So Bunny followed suit and posted his list of favorite fictional characters. Then he went and one-upped me by a)listing a couple of his 'worst' fictional characters and b)immediately dropping the Jar Jar Binks and Jack Dawson (Titanic) bombs, thereby making any subsequent lists practically irrelevant. But I'll try anyway.
First, a big hearty shout-out to stupid people in horror movies who do any of the following to invite, nay beg for, a horrible demise:
1. Playing about with anything occult and/or satanic, including but not limited to ancient books, tombs, ouija boards, interdimensional portals, known haunted houses and Indian burial grounds.
2. Going to the basement or attic to seek refuge or (and even worse) out of curiosity. Really, you don't want to know what that noise was.
3. Answer the phone. Nothing good ever comes of this. Try a telegraph, it's safer.
4. Vacationing in areas known to be the haunts of unstoppable serial killers. Extra points for dealing with the mysterious disappearance of your companions by having another beer and boinking your S.O.
Next I'd like to say hello to the gay supporting character who inexplicably lacks a sex life. You know the one. He's flamboyant! He's gay! But he never ever gets any play! Not even a snog.
Holden Caulfield I'd like to beat you up and take your lunch money. You're a teenager - you're supposed to be alienated, angry and confused. But it doesn't make you special.
Say! Have you heard about the guy from Brooklyn who loves the Dodgers serving in the WWII-era infantry? No? Then you must be deaf because according to the Tao of War Movies there was such a guy in every single squad in the ETO and PTO. Only slightly more annoying than that Irish character Murphy.
We have a group award on the list for anything and everyone associated with the film Darby O'Gill and the Little People.
And finally (at least for now) I must give a nod to creepy well chick from The Ring. I hate you because you scared the fuck outta me.
