Max Fischer Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 Agree with almost all above (esp Val Kilmer in Tombstone). Others, - Max Fischer - Rushmore (obviously. Jason Schwartzman) - Herman Blume - Rushmore (Bill Murrary ) - Royal Tennebaum (Gene Hackman, The Royal Tennebaums - should have won Golden Globe or Oscar) - Inspector Clouseau (Peter Sellers) - Marge Gunderson (Frances McDormand - Fargo) - Atticus Finch (Gregory Peck - To Kill a Mockingbird) - Tom Hanks (League of the their own) Adding: - Gus McCrae (Robert Duvall, Lonesome Dove; can add Tommy Lee Jones' Woodrow Call)
***PetrinoInAlbany*** Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 Gunnery Sergeant Tom Highway Heartbreak Ridge was a f'ing classic! "They didn't cheat. They adapted, overcame, and kicked ass!"
Kelly the Dog Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 There are far too many for me to mention and I'd have to rule out all the classics, but... Bill Blazejowski in Nightshift was a good one no one mentioned.
Bullpen Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 Agree with almost all above (esp Val Kilmer in Tombstone). 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.
rockpile Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 Some favorites: Tom Hanks: A League of Their Own Peter Sellers (three characters): Dr. Strangelove Roy Sheider: 2010 Jeff Bridges: Starman
/dev/null Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 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. So that's how Al Gore won an Oscar
EndZoneCrew Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 Irwin Fletcher: Fletch Reg Dunlop: Slap Shot William Wallace: Braveheart Dudley Dawson: Revenge of the Nerds Harry Doyle: Major League Fred O'Bannion (Affleck): Dazed and Confused
Kelly the Dog Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 So that's how Al Gore won an Oscar Al Gore never won an Oscar.
Steely Dan Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 Another honorable mention goes to Leon from the Professional. Jean Reno is awesome in that one. Janet Reno made a movie! Hubert Hawkins - Danny Kaye - The Court JesterJack Sparrow - Johnny Depp - POTC Tyler Durden - Norton/Pitt - Fight Club James Bond - Sean Connery - Goldfinger Spartacus - Kirk Douglas - Spartacus I'm gonna get a lot of for this but Timothy Dalton is my favorite James Bond after Connery. The new guy may make second place, need to see more. A few that haven't been mentioned: Nigel Tufnel - Spinal Tap Jesse Ventura - Predator Bluto - Animal House Basil Plumley - When We were Soldiers Phil Eliot - North Dallas Forty and of course.... Jose Ferrer - Cyrano De Bergerac Great choices. "I ain't got time to bleed..." 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. Josey Wales Ripley William Wallace Jack Sparrow Russell Casse Other great choices. I thought about Ripley but left her out. The StrangerNeil McCauley Dark Helmet Det. Scott Turner The Snipers in Blackhawk Down Another great choice!! How'd I forget some of these!!

Vincent Corleone (Andy Garcia), Godfather 3Derek (Ed Norton), American History X Frank (Dennis Hopper), Blue Velvet Matilda (Natalie Portman), The Professional Mona Lisa Vito (Marisa Tomei), My Cousin Vinny More great choices!! Crash DavisRoy Hobbs The Monty Python Guys as British officers in the tiger stectch in "The Meaning of Life" Don't forget Mr. Creosote. Agree with almost all above (esp Val Kilmer in Tombstone). Others, - Max Fischer - Rushmore (obviously. Jason Schwartzman) - Herman Blume - Rushmore (Bill Murrary ) - Royal Tennebaum (Gene Hackman, The Royal Tennebaums - should have won Golden Globe or Oscar) - Inspector Clouseau (Peter Sellers) - Marge Gunderson (Frances McDormand - Fargo) - Atticus Finch (Gregory Peck - To Kill a Mockingbird) - Tom Hanks (League of the their own) Adding: - Gus McCrae (Robert Duvall, Lonesome Dove; can add Tommy Lee Jones' Woodrow Call) More great choices. Chris Chambers- River Phoenix, Stand By Me The Poorpisses receiver was in that movie?! Seriously, good choice. Some favorites: Tom Hanks: A League of Their Own Peter Sellers (three characters): Dr. Strangelove Roy Sheider: 2010 Jeff Bridges: Starman More great choices! How could I forget those?!
