with a quick skim through i think these are the only ones that deserve it. they could add many more that are better

drinkwine732

Homer Simpson certainly deserved it, maybe not that high, but he deserves top 5 consideration.

Gazorpazorpfield

I'm not the biggest fan of Harry Potter, but has much money as that shit has brought in, he definitely deserves to be on the list.

NOLA

Woody over Buzz Lightyear? list is bullshit

drinkwine732

Perilous humans must be in error

Heisenberg

Homer!

Santana

Seemed like a good list except there's no Jason bourne and bauer is too low

Gazorpazorpfield

Anybody from Office Space?

Stratophony

Homer being #1 makes this list credible.


nothing else would

cannibiscorpse

i still think jay and silent bob should be in there

Gazorpazorpfield

Agreed

OPP

Napoleon Dynamite................... yet no Pikachu? This is wrong.

Then again, Pikachu really doesn't have a personality. And he doesn't speak anything more than his name but still...

cannibiscorpse

barely his name, 90% of the time is just pika

Santana

^ lol
a pet sized animal that can shoot lightning can't even say it's full name most of the time.....kinda makes me lol

Jormungandr

Homer Simpson = credible
But Gandalf should be in place of Gollum, and number 1.

drinkwine732

Wait...Jack Sparrow?


BULLSHIT

MetalCoresades

"Nathan Drake - Uncharted, Kratos - God of War"

yes
