Quote from: PatriotClock;1712408Fuck I forgot Rorschach, but fuck it not revising the list again

In all fairness, Rorschach is a character from 1985. The unchanged film version just happened to be released in 2009

IF we're counting cartoons, anyone voiced by Steve Blum. Rodger Smith, Mugen, Leeron, etc.
Okay, maybe not Leeron. He was a funny character, though.

Unfortunately, Cowboy Bebop was 98-99, so Spike falls right outside the range.

The entire cast of The Venture Brothers.

Also, Kamina.

Well if we're going to talk about TV...

Omar Little (Michael K. Williams, The Wire)

...actually, everyone in The Wire

Amélie made Audrey Tautou my favorite actress.

Woo Jin-lii and Oh Dae-su from Oldboy, for the same reason as Daniel Plainview.

Quote from: Phil Ken Sebben;1713344The entire cast of The Venture Brothers.

Yeah but I would specifically nominate Dr Venture because I think he's extremely well characterised.

Quote from: Juror 8;1714033Woo Jin-lii and Oh Dae-su from Oldboy, for the same reason as Daniel Plainview.

Yeah they're great too.

Quote from: Juror 8;1714033Woo Jin-lii and Oh Dae-su from Oldboy, for the same reason as Daniel Plainview.

yes

also im going to have to say that Walter White and Jesse Pinkman from the TV series Breaking Bad have to be two of my favorite TV characters from the last decade. listing off all of my favorite film characters would take a long time.

Quote from: Marlix Wright;1713348Also, Kamina.

got my vote.

It's great to see Walter slowly turning from a man in a desperate situation to an actual awful person. To me that's what the title is about anyway.

The movie is from 2009. This thread is called best movie characters of the decade.

I just saw Harry Brown. Michael Cane's character was pretty excellent.

Yes.

Quote from: Juror 8;1714402

As cool as Uncharted is, I'm pretty sure it's not a movie.
