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 #27 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 #27.1 perrinOG 2004

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

modestjesse #27.2 modestjesseOG 2004

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

perrin #27.2.1 perrinOG 2004

Yeah I'm so looking forward to that myself.

perrin #26 perrinOG 2004

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

perrin #25 perrinOG 2004

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

modestjesse #25.1 modestjesseOG 2004

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

Qui Gon is NOTHING compared to Palpatine.

perrin #25.1.1 perrinOG 2004

lol. I knew that was going to happen. lol

perrin #25.1.1.1 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

rocksupastar #24 rocksupastarFounder

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

modestjesse #23 modestjesseOG 2004

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

perrin #23.1 perrinOG 2004

/edit] oops posted in the wrong spot.

modestjesse #23.1.1 modestjesseOG 2004

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

yay #23.1.1.1 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 #22 aviatorOG 2004

neither is Jabba the Hut or Quai Gon Jinh

perrin #22.1 perrinOG 2004

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

aviator #21 aviatorOG 2004

how come Chewbacca isnt on the list?

perrin #21.1 perrinOG 2004

Forgot to put him there.

skaorsk8 #20 skaorsk8OG 2002

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

tinser #20.1 tinserOG 2002

sabe

skaorsk8 #20.1.1 skaorsk8OG 2002

are you sure....

skaorsk8 #20.1.1.1 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 #20.1.2 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 #20.1.2.1 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 #20.1.2.2 iwz

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

tinser #20.1.2.3 tinserOG 2002

yeah, she looks so different in bend it like beckem

perrin #19 perrinOG 2004

So who should the Nominees for the poll be?

tinser #19.1 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 #19.1.1 perrinOG 2004

Ok I'll do it tomorrow.

perrin #19.1.1.1 perrinOG 2004

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

tinser #18 tinserOG 2002

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

perrin #18.1 perrinOG 2004

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

fivezero #17 fivezeroOG 2003

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

thatdarngirl #17.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

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

perrin #17.1.1 perrinOG 2004

That's just asking for trouble. lol

rocksupastar #16 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 #16.1 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 #16.1.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

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

rocksupastar #16.1.1.1 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 #15 yayOG 2004 offtopic

aviator #14 aviatorOG 2004 offtopic

icescream22 #13 icescream22OG 2004

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

skaorsk8 #13.1 skaorsk8OG 2002 offtopic

please move the winking to the macking forum, thank you

aviator #13.1.1 aviatorOG 2004

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

icescream22 #13.1.2 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 #13.1.2.1 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 #13.2 perrinOG 2004

Yoda talk like I do.

hunkpapap #12 hunkpapapOG 2003

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

thatdarngirl #12.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Why not? He's an amazing character.

hunkpapap #12.1.1 hunkpapapOG 2003

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

fivezero #12.1.1.1 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.

rocksupastar #12.1.1.2 rocksupastarFounder

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

modestjesse #11 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 #11.1 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 #11.1.1 modestjesseOG 2004

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

thatdarngirl #11.1.1.1 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 #11.2 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 #11.2.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

That's sooo funny!

skaorsk8 #11.2.2 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

#10 chuckthecloneOG 2002

george lucas is my favorite

fivezero #9 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 #9.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

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

fivezero #9.1.1 fivezeroOG 2003

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

deanh77 #8 deanh77Founder

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

thatdarngirl #8.1 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 #8.1.1 perrinOG 2004

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

skaorsk8 #7 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
#6 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 #6.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

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

perrin #6.2 perrinOG 2004

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

ilikebirds #5 ilikebirdsOG 2002

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

yodasucka #4 yodasuckaOG 2003

YODA

forrestina #4.1 forrestinaOG 2002

didn't see that one coming

yodasucka #4.1.1 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 #4.1.1.1 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 #3 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 #2 forrestinaOG 2002

chewbaca-hands down

tinser #1 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 #1.1 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 #1.1.1 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
#1.1.2 deathtognomesOG 2004

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

perrin #1.1.2.1 perrinOG 2004

No you are the CHUMP!

thatdarngirl #1.2 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 #1.2.1 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 #1.2.1.1 perrinOG 2004

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

perrin #1.2.2 perrinOG 2004

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