Tommy Lee
  • TV Show/Movie Appeared: Best of the Best (1989)
    Best of the Best 2 (1993)
    Best of the Best 3 (1996)
    Best of the Best 4 (1998)
  • Actor/Actress: Philip Rhee
  • Played For:: U.S.A.
  • Why you should vote:: There are very few Martial Arts nominees here.
  • Why you should not vote:: Seriously, couldn’t they come up with a better (not metal) name for the guy?
  • So how many of you clicked here expecting to see a well-endowed Heavy Metal drummer? Here is guessing that the producers of “Best of the Best” were Motley Crue fans, but we also wager that they watched a lot of early Chinese Kung Fu films where the hero avenges the death of his father/teacher/brother or whoever.

    This is what we have here, where Tommy (again not the drummer) avenges his brother who died in a Tae Kwon Do match against a Korean opponent, and oh who cares? It is a shallow role, (which gets shallower with each sequel) and it doesn’t matter because there is a lot of fighting, which is all anyone wants to see. That could be enough for a few votes here…especially since Frank Dux doesn’t qualify.
