Another Monday and time for a new question. Cinema has produced so many amazing characters through the years, some which have become iconic. So today I want to ask you a very simple question:
Who is your favorite movie character?
Picking only one was quite difficult but I think I would have to go with Indiana Jones, mainly because it is a character who is smart, is cool when he is out on an adventure and also offers lots to laugh about.
Oh man, that is tough. There’s so many. If I have to pick one…. it’d be… The Dude.
Here’s a guy that just likes to have a simple life. He wants to smoke some weed. He wants to drink White Russians. He likes to go bowling with his pals. Doesn’t really want much. After all, all he wanted was his rug back.
Yeah, there are so many great ones to choose from. The Dude was one I was expecting to be named š
Rick Blaine, Casablanca.
Classic character š
Princess Leia.
Sexy, and doesn’t take any crap.
Hahaha, excellent choice Rodney.
It’s going to have to be Heath Ledger’s Joker. Mesmerising, and a very interesting, psychologically disturbed character.
Yeah, one of those characters that stays with you.
Man that’s a tough question! I’m sure plenty more will pop into my head at some point but right now I want to say Wayne Campbell from Wayne’s World. In fact, Garth is pretty cool too!
I know it is…only picking one really is impossible. That really is an unexpected choice. It’s been way too long since I saw the movie…
All time, Han Solo.
Sub-Groups:
Old School – Rick Blaine, “Casablanca”
70s – Michael Corleone, “Godfather Part I & II”
Current – The Joker, “The Dark Knight”
Nice breakdown in categories!
Travis Bickle from Taxi Driver for me. The finest character De Niro has played.
Classic role…don’t know yet if I would call that my favorite De Niro performance though.
Incredibly hard question!
Maximus – Gladiator
Sarah Connor – Terminator
Rocky Balboa
Indiana Jonea
Off the top of my head!
Excellent choices Jaina, but if you were only allowed one….which of those would you pick?
TOUGH choice. Today, it’s going to be Maximus. Ask me tomorrow… and it’ll be a different answer š
Alright, well I’l settle for that answer then….today š
Impossible to narrow down to 10, let alone one! But if I absolutely must go with just one, I’d go with Elinor from Sense & Sensibility because she’s a character I wish I could be friends with in real life.
Well, I will try to do just that pretty soon š
As you know I have not seen Sense & Sensibility, so I don’t know the character. But wanting to be friends with a character sounds that one has been fleshed out very well.
Wow this is difficult! Maybe Holly Golightly from Breakfast at Tiffany’s? But Rick from Casablanca is also a great choice!
I will try to finally see Breakfast this year…been on my to watch list for years, but have not come around to seeing it yet!
Probably Han Solo/ Indiana Jones but that is without giving it too much thought. It is a hard question!
It is, but Harrison Ford wins in your book š
Chief Brody from Jaws – the man who is afraid of the sea yet lives on a small island and ultimately conquers his fear to beat the monster.
Hahaha, yeah that is a great pick.
Holly Golightly. Gilbert Grape. Aragorn. Tracy Lord. The first few that came to mind. It’s a question I’ll be thinking about for the rest of the night though!
Always nice when a question like this makes you wonder which is at the top of your list.
Oh my goodness! Awesome article dude! Many thanks, However I am going through issues with your RSS. I don’t know why I am unable to join it. Is there anyone else having the same RSS issues? Anybody who knows the answer will you kindly respond? Thanx!!
