Greatest Characters of Film - Well Almost

I found this article on progressiveboink.com where they outlined the 100 Greatest Characters of Film. I think that they did a relatively good job. They included a very large variety of films. I was reminded of films / characters that I used to love, but hadn't seen in a while (see #87 for an example.) They included characters that you have to love and some that you love to hate. Usually I don't give much thought to these lists because I find them narrow minded and completely out of synch with my own feelings. However, this one was different, I kept thinking 'Wow, good call!' They do a very good job with the commentary as well. But there is always going to be those that just don't make the cut. So below you'll find a list of characters that would have been in the list had I been in charge of things!: (in no particular order)

OUR FREEDOM!"
