Ten Favorite Movie Characters

Today DH and I have been married 13 years! Interestingly enough, today’s Ten on Tuesday topic is Favorite Movie Characters. Since we’re both movie fiends, that’s appropriate. Here are ten one (or both) of us love:

1. Inigo Montoya from The Princess Bride (“Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.”) Actually, nearly all of the characters from The Princess Bride could have made this list.
   
2. H.I. McDonnough from Raising Arizona (“Um, I’ll be takin’ these Huggies, and whatever cash you got.”
3. Elle Woods from Legally Blonde (“Whoever said orange was the new pink was seriously disturbed.”)
4. Crash Davis from Bull Durham (“…and I believe in long, soft, deep, wet kisses that last three days.”)
5. Ulysses Everett McGill from O Brother, Where Art Thou? (“Pete, Delmer, you two are dumber’n a bag of hammers.”)
6. M as played by Judi Dench in Casino Royale (James Bond: “I always thought ‘M’ was a randomly assigned initial. I had no idea it stood for–” M: “Utter one more syllable and I’ll have you killed.”)
7. Princess Leia. Can’t grow up when I did and not totally adore Princess Leia. She’s a better shot than all of them. (“Somebody get this giant walking carpet out of my way.”)
8. Cameron Frye from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. (“When Cameron was in Egypt’s land…let my…Cameron…go!”)
9. Emperor Kuzco from The Emperor’s New Groove (“No touchy! No touch!”)
10. Elizabeth Bennet. Okay, she’s technically a character from a book, but I have yet to see a movie version that doesn’t absolutely kick ass. Lizzy Bennet rocks.

I could go on for days about this topic. Good thing I have to stick to ten, huh?
