The list is screwy, but it's Entertainment Weekly, so no surprise there. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kelwyn" <ravena...@yahoo.com> To: scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, May 30, 2010 7:30:30 PM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: [scifinoir2] Re: EW's The 100 Greatest Characters of the last 20 Years!
Tony Stark isn't the only cheat. Elmo was created in 1985. It is an odd list all-around. They get Cosmo Kramer and Morpheus right. The Cigarette Smoking guy is a more memorable character than either Mulder or Scully. Cuba Gooding, Jr's Rod Tidwell should trump Cruise's Jerry McGuire. I would take Voldemort over Harry Potter. They get John Locke right but why is Hancock on this list? ~rave? --- In scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com , Keith Johnson <keithbjohn...@...> wrote: > > That can't be the reason, because Tony Stark is on the list.
