Lady Seahawke Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Lucy Lawless Linda Hamilton ahhhh tis on the tip of me tongue.....what was the lass's name that played in Alien? anyone remember? are the three that come immediately to mind. Lady Cassandra Seahawke Captain of SIREN'S RESURRECTION, Her fleet JAGUAR'S SPIRIT, ROARING LION , SEA WITCH AND RED VIXEN For she, her captains and their crews are.... ...Amazon by Blood... ...... Warrior by Nature...... ............Pirate by Trade............ If'n ye hear ta Trill ye sure to know tat yer end be near...
Cap'n Coyote Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 That would be the talented Sigourney Weaver. Rumors of my death were right on the money.
Lady Seahawke Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 many thanks captn...the scene where she be tellin the alien to "get away from her bitch" is in me mind classic....love the scene. Lady Cassandra Seahawke Captain of SIREN'S RESURRECTION, Her fleet JAGUAR'S SPIRIT, ROARING LION , SEA WITCH AND RED VIXEN For she, her captains and their crews are.... ...Amazon by Blood... ...... Warrior by Nature...... ............Pirate by Trade............ If'n ye hear ta Trill ye sure to know tat yer end be near...
Darkmalkin Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Geena Davis. And me, o' course. The Pyromaniac Pirate
Iron Bess Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 (Raise'n me cutlass aloft in salute...) Herself, the Grace O'Malley Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!
"Broadside" Long Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Don't forget Anne Bonny and Mary Read, two tough women pyrates. Arrrr! Broadside Every normal person must be tempted at times to spit upon his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats! - Lucanus
Daniel Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 I'm assuming movie stars are the main focus here. Maureen O'Hara was the pirate and generalyy swashbckling wench nonpareil. Against All Flags, The Black Swan, and At Sword's Point prove it. Too bad her movies were never as good as she was. Geena Davis would be second. Morgan the Pirate is a laughably bad movie, but Chelo Alonso with her wild dancing was certainly the most memorable part of it. Keira Knightley, of course, is beautiful; she needs to be more piratical though. That's about all the movie stars I can name. But I'll match the stars of The Cutlass' Daughters - Maureen MacLinden, Mary Tyrconnell, Gwendolyn Rivermere, Celeste l'Arromanchienne, Djongila, and Lily Ashton - up against any other pirate wenches from the world of film and fiction.
Redd Oktober Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Well hmmm..... -Geena Davis (o' course...Redd has a thing fer the dark haired ladies) -Jane Seymour (Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger) -Madeline Kahn (Mrs. Beard in Yellowbeard) -Caroline Munro (Golden Voyage of Sinbad) and...not so much fer looks...but true pirates they be! -Miss Piggy! -Anne Ramsey! YARRR! The Oktober be silent now! Just call me "REDD!"
Rumba Rue Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Hmmmm, me name's there on that list ....somewhere.... Oh well, I never tell me secrets. RumbaRue Woman Eentitled to Nights of Complete Happiness
darkRose Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Ahhhh Mateys ...we be talkin Famous....er...Infamous..? The Enigmatic Rogue...and may always be<br /> <br /> "I kissed her... once with passion... once with love... and told her good bye"
Red Maria Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 To name a few.... Artemisia of Halicarnassus Maureen O'Hara (who is alive & well & living in the Caribbean) Granuaile N'Malley aka Grace O'Malley Segourney Weaver Anne Bonney Mary Read Chang I Sao Thelma & Louise Mother Rackett Iron Bess
Capt Grey Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Aye! Miss Piggy be a proper pirate wench! She be lurin' that frog close with all her porcine charm, then WHAM! he be "sailin'" across the deck. Maureen O'Hara be one o'me favorite actresses. It takes quite a woman to play opposite John Wayne - and that she did in many a film. Me favorite bein' The Quiet Man. Captain, we always knew you were a whoopsie. Rumors of my death are entirely premature.
Mr.Bubbles Posted October 16, 2003 Author Posted October 16, 2003 All fine wenches but the best has to be Carrie-Anne Moss, she woulda made a fine pyrate back the day.
Lucky Penny Hawkings Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Lara Croft? I can think of at least two good reasons why I think she has pirate blood in her. -Watch her handle a gun. -She trots the globe going after shiny things (treasure!) "Don't hate me because I'm beautiful. Hate me because I am robbing you, tossing you overboard, and stealing your ship!" -the only thing more dangerous than her.. is her needle-
Mr.Bubbles Posted October 16, 2003 Author Posted October 16, 2003 Nay, she's Trinity of the Matrix series, if that was your question.
Scupper Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Ah A good question indeed! It be a tie with all the fine wenches from this here port. (BOWS) Then, Caroline Munro from The Golden Voyages of Sinbad Lucy Lawless from Xena Maureen O'Hara That would be my order. Scupper "That's the navy for you. Rum in the scuppers today. Blood in the scuppers tomorrow."Thrist is a shameless disease. So here's to a shameful cure!"Loyalty, honesty and directness are traits I admire. Insecurity, snipes and disrespect I will not tolerate in the least."
the Royaliste Posted October 17, 2003 Posted October 17, 2003 Madeline Stowe in 'Last of the Mohiicans'..offa the top 'o me head...........or
AliasGraceO'Malley Posted October 17, 2003 Posted October 17, 2003 Karen Allen, the woman who was in the first Indiana Jones movie. She could out-drink anybody, and could put up a fight.
Hawkyns Posted October 17, 2003 Posted October 17, 2003 Ah well, Catherine Zeta Jones in Mask of Zorro and Gwyneth Paltrow in Shakespeare in Love would get my votes for top two. Got to think a bit more beyond that. Hawkyns Cannon add dignity to what otherwise would be merely an ugly brawl I do what I do for my own reasons. I do not require anyone to follow me. I do not require society's approval for my actions or beliefs. if I am to be judged, let me be judged in the pure light of history, not the harsh glare of modern trends.
Blackeye Susan Posted October 17, 2003 Posted October 17, 2003 I'll put me own vote in fer Angela Lansbury. Oh sure she may look like a sweet old dame, but she's played some evil ladies in her time. So for her roles of Ruth(Pirates of Penzance), Mrs Lovitts(Sweeney Todd) and the Lady Gwendolyn(Court Jester) and hell why not...also the voice of Mommy Fortuna in the animated Last Unicorn...I raise me hat to yeh from one innocent lookin' evil lady to another. -Blackeye Susan

Rosalinda Posted October 17, 2003 Posted October 17, 2003 Jessica Lange... Arrrr, if I were a man, I would find her delightful to look at. A true beauty in my mind and a brilliant actor. And linked to Sam Shepard... who's close friends with Bob Dylan... they keep good company, eh? And lest we forget Holly Hunter? Feisty, pretty, talented, TEXAN! Neither of these lasses have been in a pirate flick, but they could be, I think.
the Royaliste Posted October 17, 2003 Posted October 17, 2003 Nor you, but...................................................
Saucy Kate Posted October 17, 2003 Posted October 17, 2003 Though I've never seen her in any pirate films, I'd have to say the sexy, smouldering, sometimes-sinister Ava Gardner. And Rita Hayworth- a saucy lass! And I'd argue up hill and down dale for Lauren Bacall- she can keep a lad in order! :)
