My top ten favorite fictional characters
- tagged by Cloudya
1. Atticus Finch - To Kill a Mockingbird - My father figure. Not even joking
2. Santa Claus
3. Kilgore Trout - Breakfast of Champions - "Make me young, make me young, make me young!”
4. Roy Batty - Blade Runner - "All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die."
5. Anton Chigurh - No Country For Old Men - "You know what date is on this coin? 1958. It's been traveling twenty-two years to get here. And now it's here. And it's either heads or tails. And you have to say. Call it."
6. Shelley "The Machine" Levene - Glengarry Glen Ross - Tragic, but proud. I would take WAY too long to describe why I love him, specifically Jack Lemmon's portrayal.
7. Johnny Cade - The Ousiders - After what Johnny goes through and still sees the good in people? A lot of my optimism comes from him.
8. Han Solo - Star Wars - Any guy worth his salt wishes he was Han Solo.
9. Elly Kedward - The Blair Witch Project - Say what you want about the movie now that it's been years, but never has a character never seen ever terrified me into actually, as an ADULT, check closets or under the bed at night.
10. The Joker - Heath Ledger Portrayal - Frightening and mysterious, who barely edges out Tyler Durden because he perfected the dark logical nature that can come behind the idea of chaos.
