Favourite Characters

Is there no favourite character thread if there is point me to it, if there isnt here it is
maybe if we talk about why we like them and ask other people why they like theres, this wont become stagnant like most other favourite threads. list as many as you want and maybe a few things you like about them...
heres mine:
*Bill the Butcher - a very different character to begin with but DDL's acting made him incredible
*William Wallace - battle-pig gives mel the extra edge
*Brendan Gleesons characters - Frank (28 days later) Monk (Gangs) and Hamish (Braveheart) he is one of the finest actors around
*Aragorn, Theoden, Gandalf, Boromir, Gollum and the Hobbits - ill probably just be repeating myself here.
* Chingachgook and Uncas from Last of the Mohicans - the perfect father and son team
*Lee Holloway from Secratary - she's such a beautiful character, portrayed perfect for the story
*Jake and Beth Heke - hard to describe why i like them, watch once were warriors and what becomes of the broken hearted and you will agree. Nig aswell coz he's so cool...
*John Nash - Russel Crowe is one of the greatest actors in the world, his acting made a good character great...
*Oren Ishii - just sheer coolness, "nows the ****ing time"

i suspect Ujio and Katsumoto will be there in two days time theres bound to be more ive forgotten

Han Solo/Indiana Jones - both awesome performances by Harrison Ford, one of my favorite actors

Bond - The super-smooth. the untouchable, the irresistable.

Wong Fei-Hung - The asian version of Bond except better. This character was used for countless martial arts fliks. Most famous were two of Jackie Chan's films, "The Drunken Master" and "Legend of the Drunken Master".

I like:

Gollum: For being kewl looking when he smiles and I like his voice.

Boba Fett and Jango Fett: For being kewl bounty hunters and I like there jet packs.

Dr.Dolittle: For being able to talk to animals.

and finally Sub-Zero: For being so "cool" and able to freeze things.

those are my fav. charactors.

I don't have many favourites (I'm not a big movie-watcher), but here they are:

Captain Jack Sparrow-- Well...who doesn't like him?

Han Solo-- One of the better Star Wars characters.

Indiana Jones-- I don't know why I like him so much. I just do.

Aragorn-- THE MUSCELS!!! Um...

That's pretty much it.

hey i like him but do you think he is really the best, personally it would be an insult to Aragorn to be alongside Jack Sparrow...

He has his own finesse to him.
