Everyone always goes on about top movies and all that on here. So, hereís one with a difference. Your favourite film character. I donít mean the actor. Hereís mine.
5. BLADE (Blade) ñ So cool. He seems trained in all methods of combat, and has a valid reason to fight vampires, seeing as Buffyís is ñ Because its what I do. He has cool weapons, not a pathetic stick. You poke that into a Blade-world vampire, heíd smile, then snap your neck. The weapon I like the best is his ëpigstickerí. It looks very shiny and it chops off Quinnís hand a lot. The other thing I like about Blade is the fact heís not completely good. Thereís an evil twist to him that beats some other guys who are far too idealistic. Blade would kill a human if he thought they would turn. Would you see Buffy doing that? Hell no!
4. MAXIMUS (Gladiator) ñ Such a good fighter. I love the scene where he flips the sword from behind him and beheads a couple of Praetorians. The other great fighting sequence is against the gladiator from Gaul, with the tigers. Is Maximus phased? Or course not! Spartacus would have been destroyed after what Maximus went through. He also cares a lot about his family, which is admirable, and maintains his ideals after heís been exposed to the scum of humanity. Also, he makes cool friends, who can also wield swords and kill a lot of people. Maximus has good leadership techniques, brilliant fighting capabilities, and a dog that rips peoples throats out. What more can you ask for?
3. BOBA FETT (Star Wars) - I know we donít see him for much, but we will in the upcoming Episode II ñ Attack of the Clones. He has the BEST armour. Mandalorian is the name, from reading SW books. He also does a lot in the Expanded Universe. For instance, did you know he survives plunging into the Sarlacc? And why? Heís the best bounty hunter ever, of course! He tracks Han Solo, who has evaded Darth Vader, and he manages to get away with a Jedi on his tail. Admittedly, he catches up, but for a while there Boba had clean space between him and the Jedi, yíknow!
2. JOHN McCLANE (Die Hard Trilogy) ñ This is one tough cop. Heís tougher than all the other tough cops put together, and then some. He also is equipped with a wife who changes her marital status every film and a cool motto ñ Yippee-Ki-Yay. Heís not invincible, which is good. This is why I donít like Neo. Nothing can defeat him in the end. But John can get a good kicking, be all blooded up, and still throw some German out of a window. I like that. I also like the fact he is original and always thinks up new ways to kill someone. He can shoot someone, throw them out a window, blow up their plane or even slice ëem in half with a cable.
1. LOKI (Dogma) ñ Well, obviously, my favourite had to come from Dogma. For those of you who havenít seen Dogma, Loki is an angel exiled from heaven. Heís got a penchant for killing sinners and an arsenal of one-liners. One of the funniest bits is when he shoots a guy on a bus then walks of singing ñ Whose house? RONíS HOUSE! Say what?î. He also shoots a lot of board members and canít catch a bus. But most importantly, he is FUNNY! Watch the film, and youíll see what I mean. In the end, he gets drunk, becomes human, stands up to the bad guy and gets killed. Plus he gets a nifty breastplate thatís very, very shiny. He also thinks soccer is the only thing more energetic than mass genocide, and that The Walrus and The Carpenter is an incitement of organised religion. Go, go Loki!

Oh of course:
4) Wolverine - I want some of those blades. Best part in X-Men - when he gets thrown on the statue of liberty by Sabretooth and then gets up and flicks his blades out IN A REALLY COOL WAY. Jesus, Logan is the man.
3) Shaft - Either Roundtree or Jackson. Roundtree WAS the man and he knew it. Jackson thought he was the man but nobody else did. Still, it was Sammy L Jackson so that was enough to make the movie good. First one was much better though.
"Who's the black private dick who's a sex machine to all the chicks?"
Oh and by the way, Yokuma, do not say anything involving Kevin Smith in front of Stryke. It's not a pretty sight believe me. He goes all funny and runs around in circles shouting "OOOOOHHHHHHH look at me. Dogma is better than Heat, Dogma is better than Heat". I don't know what you kill that if it's not schitzophrenia.

Yeah, that scen rules, as does the scene where Maximus goes out against 6 guys, kills em all, kicks that sword out of the dust and chops that guys head off.

Don't you just love the part where Juba (the black guy) shouts Maximus and throws him his sword while he's riding the horse. The main part of the music starts and Maximus spins round his sword across his wrists a few times. (I swear he must have really demented wrists to be able to do that.)
Still, there is a fault here and that's that Juba doesn't actually know his name at this point. He should actually be shouting, "Spaniard". Just one of those things.

Ooooohhhh, cheap shot. :-)
Well Ross, I was going to choose Al Pacino's character from Heat, then I realised how vastly inferior that film is compared to Dogma...
Hmmmmmm....that's a tough one.
2) DAVE MOSS/SHELLY LEVINE/RICKY ROMA - All these characters are from Glengarry Glenross. I really can't choose between them. They are all just excellent and all have brilliant scenes.
1) Jerome Morrow - Jude Law's character in Gattaca. He is hilarious in that role. He has some quality lines and overall, he is just excellent in that role.
I havn't got enough time to go back any further but I'll probably right them another day.
Oh and by the way, I'm really surprised Gaz. A Dogma charater at number 1!!! That's not like you. :-)
