A New Top 25

     Here is a new movie list for y'all. This time, it is my TOP 25 MOVIE CHARACTERS of all time. Once again, these are not necessarily the best, they are my personal favorites. I haven't seen a lot of pre 1975 movies, so give me a break on that. Plus, it was VERY hard to narrow this list down to only 25. I had to weed out great characters such as Dr. Evil, Frank Drebin, and Jack Torrence just to name only a few. One last thing, I did not include characters that were actual people; like Hunter S. Thompson, Ghandi, Doc Holliday or Andy Kauffman and the like. This is my list, let me know what you think...click on the comment link at the bottom of the post to leave your ideas. Here it is:

25) The Old Man (A Christmas Story)
24) Ricky Slade (Made)
23) Penny Lane (Almost Famous)
22) Raymond Babbit (Rain Man)
21) Bill Lumberg (Office Space)
