Sounds like Hudson to me...
It really doesn't. Hudson was macho, sure, but the rest of the group was calling him on it and putting him in his place constantly.
"You ever been mistaken for a man?" - Hudson
"No. Have you?" - Vasquez
"Sir, how do I get outta this chicken shit outfit?" - Hudson
"You secure that shit Hudson." - Apone
"We got nukes, knives, sharpsticks...!" - Hudson
"knock it off, Hudson!" - Apone
"Smoking or non-smoking?" - Hudson
"Just tell me what you're scanning for, private." - Gorman
"Yeah man, but it's a dry heat." - Hudson
"Knock it off, Hudson." - Apone
"Oh that's great. That's just ****ing great man. Now what the **** are we supposed to do? This is some really shit now man!" - Hudson
"You finished?" - Hicks
"What are we gonna do!?" - Hudson
"Maybe we could build a fire, sing a couple of songs, why don't we try that?!" - Burke
"Well why don't you put her in charge!?" - Hudson
"Hudson! Listen to me; Just deal with it, because i'm sick of your bullshit." - Ripley
"It ain't half fair man!" - Hudson
"Hudson give us a break!" - Vasquez
"Think of what!? We're ****ed! We're doomed!" - Hudson
"SHUT UP!" - Hicks
I'm seeing no indication anyone is telling this immature fool to shut his macho, arrogant, douche baggery up.
I have no real view on the character or the performance yet - not enough to go on.
But I love Bill Paxton - he was perfect as Hudson. I really liked the way they took him past the edge where you saw he was struggling with real fear and even a degree of cowardice in the face of the unknown. But he died a man! Bill always does in the end.
I will say that I'm expecting both Holloway and Shaw to have their characters worldview challenged and changed, and I do hope LMG is up to the task as I know nothing about him as an actor vs the rest of the main cast who are all more than good enough to pass muster.
