Karen Cisco - Out of Sight: yuck
I would hazard a guess that you're letting the whole "J-Lo" hooha color your opinion of this character and Jennifer Lopez's acting of the character. I can't even begin to try and think about beginning to imagine why Karen Cisco would prompt a "yuck" otherwise.

Well, Vickie, believe it or not, there are some people who didn't like the film and who thought that she wasn't particularly good in the role.

Well, since Vickie posted but didn't vote for herself, I'll abstain.

I want to say, though, that I'm happier with my list in this draft than in any of the others.

Big bonus points to Dome for drafting Red Beard... but the double blast of Star Wars is off-putting, and I'd like to never speak of Hannibal Lecter again. Luke has the better overall list, despite a couple of mediocre choices (I like The Godfather and The Conversation, but those characters are pretty dull).

LukeB
Buzz Lightyear - Toy Story -- Not bad.

Dome definitely has some great characters, but Luke has better choices from both Back to the Future and Ghost Busters. However, Luke has the only character I dislike. Still, I have to give Luke the edge here.

Wow, two excellent lists! Gotta give the nod to Dome, though. My vote would have gone to Luke had he not included Corleone.
