Billy Bibbet - or Black Bird? Huh???
When I took nominations, I said that inanimate objects could be considered a character, and several are in the tourney. The Ring in LOTR, the Traveling Gnome from Amelie, and a few others. Anybody who's seen The Maltese Falcon knows what the black bird is.

I love Billy, but if I were voting (which I'm not, except to break a tie if I've seen both movies) I'd vote for the black bird because it's much more important to the story, like Chuck's reasoning for Obi-Wan.

Banky and Barry were tied at 6 each, so I cast my vote for Barry. I love Chasing Amy, but Barry is more memorable as a character.

Barry(High Fidelity)Jack Black wins 7-6
Ben/Obiwan Kenobi(Star Wars series)Alec Guinness and Ewan MacGregor wins 14-5
Biff Tannen(Back to the Future)Thomas F. Wilson wins 15-1
Bilbo Baggins(Lord of the Rings, The series)Ian Holm wins 10-7
Billy Bibbet(One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest)Brad Dourif wins 11-3 (I'm happy, Billy was certainly memorable too!)

Nice guy, I don't give a shit. Good father, fuck you! Go home and play with your kids! You wanna work here, close! You think this is abuse? You think this is abuse, you cocksucker? You can't take this, how can you take the abuse you get on a site?"

"You seek a great fortune, you three who are now in chains. You will find a fortune, though it will not be the one you seek. But first... first you must travel a long and difficult road, a road fraught with peril. Mm-hmm. You shall see thangs, wonderful to tell. You shall see a... a cow... on the roof of a cotton house, ha. And, oh, so many startlements. I cannot tell you how long this road shall be, but fear not the obstacles in your path, for fate has vouchsafed your reward. Though the road may wind, yea, your hearts grow weary, still shall ye follow them, even unto your salvation."

Um yeah ok. Color me stupid but in my mind a supporting character would have to be an actual character and not a piece of furniture, which is why I asked.

Whatever don't let me spoil the fun. Can't wait for the Clark Bar from Caddyshack vs. The Star Trek phaser gun. ;)
