If you could be one fictional movie character

I know I've done this one in the murky past, but new folks require new answers. If you could be one fictional film character who would you be and why?

Bond?
Laura Croft?
Rufus T. Firefly?
Terminator?
Ripley?
Darth Vader?

In my case, Aragorn. (In as much as Fëanor hasn't be portrayed in a major movie.)
...

I would not deign to depict such callow countenance upon the likeness of the High King of Noldor!

Viggo Mortensen didn't portray the King of the Noldor, eh?

Why? Because he loved life and squeezed into that life more in five minute's time than I could in five years.

Quid pro quo, Worfster!

The kid in Almost Famous

It'd be my dream job...to be in my teens, in the '70s, traveling with a rock band, writing reviews (even if it was Rolling Stone) and being on the fringe of the lifestyle, but not directly involved in it. Maybe picking up a stray groupie every now and then.

Bond... Most sex with many women.

If you can think of an actor who had more women than Bond, let me know and I'll edit my post. :biggrin5:

Ron Jeremy...we'll start callin you ol' Hedgehog Rich...

How do ya like them apples?

I'm not editing my post just yet. :nono:

Seriously, it's not even in question.

While I resemble Ron Jeremy in one very important anatomic category (not the very hairy back), I feel I have more class than the porno playa that he is.

Atticus Finch in "To Kill A Mockingbird". He has ths strength to do what is right with such power and grace. He did not do what was right for attention or praise but a strong sense of decency. I would like to be more like Atticus.

I've been partial to Royal....

Thought long and hard about this one, two come to mind.

1. Roy Neary - "Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind". Neary is an everyman who finds himself and his strength in one of the greatest adventures ever recorded. And for his faith and faithfullness he and he alone is awarded the chance of a lifetime, to travel the stars, never age, see things no man has ever seen (willingly).

2. Lt. Commander Worf - For obvious reasons. Kilingons are the brothers of the universe. But as was explained in one episode, Worf "is the only honorable Klingon" anyone knows. The rest swung wildly from drunken sots to egomanical breast baring behemoths (still love the Duras Sisters though). Only Worf could kill Chancellor Galron but refuse the post and hand the power to a better man....

Hm. It's interesting: A psych nurse friend of mine and I were talking about Roy (Close Encounters) the other day and musing over the sense that he may have been a bit loony (pardon the term--pun). Think about it--a man driven to obsession; his life comes apart as he wrecks his home in the struggle to figure it out; he finally flees to chase this "thing" that he cannot comprehend nor articulate). If such a guy came to my office, I probably would not hesitate to get him started on some good mood stabilizers or a moderate dose of antipsychotics....

So, Sir Slope: are you saying that you may be a couple steps away from the gathered throng?

That's what makes Neary so "special". Everyone save a few think he's nuts, his whole family leaves him, he loses his job, but he never doubts himself or what he knows is true. I WISH I had his faith, his strength his madness?

Da Worfster

Well....(LOL): Maybe I should start another thread with this--I can move it over for the sake of the members who're rolling their eyes, now--but, I've wondered about this. Neary was an odd duck, for sure. And yet....Consider the Bible. What would modern society think (for that matter what did they think then?) of an account related by twelve men describing a friend of theirs who raised the dead, walked on water, quieted a raging storm at sea and appeared to them after suffering a horrendous death? If someone came to a publisher with a zealous gleam in the eyes and claims that his account was true, that publisher would be pushing the security button in a hurry. Faith? Madness? Again, this is a subject that is ripe for another thread and I am not trying to be a fly in the ointment, but you got me wunnerin'....

Everything would be hunky dory, as long as you don't preach peace and love...Ghandi, Sedat, MLK...they shoot muhfuhs for that!

Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe heheheheheheheheheheh....

And make up for the deed by making a holiday in their honor...Oh, we're just rich!

Feanor, yeah he was alright, but one heluva selfish sob, too. When he was two clicks from death and saw how much the elves would suffer and be ultimately defeated by Morgoth, what did he say? Fight on, kiddies, to the bitter end! Yeah, great leadership there, you arrogant pointy-eared little imp. If the Noldor hadn't been so pig-headed in the first place there would never have been the kinslaying, the chasing of the Silmarils across half the globe, the creation of orcs, uruloki, balrogs, the rise of Sauron, and the ultimate humiliation of elves, men, and dwarves in the face of insurmountable odds. Manwe & Co. would have made quick work of Morgoth and his pet spider and didn't need the elves to piss in the pot.

Back to the original question, I'm kinda partial to The Man With No Name, but after seeing The Watchmen, I wouldn't mind giving a try at being Dr. super-smurf for a while, albeit, he could probably use some help from Ron Jeremy in one area....

Um, nightflier....You channelling Tolkien again?

Or just tokin'? :)

Galactus... I've pretty much had enough of this planet! :biggrin5:

Which characters have wound up in bed with Scarlett Johansson?
