Let me show ya somethin!!!
This is not specifically a top 1, top 5 or top 10. I picked 4 because I couldn't pick a winner between any of them. I couldn't even knock it down to a top 3. Choose as many or as few as you like.
Thread is simple. Who are your favorite movie character(s)? I leave no guidelines specifically designating why. My list has some just because they're cool, others because they're such likeable characters. I leave it to you why you like them so much.
This list is in no particular order:
Predator (Predator): The Predator is just a bad motherfucker. He hunts people for sport, but still lives by a code. He won't kill you if you are unarmed or in a diminished capacity (See: Wayland's one free pass in AVP). He's extremely mysterious (moreso in the first movie - by far the best) as you know very little about him. He's got all these cool weapons, but still likes to challenge his biggest rival in the movie to a straight up fight.
George Jung (Blow): Sure he's a drug dealer. That doesn't change the fact that he's easily one of the most likeable guys ever. I like his character so much that I actually have a hard time watching the 2nd half of the movie because of him getting set up.
Mitch Henessey (The Long Kiss Goodnight): This movie is about Jason Bourne before Jason Bourne. Same premise essentially. Except the amnesiac spy is played by Geena Davis. This movie, without Samuel L. Jackson as Mitch Henessey, is average. But his character is so damn funny I love this movie. He's an ex cop, ex con, now cheap PI. As he's doing work trying to figure out about Geena Davis' life before her amnesia he gets caught up in all the fireworks that ensue. The problem is he's fairly useless (until the end) and he knows it. This part is displayed hilariously as she pushes him out of a vehicle (saying he's useless no less) and he just lays in the middle of the street and lights a cigarette. And I'll always love the "balls hurt" line.
If you haven't seen this movie, you should watch it solely for his character. Side note: I've always wondered if that's where our main movies guy John Connor got his old screen name.
Freddy Krueger (A Nightmare on Elm St): My love for this character is pretty well documented on here. I've always loved his blend of scary, creepy and humor. He obviously evolved over the series, but I've always enjoyed him. And I still maintain he owns the best last line before a kill ever.
