We've got the "most UNLIKEABLE character thread" already... http://forum.dvdtalk.com/showthread.php?t=420674

now the most likeable???

Jesus, from The Passion of The Christ.

Agreed on Carter Burke from the other thread. This one seems to fit here.



"We're in some real pretty shit now man!"

There are numerous jokes to be made here. Unfortunately, I'm not witty enough to come up with any of them, so I'll just have to check in regularaly to see other people post them.

Forest, Forest Gump

I can't disagree. Any mentally retarded or handicapped person or Jesus is always the correct answer. And Morgan Freeman. Especially if he plays a retarded person or Jesus.

Elias from Platoon.

Jack Twist

Phillip Seymor Hoffman in Magnolia
The Absent Minded Professor (my vote for most likable of mad scientists)
The hero in Ballad of a Soldier
The little girl in Spirited Away

Mouse (Don Cheadle) in Devil in a Blue Dress.

Oh, hell no.

John Candy characters are by far my most likeable characters.

here are a few choices:

Inspector Jacques Clouseau (Pink Panther films)
George Bailey (It's a Wonderful Life)
'Luke' Jackson (Cool Hand Luke)
Atticus Finch (To Kill a Mockingbird )
Indiana Jones
Irwin Fletcher (Fletch)
Mr. Miyagi (The Karate Kid)
William Wallace (Braveheart)
Gandalf (Lord of the Rings)


Or any of these guys:

Ed from Good Burger

Toshirô Mifune role in The Seven Samurai
Han Solo (Star Wars)
Henry Gondorff (Sting)
Wolverine (X-Men)

Robert Shaw's Quint. The true definition of a real man.

Arnel in Hustle & Flow

Graham Greene in anything

Definitely not Forrest Gump!!!!!!!

I'd say Jack Nicholson in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

Hector in Troy
Vincent in Pulp Fiction
Superman in Superman duh
The Thing in Fantastic Four
Doc, Marty and George McFly in BTTF
The four kids from Detroit Rock City
Hicks and Hudson in Aliens

Billy Ray Valentine in Trading Places

+1 he's such the definition of a hero. unlike that bastich achilles
