My point being, it was soooo overacted and over the top, it made it one of my favorites. Like a bad B-movie that becomes a cult favorite, I guess.

Some favorites:

 

Tom Hanks: A League of Their Own

 

Peter Sellers (three characters): Dr. Strangelove

 

Roy Sheider: 2010

 

Jeff Bridges: Starman

I'm gonna get a lot of :P for this but Timothy Dalton is my favorite James Bond after Connery. The new guy may make second place, need to see more.

Otto from A Fish Called Wanda, Keyser Soze, Han Solo, and Indiana Jones have already been mentioned, so I'll throw out some new ones:

 

Paden, Silverado (hey, it doesn't say best, it says favorite. He's one of mine.)

Chili Palmer

Wind In His Hair, from Dances With Wolves

Thomas Crown

Fletch

 

Chevy Chase's best character. In fact it's about 100 times better than any of his characters except for maybe Tony Carlson in Foul Play and Ty Webb in Caddyshack.
