My search function isn't working here @ work, but I don't remember a thread on this. Kind of cool reading about the different characters that were voted onto this list.

Any characters you feel should be on the list or not be on the list?? Only one I could really think of is Chewbacca, b/c, lets face it, wookies are awesome!!!

# 1 may surprise you, it sure as hell surprised me!!! Happy reading.

Awesome page. I was shocked by #1 as well, I was thinking who could be better then the guy at #2. Also shocked to see so many fantasy/sci-fi characters on there too.

Where did they get that Harry Callahan is a fascist and a racist

This list is such a ****ing joke, I have seen it before.

Jamespic1118 · 01-03-2009, 02:07 PM

Yeah, it is.

1) Because it's broken down onto 100 pages (those page-click *****s).

2) The Tramp is nowhere in the top 100? Right.

assydingo · 01-03-2009, 03:14 PM

21 and 10 should both be higher... 8 is great but shouldn't be top 10

Wow, just got to 24... how the hell is he not higher?

Sloan78 · 01-03-2009, 03:24 PM

This list makes me wanna

Tyler Durden? Tyler Durden? Fight club got reasonably good reviews, but no one saw this flick ($37m box office domestically) and had very little influence on the movie goers psyche.......

Who hasn't seen Fight Club?

I don't think the list is saying what the best movies are based on characters ,it is just rating the most "memorable" character. Maybe? Overall I think the list was good.

Sussudio · 01-03-2009, 06:31 PM

great list, dont agree with the order necessarily but i'm sure it's fairly hard to put together a list of top 100 characters and rank them. surprised that only one superhero made the list, though.

One? I can think of two, Wolverine and Ironman(Tony Stark).

gocougz05 · 01-03-2009, 06:34 PM

What about Benjamin Martin (Mel Gibson in the Patriot)! Unbelievable!!!!

STARSCREAM · 01-03-2009, 06:52 PM

Wow, the #1 spot is bs. Yes, they left off alot of good ones.

Yes to the 2nd I dont mind clicking, but Tyler Durden over Vader and Bond is enough to make any list a joke...Fight Club was not THAT good.
