Alex was so much cooler than Chad

agreed

I agree with the majority here in that Alex was a lot cooler than Chad. By that I mean film-cool obviously. I wouldn't expect him to be a nice guy to know in the real world! He has an edge about him, for sure.

Chad is from a much more pampered, soft lifestyle, so it is no surprise. He's badass in his own way with his martial arts, but in my opinion not as tough as Alex. When they're fighting each other Alex has the best of it, despite being drunk! When Frank comes in to break it up Chad is getting wailed on and only standing because of a post propping him up.

Also, Alex didn't mind getting his hands dirty, evidenced by his love of inserting fists into people's faces, whereas effiminate Chad didn't like the embarrassment of broken nails, so preferred to kick like a girl.

Good point too about the names - Chad is definitely tougher sounding and when recounting the film, it always takes me a split second to remind myself that Chad is the camper of the two.

I blame the parents. They should know which identical baby is going to become the more manlier of the two BEFORE they get murdered, damnit!

When you're fighting a weasel, he's bigger than a man.
