THIS is an old list, and follows a ranking system (which I am never fond of), but it got me thinking of who I would put on such a list, so here it is. I'm not adding pictures (too much work), but I'll list the actor AND movie, and maybe an aside or favorite quote.
The Joker
Movie: The Dark Knight
Actor: Heath Ledger
Quote: "Wanna see a magic trick?"
Darth Vader
Voice: James Earl Jones
Movies: Star Wars Episodes IV-VI
Obi-Won Kenobi
Actors: Ewan McGerggor
Movies: Star Wars Episodes I-III
Notes: Yes, I had to give it to the new trilogy. While the original trilogy consisted of better movies, Alec Guinness only contributed to one movie, easily trumped by Vader and Solo, whereas Ewan McGreggor gave the most to the new trilogy. His acting took center stage, compensating for the shortcomings of the script, and arguable some of the other performances.
Han Solo
Movies: Star Wars Episodes IV-VI
Actor: Harrison Ford
The Metatron
Movie: Dogma
Actor: Alan Rickman
Silent Bob
Movies: Dogma, Clerks 1 & 2, Mall Rats, etc.
Actor: Kevin Smith (uncredited)
Rufus, the Thirteenth Apostle
Movie: Dogma
Actor: Chris Rock
Notes: Okay, it might seem shallow, but with the cut scenes from Dogma, you find a lot of great commentary on religion. If nothing else, he's a fun character.
John McClain
Movies: Die Hard (all)
Actor: Bruce Willis
Quote: "Yippee-ki-yay, ********!"
Don Vito Corleone
Movie: The Godfather
Actor: Marlon Brando
Quote: An offer you can't refuse...
Michael Corleone
Movie: The Godfather
Actor: Al Pachino
Jules Winnfield
Movie: Pulp Fiction
Actor: Samuel L Jackson
Quote: "ENGLISH, ********, DO YOU SPEAK IT?"
The Bride
Movies: Kill Bill
Actress: Uma Thurman
*Note: I want to add a lot more, but it's time for a break. Stay tuned for more characters wink

Whatever I like to share. Sometimes I might revive reviews and the review system from my SuperJawes days, and sometimes I might just post something memorable.
