Who is your favorite Star Wars Character?

Personally from reading the books my favorite character is Jacen Solo. He's just an awsome character and totally the way I would be if I was a Jedi. He's just so awsome. He just gets better and better as the New Jedi Order series goes on.

Hey, don't forget Salacious Crum

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

How is Obi-wan not winning? Collectively he is the best character. In the original movies he's just some crazy man living out in the desert that quirks his eyebrows and says weird things and is able to swindle in dark bars. In the new movies he's just becoming a master and he's just the man because..I don't know.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

I agree with you. Obiwan is awsome, with these new movies he is become my favorite character.

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 ·

I can't wait to see Obi Wan hand it to Anakin in Episode 3.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Yeah I'm so looking forward to that myself.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Ok if anyone wants to vote for Anakin that means voting for Darth Vader. I have put palpatine back on there.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Ok took out Jango and added chewy and took out palpatine and added Quai Gon Jinh.

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 ·

ARE YOU NUTS? You removed Palpatine? Who do you think planned the whole thing!

Qui Gon is NOTHING compared to Palpatine.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

lol. I knew that was going to happen. lol

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Do you want me to put palpatine back and take off jinh?

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 ·

I want you to clarify exactly what you mean by 'best' first. But in my eyes Qui Gon doesn't belong on that list.

As stan would say, he jobbed out to Maul.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

It's who you think is the best character not neccissarily your favorite. Which one you seem to think was the best overall in the series of movies. I really don't know how else to explain it though I think most people just voted for their favorite character. It's really up to you how you want to interpret it.

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 ·

And why do you have Anakin on that list and Darth Vader on that list?

Are you simply giving us the opportunity to vote for good jedi and bad jedi?

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Man this is becoming way to complicated. lol

rocksupastarFounder ·

AWW yeah, see han rocked you ALL!!! suckas!

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 ·

Best on what scale? Strongest? Prettiest? Most Powerful? In control of the force? Or do you mean favorite?

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

/edit] oops posted in the wrong spot.

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 ·

So what's the answer though? I can't vote till I know what I'm voting on.

yay yayOG 2004 ·

"Who is your favorite Star Wars Character?"

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 ·

Ah, but you're not reading. That's the title of the thread but the question on the poll is 'Who is the best Star Wars Character?'

yay yayOG 2004 ·

Oh duh, you're right. So yes just vote, but don't look. Then pat your self on the head with a fork.

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 ·

pointy end down

yay yayOG 2004 ·

who put this hair in my head of head!

aviator aviatorOG 2004 ·

neither is Jabba the Hut or Quai Gon Jinh

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

forgot them both though I don't think Jabba should be on there anyway.

aviator aviatorOG 2004 ·

how come Chewbacca isnt on the list?

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Forgot to put him there.

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

question of the day - who did keira knightly play in the Phantom Menace?

tinser tinserOG 2002 ·

sabe

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

are you sure....

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

hmm good call. i thought her name was Padme for some reason, but apparently that was Amidala's....other name. ok. weird. anyway, can we start a Keira Knightly vs. Natalie Portman poll? This is heavily star wars related. we can even throw in Carrie Fisher for comparison purposes. And mon montha, for you sickos.

tinser tinserOG 2002 ·

yeah, i thought padme for a second too...if we do the girl poll, we have to do a mark hamill, harrison ford, hayden christenson poll too!

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

While Kiera is great Natalie Portaman is amazing there is just no comparison Natalie Portman has the skills and the brains.

deanh77 deanh77Founder ·

was sabe the decoy that got killed when the ship exploded? that is so funny, because I've been saying that keira knightly looks just like Natalie Portman ever since I saw the ad for Pirates of the Caribean. (And I'm constantly telling my wife that she looks just like both of them, they're like triplets seperated at birth) Also, apparently she was the blonde girl in "Bend it like Beckham"... I had no idea.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Yeah she did play one of NP's clones in Star Wars. I was saying the same thing after I saw Pirates too and then I found out she was in Star Wars and looked it up and low and behold she was one of the characters that was supposed to be a double. They really do look a lot alike, but I'd still take NP over kiera. lol

iwz iwz ·

yeah, i think it's a conspiracy. keira knightly == natalie portman

tinser tinserOG 2002 ·

yeah, she looks so different in bend it like beckem

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

So who should the Nominees for the poll be?

tinser tinserOG 2002 ·

i think you should stick with the basic characters...dont do the book ones

how about luke, han, darth vader, lea, anakin, amidala...etc....the big ones

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Ok I'll do it tomorrow.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

I hope I didn't forget anyone important. I can't think of anyone else right now.

tinser tinserOG 2002 ·

i think we need to get a poll up in here for the best character

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

hm. that's a good idea. Who should I put on the list?

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

i had a crush on Mon Mothma. OH! and admiral ackbar! "it's a trap!"

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

Ahaha Mon Mothma. What a great name. I should definetly name one of my children that.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

That's just asking for trouble. lol

rocksupastarFounder ·

aww man, how did i MISS this forum!!!?!?! hmm... Fav has to be Han Solo.. yeah yeah... everyone likes him, but hes confidence and sarcasm are the BEST, Mara Jade, Mace Windu, Admiral Thrawn, and Biggs.... just cause hes hot.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Yeah mike I was wondering why you never posted anything here. lol

I figured you for a Han Solo type. lol
Biggs!? Man you need help. lol

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

Yeah..I hate Biggs and his gee-ross facial hair. Now his cousin, Gavin Darklighter, is awesome!

R
rocksupastarFounder ·

you guys need better taste! besides... biggs taught Luke everything he knows about flying... SHEESH no biggs, no trilogy!

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 ·

Biggs is MUCH better then Wedge!

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

Porkins.

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 ·

Almost there.
Almost there.
Ahhhhhhh!

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

Yo..Wedge is the man!

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 ·

You are obviously a confused young woman.

yay yayOG 2004 offtopic ·

my favorite is fluffy the peanut. fluffy the peanut is a peanut that was fluffy. remember him? i like to call him fluffy the peanut.

aviator aviatorOG 2004 offtopic ·

haha my fave star wars character is probably peters chucky doll

icescream22 icescream22OG 2004 ·

Well, personally from watching all the movies I'd have to say yoda...Who talks like that!?!?! ;)

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 offtopic ·

please move the winking to the macking forum, thank you

aviator aviatorOG 2004 ·

hey she can wink all she wants. She kills bugs and eats them too.

icescream22 icescream22OG 2004 ·

;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) I like my lil' winking buddys....& as far as i know i've never eaten a bug tho "they" say that every person has eaten at least 3 bugs in their lifetime...oh well ;)

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

Nope. You Average 10 a year. Mostly spiders, mosquitos and fliers.

icescream22 icescream22OG 2004 ·

nasty.. well, if i did eat any it Wasn't by choice & thats the only thing that counts, Tho I don't know about some ppl, lol....On an after thought: I don't really get ur comment in the first place...?

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

I thought you's were discussing insect ingestion during sleep. 10 a year or so.

icescream22 icescream22OG 2004 ·

ok, nevermind, this is getting confusing....lol

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

my...condolences

aviator aviatorOG 2004 ·

she kills bugs. Bug killer haha

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Yoda talk like I do.

hunkpapap hunkpapapOG 2003 ·

Yo i don't want to be grand moff tarkin...

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

Why not? He's an amazing character.

hunkpapap hunkpapapOG 2003 ·

all right fine you be grand moff tarkin and you be bobba fett..

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

I gotta find that illustration of Boba Fett hovering over the Sarlacc and taking a crap inside it's mouth. Cracked me up so bad.

R
rocksupastarFounder ·

I got the movie quote pat... these newbs arent following your train of thought... lol

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 ·

Probably Solo, he's just too cool. I love his sarcasm. Thrawn would probably be second, followed by Vader, Mara Jade, and Luke.

I hate Wedge and all the X-wing team, they should have been killed off in the battle at Yavin.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

Whoah..why are you hating on Wedge? I have you read the entire X-wing saga books, I think they're some of the best!

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 ·

I refuse to pick them up. Wedge is a dork.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

Wedge is so cool! Like..he's just a normal guy who rises to be this hero yet he doesn't have any special powers or anything. I think you'd like the Wraith Squadron books that are in the Rogue Series..they're funny. Wraiths are the outcasts and the misfits.

iwz iwz ·

i hate wedge too because whenever i think of him i always picture this guy:
http://www.starwars.com/databank/character/niennunb/index.html

ugh. i wish i could just picture him normally. the name "wedge" just makes me think of that ugly dude.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

That's sooo funny!

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

why do you picture nien numb when thinking of wedge?? ian, you have some serious issues that need to be resolved.

let me get you a tissue...for your issue...hahaha

chuckthecloneOG 2002 ·

george lucas is my favorite

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader. that who all these movies are about. HE is the one who brought BALANCE. and i liked Greedo too! that nizzle got his fizzle shizzled by Han Solizzle.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

I love Greedo just because he gets shot and then like..you see him walking around the spaceport later.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

Greedo can't be played. He's bullet-proof.

deanh77 deanh77Founder ·

dude. Aunt Beru. (hahaha I was gonna add "handsdown" but I see forreste beat me to it.)

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

Oh wow..this just reminded me. How are we all forgetting Obi-wan. He is like the man! Not only is he one of the best jedi ever, but he is also a crazy old man living in the desert by himself. What does he do out there all alone? (same applies to Yoda).

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Yeah he's awsome. He's my favorite in episodes 1 and 2.

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

I love PORKINS...sure, he was only in the movie for a minute...sure, he was fat...and looked like he ate a lot of pork rinds...sure, he barely fit in in the cockpit of the x-wing, and died because he was out of shape...but man, he was my favorite

D
deathtognomesOG 2004 ·

Ysanne Isard is my favorite. Her plans were just pure genius! I also really like Jaba the hut, Gavin darklighter and Nawara’ven.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

Gavin is the man!! Ysanne kind of annoyed me after a while because she just wouldn't die!

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Grand Admiral Thrawn was better he makes her look like a nobody.

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002 ·

the one that can't use the force. cause thats ME

yodasucka yodasuckaOG 2003 ·

YODA

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 ·

didn't see that one coming

yodasucka yodasuckaOG 2003 ·

o and a close second is that fat one... starts wit a J... Jaba? Juba? sumthing like that haha i heart him cuz hes fat

tinser tinserOG 2002 ·

jaba the hut

yodasucka yodasuckaOG 2003 ·

YES! him... i love all the fat characters in movies for sum reason.. right frest?

omegatweeter omegatweeterOG 2003 ·

pizza the hut! hehe

tinser tinserOG 2002 ·

may the shwartz be with you!

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

I don't know if I could ever pick one favorite character out of the millions that there are. Some of my favorite are definetly: Mara Jade, Talon Karade, Wedge Antilles (he just may be my favorite), Corran Horn, Grand Admiral Thrawn, Han Solo (how can you not love him in those pants?)...man I'm missing so many in here.

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 ·

chewbaca-hands down

tinser tinserOG 2002 ·

well, i haven't read any of the books, but...

my all time favorite is luke skywalker. He's a jedi, a skywalker, awesome with the force, and he's young and realatively inexperianced...i like that about him.

i also really liked darth vader always, before he turned good. I can't explain it, perhaps i have a weakness for the dark side in me somewhere.

and....of course i have to include darth vader's former self, anakin mainly because he is just so darn hot!

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Yeah well Darth Vader is a really cool character. I know a lot of people that like the empire over the rebellion simply because of Darth Vader.

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

and also because he's bad! and black! and big!

lando was a black man but he's all "hey let's make some money and buy some skyscrapers"...he's like russell simmons

D
deathtognomesOG 2004 ·

I like the empire but not because of Vader he was a chump.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

No you are the CHUMP!

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

I do love Luke..but I have a problem with him too. One, he is such a whiney baby in the first movie. Like- get over it and do your work and THEN you can go to the Toshi Station to pick up power converters. Second, once he becomes a Jedi he gets waaaayyy to serious. He's know fun anymore after that. I hear in the later books he lightens up a bit and gets hitched, but before that he definetly had an attitude problem.

tinser tinserOG 2002 ·

see, i think these are the things i like about him. He has a lot of issues, which is great, it makes him realistic, in the first movie, he's such a baby, totally immature...then he overdoes the maturing thing, by being too serious, showing that he still hasn't really gotten life down yet. It's totally a learning process with him, i really like that. Seems like he had trouble finding himself, i like that his character isn't the standard "perfect hero" that so many stories are used to

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

I think you've hit the nail right on the head with this one.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Yeah he does get better later on in the books.Especially in the New Jedi Order Series.
