Film Room Top 20 Greatest Movie Characters

[Quarterback]

You hate movies??

Pretty much. I can literally count how many 21st century movies I've seen.

Never seen a single LOTR, Spiderman, F&F, Harry Potter or Mark Vincent movie. I got too much to do than to waste time on nonsense

I feel like you're in the wrong place then breh. And there are plenty of flicks out that aren't big time blockbusters. There's been a lot of dope flicks released this century. A lot

Is he on your list

 

[OmegaK2099]

if i had a list id say so, people still reference the character to this day, or more recently the media ive seen, "the evil within" (ps4) "outlast" and...others

Then make your list breh lol. That's the point. If you don't see a character you think should be on a list make tots and put him there. Asking why he's not on someone else's or anyone else's without making your own is only half the battle. Make your list then sell us
