Combining Lists

I don't know how I could live with myself if I didn't take all of these top ten lists I've been compiling and put them to good use. Let's see who ended up as the consensus top character based on the lists I used. Also I will be figuring out who the top actor from the lists. Normal scoring was used, with 10 points for a number one, 9 for second and so on. You needed to make two lists to be considered. Oh and Ty's list was thrown out.

Top Characters

15. Chester Lee- Rodney Dangerfield in Ladybugs (5 points)

14. Jack Kelly- Christian Bale in Newsies (6 points)

11. Frank Slade (left)- Al Pacino in Scent of a Woman (8 points)

11. Ron Burgundy- Will Ferrell in Anchorman (8 points)

10. Doc Holliday- Val Kilmer in Tombstone (9 points)

8. Tyler Durden (left)- Brad Pitt in Fight Club (10 points)

8. Buddy the Elf- Will Ferrell in Elf (10 points)

Old Man T-Time

For a dude that prides himself in loving old movies, and by old movies I mean anything before 1980, Timothy H. Time has six new movie characters to four old ones. This is such a slap in the face to the 300 dvds he has from the 50s and 60s. While we're on the subject of list making, during the summers I worked at the fabulous DeLorme Map Company, T-time and I would make lists of everything and anything and then vote on them. One of our original goals was to end up with a master list of the greatest people in the world (actors, athletes, musicians, actual people we know, etc.) Due to the fact that I am now residing in CT this never happened, and aren't we all sad because of it.

T-time's Top Ten

10. Captain Ron- Kurt Russell- Captain Ron

9. Mr. Miyagi- Pat Morita- Karate Kid

8. Ivanhoe Martin- Jimmy Cliff- The Harder They Come

7. Doc Holliday- Val Kilmer- Tombstone

6. Eddie Felson- Paul Newman- The Hustler

5. Captain James Hook- Dustin Hoffman- Hook


4. David Ruffin- Leon- The Temptations

3. Rick Blaine- Humphrey Bogart- Casablanca

2. Dignan- Owen Wilson- Bottle Rocket

1. Man With No Name (left)- Clint Eastwood- The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

Owen and Vince

Although Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn's work in Wedding Crashers might be the funniest buddy comedy performance ever, their audio commentary for the dvd could easily be number two. These two guys play off of each other better than any team i've heard. Other audio commentaries that I've watched recently that are worth taking a look at; Talladega Nights, Old School, Monsters Inc.
