*DRAFT* Interest List - Greatest Movie Characters - Page 2 - The Lounge Discussion and Review on Literature, Arts, Culture

Does the character have to be human? I assume not.

I pick Francisco Goya. Have I won yet!

I'm in. Which is a pain since I'm retired and have much to do. I can be regularly skipped, as I no long adhere to the strictures of universal time.

Do animation films count? What about films from the planet Jupiter? Is Roger Corman a character? Is God? What about monster slimy sea slugs from the ocean deeps? Can I pick from films that haven't been made yet? Does the character have to have any lines? The questions just keep coming.

Yes

This whole betting line makes no sense. If Mr. Cole's #1 is unique, why would he want to go first? Nobody could steal his pick. Has he merely succumbed to a Trumpian "Me-Me-Me" philosophy?

And note that he says "can I" rather than "may I." Not significant for any other poster, but for Mr. Cole it can only mean he is enquiring about his own capabilities. Why? Is he sowing seed of doubt in the fertile fields of this forum?

He's obviously running some kind of play. I suggest we all fold.

I'm just wondering if RBK seriously loves 'other JB' enough that that's who he thinks is the clear #1 pick throughout all of film history.

I guess he really does though. Damn RBK man, you are obsessed with that dude.

I mean, come on now, 'other JB isn't even O.G. JB,' even if I do have to ceed that he might beat O.G. JB in a fight.

And since mrbaseball agreed to this:

I expect to get this started tomorrow (Monday) afternoon. Will give it until then to see if any others jump in and then randomize a draft order and get this thing started. Should be fun!

^eh... you're right.
I'd have probably picked someone like Bruce Campbell as Sebastian Haff in Bubba Ho-Tep or Noble Willingham as Ace Barker in Corndog Man and ruined your whole draft.
