	'''Gin:''' ''[angrily]'' What'd you call me, thigh-high?\
14	'''Marcus:''' I called you a ''fucking'' guinea homo from the 15th ''fucking'' century, you ''dickhead''!
15	* The Dude and Walter in ''Film/TheBigLebowski'':
16	-->'''[[LemonyNarrator The Stranger]]:''' Do you have to use so many cuss words?\
17	'''The Dude:''' [[IResembleThatRemark What the fuck are you talking about]]?\
18	'''Walter:''' Do you see what happens, Larry when you ''FUCK A STRANGER IN THE ASS!?!''
19	* [[BigBad Frank Booth]] from ''Film/BlueVelvet'' who drops F-bombs at least once per sentence. Made more apparent in that he is the only character in the film to use the word (besides a character who does it at Frank's request).
20	* Osbourne Cox from ''Film/BurnAfterReading'', who is responsible for approximately half of the F-words in the entire film. Unlike other examples, he only curses when he's angry but since he has a HairTriggerTemper, this happens almost all the time.
21	* Ralphie's dad from ''Film/AChristmasStory'', though it's mostly just unintelligible shouting due to censoring.
22	--> '''Adult Ralphie:''' My father worked in profanity the way other artists might work in oils or clay. It was his true medium, a master.
23	* [[Franchise/ChildsPlay Chucky]] has a legendarily foul mouth. He can’t get through a single sentence without swearing. Even his very first lines in the franchise as the doll have him cussing out Andy’s mum.
24	* ''Film/TheCottage'': Tracey, the MafiaPrincess slash kidnapping victim, may look sweet, but her dialogue is approximately half profanity.
25	* Inspector Neilson in ''Film/CradleOfFear'' uses language that would make a sailor blush, and seems incapable of uttering a simple sentence without peppering it with profanities. He does not even moderate his language in front of his boss: even dropping the [[CountryMatters C-bomb]] on one occasion. Fortunately for him, DaChief seems to be remarkably understanding.
26	* ''Every'' sentence spoken by the killer in ''Film/CurseOfTheZodiac'' is laced with profanities.
27	* Wade Wilson in ''[[Film/Deadpool2016 Deadpool]]''.
28	* Everybody swears in ''Film/TheDeparted'', but [[Creator/MarkWahlberg Sgt. Dignam]] hardly says a sentence without using a swear word.
29	-->'''Queenan:''' Staff Sergeant Dignam has a style of his own. I'm afraid we all have to get used to it.
30	* Wikus van de Merwe in ''Film/District9''.
31	* Nino in ''Film/Drive2011''.
32	* Nathan from ''Film/ExMachina'', uses the F word casually and liberally in conversation. Since the other characters hardly swear at all, it really stands out that he swears more than the rest of the cast put together.
33	* Pazuzu in ''Film/TheExorcist'', the demon that takes DemonicPossession of Regan and causes her to scream lots of obscenities.
34	* [[Creator/ReeseWitherspoon Vanessa Lutz]] from ''Film/{{Freeway}}'' who swears in nearly every sentence with a Southern accent. She could be the queen of the trope.
35	-->'''Vanessa Lutz:''' Well, pee in there, motherfucker!\
36	'''Vanessa Lutz:''' Yeah, well, I get claustrophobic sucking strange dick!
37	* Ethel in ''Film/FridayThe13thPartVANewBeginning'', who constantly drops f-bombs.
38	* Gunnery Sergeant Hartman and Animal Mother in ''Film/FullMetalJacket''. The former is a master DrillSergeantNasty who has swearing down to an art form that lets him easily condition insolent new recruits, browbeating them into submission. The latter is a young, gung-ho military brat with a foolish, [[LeeroyJenkins hot-blooded confrontational streak]].
39	* Music/SelenaGomez says even more profanities as Dot in ''Film/TheFundamentalsOfCaring''.
40	* [[Music/SelenaGomez The Kid]] from ''Film/{{Getaway}}''. She says a variety of profanities from damn to shit in nearly every sentence.
41	--> '''The Kid''': Hey, [[FlippingtheBird watch where you're going, asshole!!!]]
42	* Ray "Bones" Barboni in ''Film/GetShorty''. "They say the fuckin' smog is the fuckin' reason you have such beautiful fuckin' sunsets."
43	* ''Film/{{Girlfight}}'': Diana is foul-mouthed, dropping a number of [[PrecisionFStrike f-bombs]] throughout the film. Some other characters are dismayed and try to have her tone this down, but she doesn't.
44	* Zbigniew Religa in ''Film/{{Gods}}''. In one scene, the assistants keep count of his swears during a surgery, calling out "Blackjack!" when he drops his twenty-first one.
45	* ''Film/HappyGilmore'': After he misses a putt, the censor-bleeps can't keep up with him.
46	* Lieutenant Vincent Hanna from the 1995 film ''Film/{{Heat}}''. Not surprising seeing as how he's played by Creator/AlPacino, the same man who gave us Tony Montana from ''Film/Scarface1983''. In fact, this Trope can be applied to ''any'' character played by Pacino starting with ''Scarface''.
47	* ''Film/HeavenlyCreatures'' has John/Nicholas, who says "Damn" a lot.
48	* ''Film/TheHungerGamesCatchingFire'': Johanna Mason dropped the (censored) ClusterFBomb on live TV.
49	* ''Film/InBruges'': Harry peppers every other noun in his speech with a "fucking" adjective.
50	-->"[[LampshadeHanging Geez, he swears a lot, doesn't he?]]"
51	* ''Film/JamesBond'': Sheriff J.W. Pepper from the James Bond installments, ''Film/LiveAndLetDie'' and ''Film/TheManWithTheGoldenGun'' swears noticeably often for any character from a James Bond movie. He even came close to being the first one in the entire series to use the F-word but was censored on a couple of occasions. That honor now belongs to M in ''Film/{{Skyfall}}''.
52	* Roman Moronie in ''Film/JohnnyDangerously'' sends this up.
53	--> "What a ''mouth'' on that guy!"
54	* Hit-Girl from the ''Film/KickAss'' movies, more notable [[FromTheMouthsOfBabes due to her young age]] (12 in the first and 15 in the second). Quite tellingly, in the second movie her guardian had set up a swear jar at the start of it, and by the end, she finished filling ''the second one''.
55	* Almost everyone in ''Film/KingsmanTheSecretService'', even the snobs. Understandable given that the main character hails from a rough part of London.
56	* ''Film/LakePlacid'': Dolores Bickerman, [[PlayingAgainstType/FilmActing played very much against type]] by the late Creator/BettyWhite, is an older widow with a ''very'' colorful volcabulary.
57	* Gawain [=MacSam=] from the remake of ''Film/TheLadykillers2004''. A couple of the one scene characters shown near the beginning such as Weemack and the tv commercial director could qualify as well. Gee, Creator/TheCoenBrothers sure like having these types of characters in their movies, don't they?
58	* ''Film/LittleMissSunshine'' has the grandpa, and later on, [[spoiler: Dwayne, starting when he realizes he's color blind and therefore, can't fly planes. He breaks his vow of silence with an enormous AtomicFBomb, and from there, most of his limited dialogue consists of one small ClusterFBomb after another.]]
59	* ''Film/{{Magnolia}}'':
60	** It's a pretty memorable trait of Tom Cruise's character.
61	** Earl and Linda Partridge are also pretty good examples of this trope, ''especially'' Linda. This is already a movie where a lot of the characters are quite liberal when it comes to using {{Cluster F Bomb}}s, but in just about every scene Linda's in, she exaggerates this trope, which is quite an accomplishment in a movie like that.
62	* ''Film/MainStreetMeats'': When Cherry is riding the tow truck into town at the start of the movie, the radio [=DJ=] she's listening to says a [=LOT=] of words that get bleeped out.
63	* Charlie's "[[ChocolateBaby sons]]" in ''Film/MeMyselfAndIrene'', mainly due to Charlie allowing them to watch Richard Pryor stand-up comedy at a very young age, and Chris Rock stand-up when they are older. Given their intelligence, this is also liberally coupled with SophisticatedAsHell, particularly when they're reading (in ''[[BilingualBonus German]]'') from a helicopter instruction manual.
64	* The Abe Lincoln [[CelebrityImpersonator Impersonator]] in ''Film/MisterLonely''. "I'm Abe Fucking Lincoln!" indeed.
65	* ''Film/MyDaysOfMercy'': Lucy, who swears fairly often, especially in contrast with Mercy, who doesn't.
66	* ''Franchise/ANightmareOnElmStreet'': Freddy Krueger in later films. He especially loves calling his [[MemeticMutation female victims ‘bitch’]]
67	* Inverted in ''Film/TheObjective''. While other characters swear almost constantly, Benjamine Keynes does not utter a single damn, hell, or even goshdarn it in the entire movie, which is impressive considering the psychological trauma he experiences.
68	* Creator/JoePesci: He's this in almost everything he's in. His performances in ''Film/{{Goodfellas}}'' and ''Film/{{Casino}}'' are particularly infamous in this regard. Averted in ''Film/HomeAlone1'' and [[Film/HomeAlone2LostInNewYork its sequel]], appropriately enough; instead of actual swear words, Harry curses in {{Angrish}}--the worst word we actually hear him say is "cojones". Allegedly, director Chris Columbus created a SwearJar to discourage this sort of thing around the child actors, and Pesci was said to have filled it in a ''single day''. In ''The Movies that Made Us'', Columbus recalls that Pesci told him that outside of Martin Scorsese films, he'd usually pick scripts that had as much colorful language possible. Surprisingly downplayed in ''Film/MyCousinVinny'', where, although he does his share of swearing as Vinny, Creator/MarisaTomei (Mona) actually swears more than him.
69	* Precious' mother Mary in ''Film/{{Precious}}''.
70	* Creator/TomCruise is the sole reason for ''Film/RainMan'''s R rating. His character, Charlie Babbitt, is the only one who swears in the movie, which has no significant acts of violence or sex.
71	* ''Film/RamboIV:'' Louis, the leader of the band of mercenaries, is responsible for over half of the movie's profanity.
72	-->'''Louis:''' Look at [[UsefulNotes/ThatSouthEastAsianCountry this fucking place.]] Only a fucking ape would live here. What the ''fuck'' am I doing here?!
73	* In ''Film/ReadyOrNot2019'', none of the adult characters seem inhibited about language, but Grace is by far the foulest-mouthed character. Not that she doesn't have good reason....
74	* Nice Guy Eddie and Mr. Pink in ''Film/ReservoirDogs''.
75	* Hob from ''Film/RoboCop2''. Not one of the biggest examples, but he's a pre-teen kid who benefits from drug dealing and cop killing, so foul language, while surprising considering his age, isn't entirely unexpected.
76	--> '''Hob:''' ''[to [=RoboCop=]]'' Can't shoot a kid, can you, fucker?
77	* Jeff in ''Film/SafetyNotGuaranteed''.
78	* While some of them swear more than others, pretty much every relevant (and non-relevant with enough dialogue) character in the ''Franchise/{{Saw}}'' series has a very colorful language. [[InvertedTrope The one who swears]] ''[[InvertedTrope the least]]'' is Jigsaw himself, John Kramer, and [[PrecisionFStrike when he does it's meant to hit hard]].
79	* Detective David Mills from ''Film/{{Se7en}}''.
80	-->'''Mills:''' '''Fucking''' [[Literature/TheDivineComedy Dante]]! Goddamn {{poetry}}-writing '''[[HeteronormativeCrusader faggot]]'''; piece of '''shit'''! '''Fucker'''!
81	* Don Logan in ''Film/SexyBeast''. The rest of the cast are plenty profane by themselves, but Don leads by a [[CountryMatters country mile]] due to sheer inventiveness ("Honkin' jam-rag fucking spunk-bubble!"), cluster f-bombs in nearly every line, the fact that ''everything in the world'' makes him angry, and - for bonus points - being played by a genuine Sir, [[Creator/BenKingsley Sir Ben Kingsley]].
82	* ''Film/TheShawshankRedemption'' has abundant swearing throughout, but a lot of it comes from Captain Byron Hadley.
83	* In ''Film/ShredderOrpheus'', Axel dishes out a majority of the film's profanity and peppers his sentences with swear words, with other characters cursing only once or not at all. In the second half of the film, Linus frequently curses as he attempts to get Orpheus to move on from Eurydice and go to scheduled gigs, to no avail.
84	* [[Creator/JenniferLawrence Tiffany]] from ''Film/SilverLiningsPlaybook''. It's part of her tough-girl appeal.
85	* ''Film/SnackShack'': 14-year-old AJ and Moose swear profusely when away from their parents, even when manning the snack shack around little kids and parents. At home, AJ gets reprimanded for saying "frick."
86	* ''Franchise/StarWars'':
87	** If C-3P0 is anything to go by, R2-D2 has quite the dirty mouth… er… vocoder. The fact his speech is rendered entirely with beeps has certainly lent itself to MemeticMutation in this regard.
88	** Even more so in ''Franchise/StarWarsLegends'' literature, where astromech droids as a whole have become an [[PlanetOfHats entire… er… race]] of foul-mouthed {{Deadpan Snarker}}s.
89	* Despite her cute looks, Jin-hee from ''Film/{{Sunny}}'' was infamous in her high school for having a strong mouth.
90	* Charles and Cary from ''Film/Super8'', especially Charles. If you pay attention, somewhere between 80 to 90 percent of that language in the film is from these two alone, in large part because of their tendency to drop [[ClusterFBomb Cluster S Bombs]] whenever the gang gets in stressful situations.
91	* In ''Film/{{Transit}}'', Shane Sidwell is a rebellious teenager who swers a lot primarily because it aggravates his father Nate. His mother Robyn's comments indicate that this behaviour may only have started since Nate was released from prison.
92	* People swear in ''Film/TropicThunder'', but Creator/TomCruise's character is possibly the king of this trope. He has a dirtier mouth than [[WesternAnimation/SouthPark Eric Cartman]] and [[Film/TheViewAskewniverse Jay]] put together.
93	-->"First, take a big step back and literally '''''FUCK YOUR OWN FACE!'''''"
94	* Kevin Griswold from ''Film/{{Vacation}}'' the younger son of Rusty who's around 10, constantly drops f-bombs.
95	* In Film/TheViewAskewniverse, [[TheSilentBob Silent Bob]] doesn't talk much, but Jay tends to cuss enough for ''both'' of them.
96	* Terrence Fletcher from ''Film/{{Whiplash}}'' can't seem to voice one sentence in his music class without using foul language. (when he doesn't do so, he's probably screaming [[SadistTeacher given how his method goes]])
97	* Most of Laird Mayhew's sentences from ''Film/WhyHim'' are laced with profanity, which he attributes as a nervous habit.
98	* Justified in ''Film/DemolitionMan'' with John Spartan and Simon Phoenix when they find themselves in the future society of San Angeles, a FalseUtopia where even swearing is banned via the Verbal Morality Statue and enforced by a SinisterSurveillance network. Because the two are FishOutOfTemporalWater, they are unaccustomed to this law and wind up racking a hefty pile of fines throughout the film.
