Top 10 characters of all time

What makes a good story? Great characters. Characters we're drawn to. Characters that we relate to, or characters we wish to be. Here are my top 10 favorite characters. Again, this is my opinion, so if you don't like what you see, go bitch to your mom or something.

10. SPEEDY/ROY HARPER

Speedy is so far my favorite superhero sidekick. He was raised by Navajo Indians, and became a master archer.  My favorite storylines involving speedy is the time he became a Heroin addict, and the time he lost his arm. Speedy for the most part is a tragic character, but he's got great friends to help him through it. And like most superheroes, he's unrealistically good looking.

9. GREEN LANTERN/HAL JORDAN

At one point in time, I was obsessed with Hal Jordan. For a brief moment, he was my favorite superhero, but then the movie came out, and I remembered Superman will always be my number one guy. But I will always have a soft spot for Green Lantern. Anyways, Hal Jordan is the second Green Lantern, and arguably the best. I know that Hal is kind of lame compared to the black John Stewart and the gay Allan Scott, but Hal Jordan is my favorite Green Lantern. Either him, or the talking squirrel.

8. CINDERELLA



I loves me a good Fairy Tale, and the best Fairy Tale ever is Cinderella, the story that has it's own version in every single country. Cinderella is many things. She's black, she's white. She's good, she's bad. She's light, she's dark. She's g rated movie, she's XXX movie. She's feminist, she's old fashioned. And how could she be so many things at once? Because there's so many versions of her story. You can make Cinderella whatever you want her to be. Don't like the time she leaves the ball? make it 3 AM. Don't like the rushed romance? Make her independent and not want to marry the prince. A great character is one you can make up.

7.  PHOEBE BUFFAY



Phoebe Buffay is my favorite character from Friends. Most people like Chandler or Rachel, but not me. I love me some Phoebe. She's a a character I don't see in most sitcoms these days. Hey, How I Met Your Mother. Where's your loony eccentric friend character? Don't have one? How about you, Big Bang Theory? No? Just a group of nerds and one hot girl? All, right. Your missing out, I guess. Anyways, Phoebe's backstory is this. When she was a little girl, her mom killed herself, and her stepdad went to prison, so Phoebe had to live in the streets, unlike her twin sister Ursula, who was probably put in a foster home. After a disappointing childhood and some tough teenaged years, Ursula found a road to Aroma therapy and became roommates with Monica, who's brother is Ross, who is in love with Rachel.  Across the street from them is Joey, who is roommates with Chandler, who will soon marry Monica. Yeah, it's all a big circle.  One interesting thing is Actress Lisa Kudrow was doing two sitcoms at the time. She was starring in Friends, and played a side character in Mad About You, two NBC shows that were next to each other on the time block. So, the show writers decided to make the two characters twin sisters. And that's how Phoebe and Ursula became twin sisters.  

6. HANNA MARIN



Filling out 6 spot is another ditzy blonde. Hanna Marin from ABC Family's only good show, Pretty Little Liars. Hanna is the funniest, and saddest character in the show and books. In her early teens, her mom and dad got a divorce, causing her to eat her feelings out. She gained several pounds, and her "friend" Alison Dilaurentis coined the nickname "Hefty Hanna" When the girls were young, Hanna was often the butt of Ali's every joke. But when Ali disappeared, she became friends with a girl Ali used to bully and became the school's popular girl. She lost some pounds and gained some confidence. What I like about Hanna is that she's the funny girl of the group. She's always the one who says the funny zingers and one liners.

5. SPYRO THE DRAGON



Do I like Skylanders? Yes. Do I like Spyro's "not main character" role in Skylanders? No. Do I hate Spyro's new messed up, disgusting, ugly design? It's debatable. Do I love Spyro and all of the Spyro games, even the bad ones? Hell yeah!!! Spyro is my favorite video game character ever. Period. If I had to save one video game franchise in an ocean full of overrated Pokemon games and stupid, violent M rated games, I'd choose Spyro the Dragon. We can all learn a lesson from Spyro. Spyro is a tiny dragon, yet manages to save an entire race of dragons. He's also got a really cool dragonfly sidekick called Sparx, who is the best video game sidekick ever. So hopefully someday, I will see a Spyro video game similar to the old one.

4. SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS



Spongebob is my childhood Idol. I grew up on Spongebob, and when I have kids, they will too. What I love about Spongebob is that no matter what, he's an Optimist. Even though he has a horrible job and a nasty next door neighbor, he looks at it like a blessing. I'd kill myself before I become a loser who permanently works at a restaurant, but Spongebob sees it as the best job ever. The best Spongebob episodes are always the ones that came out in the early 2000's. The new ones kinda suck, and seems like it was made for the brain dead generation of the 2010's. The main reason is that after the first Spongebob movie, The original crew left and was replaced by a new set of writers. Probably a bad idea. But no matter what,  Spongebob is cartoon royalty.

3. GODZILLA



Godzilla, like Spongebob was only good in the beginning. the movies that came afterwards range from bad to mediocre. But aside from that, Godzilla, King of the Monsters is one of my favorite classic monster movies, and Godzilla, is my favorite giant monster ever. What I love about him is that he's a cautionary tale of Nuclear destruction. Godzilla was once a deep sea cave dwelling dinosaur of a certain species, but concentrated levels of Nuclear radiation mutated him into a atomic ray breathing behemoth. Godzilla is also a tragic character. In the beginning, Godzilla is an animal deformed by a human creation, and in the ending, He's destroyed by another human made weapon. It shows how humans can really ruin the life of another species. Now that's deep.

2. RAPUNZEL



I have been in love with the Rapunzel Fairy Tale for a long time. I love it so much, I remember the time I first read it. Cinderella might be the best fairy tale, but Rapunzel is the one I hold dearest to my heart. And then when Disney made Tangled, I only loved her more. In Tangled, Rapunzel is spiced up a bit, turning her from a Damsel in distress into a quirky, rebellious teenager.  When Rapunzel was a baby, she was a princess. Her hair is golden blonde because of a magic flower her mother drank to heal herself. But the witch who was previously using it kidnaps her and places her in a high tower hidden inside a valley. As she gets older, she gets more rebellious and fascinated by the outside world, especially the mysterious floating lights that appear on her birthday every year.

1. SUPERMAN





So, I sleep in a bunk bed. I sleep in the bottom bunk, and the one who occupies the top bunk is a life sized Superman doll I got for Christmas. That's how much I love the Man of Steel, and I mean Superman. Not the movie. That movie sucked. Superman will always be my favorite. In an ocean full of Batmans and Avengers, The big fish I caught has an S-shield on it. I've watched every single Superman movie, watched Superman: The Animated Series, and bought Super Scribblenauts for Superman's sake. What I like about Superman is how he truly is alone. Now, anyone can be Batman or Spider-man, but Superman isn't someone you can be, he's someone you could only dream to be. And unlike Batman, who claims he works alone, when he has a dozen sidekicks, Superman truly is alone. Aside from Supergirl and Superdog, Kal-El is by himself. Another thing I like about Supes is that he doesn't wear a mask, so that people can see he's just one of them, instead of being shrouded by mystery, like all the superhero movies that came out in the early 2000's. Superman truly is my favorite superhero and character of all time.

Top 10 Famous hair of all time!!! (MOVIES, TV, VIDEO GAMES, EVERYTHING!!!!)

Hair. Arguably the most beautiful body part of a human being. We cut it, we style it, we jel it, we mousse it, we do lots with our hair, and the thing we do most with hair is copy other people's hair, most particularly famous hair. And speaking of famous hair, here's my top 10 famous hair from movies, TV, video games, anime, everything!!!

10. KATNISS EVERDEEN 

FROM: THE HUNGER GAMES

STYLE: DUTCH BRAID

COLOR: CHOCOLATE BROWN

Katniss Everdeen's brunette braid hair has become somewhat of an iconic hairstyle. What's interesting about it is that it's a ditch braid that goes down sideways. Everytime she's in the arena, she's always rocking that braid!

9. BAYONETTA

FROM: BAYONETTA/BAYONETTA 2

STYLE: HIGH PONYTAIL BEEHIVE/PIXIE CUT

COLOR: BLACK/RAVEN

Bayonetta's hair is unique because it's the first time a video game character has ever used her hair as a weapon. In the first game, it was an unrealistically high ponytail. In the second game, Bayonetta cut her long locks to rock a pixie cut. When you're fighting the forces of heaven and hell, make sure your look good while doing it.

8. SON GOKU

FROM: DRAGON BALL Z

STYLE: SPIKED

COLOR: BLACK/BLONDE

As a kid, Dragon Ball Z was one of my favorite cartoons of all time. Goku is also one of my guy crushes. Let's just say, if he was real, I would get with that in a saiyan heartbeat. Anyways, Goku's hair changes alot throughought the series. In the beginning, it was black. then when he went super saiyan, he went blonde.

7.  LUCY RICARDO

FROM: I LOVE LUCY

STYLE: THE POODLE

COLOR: RED

When it came to sitcom hair, it went down to Lucy from I Love Lucy and Rachel from Friends, and Lucy strangled Rachel when it came to the best hair. 

6. LEIA

FROM: STAR WARS

STYLE: Double Cinnamon swirls

COLOR: BROWN

Leia has a lot of weird hairstyles throughout the original Star Wars trilogy, but the one that everyone remembers is the honey buns-like hair she wears in the first movie. Leia needs to fire her hairdresser. I'm just kidding! It's not her fault. It turns out, weird hair is something she inherited from her mother, Padme Amidala, who is the queen of both the planet Naboo and the planet of supercuts. 

5. RAPUNZEL

FROM: TANGLED

STYLE: UNSTYLED

COLOR: GOLDEN BLONDE

You can't have a list of famous hair without the queen of famous hair. Yes, at one point, every girl wanted to Rapunzel's beautiful golden hair as much as they wanted Cinderella's ball gown and glass slippers. But one difference about the Disney version is that Rapunzel's hair is more than for climbing. Rapunzel's hair is magic! It can heal, glow, grab and hold a lot of weight. 

4. CLARK KENT/SUPERMAN

FROM: SUPERMAN/SUPERMAN RETURNS/ ACTION COMICS

STYLE: SLICKED BACK WITH ONE KISS CURL

COLOR: BLACK

Whether either Superman or Batman is the best superhero is still up for debate (My opinion: SUPERMAN RULES, BATMAN DROOLS) But if there's one superhero with the most iconic hairstyle, that's Superman's suave classic look. You can't cosplay as superman without that kiss curl. 

3. ELVIS PRESLEY

STYLE: POMPADOUR

COLOR: BLACK

Elvis and Superman have very similar hairstyles, which is why I put them next to each other, but Elvis' hairstyle is a little more iconic than Superman's. And if you ask all the Elvis impersonators in Las Vegas, they'd agree with me. 

2. MARILYN MONROE

STYLE:  PAGEBOY

COLOR: PLATINUM

Marilyn Monroe is a Hollywood icon, and one of the first sex symbols ever. One thing that audiences were attracted to is her curled blonde hair. 

1. AUDREY HEPBURN/ HOLLY GOLIGHTLY

FROM: BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S

STYLE: BUN

COLOR: BROWN WITH BLONDE HIGHLIGHTS

Way before I knew about Breakfast at Tiffany's and Audrey Hepburn, I always saw a picture of a woman sitting at a table wearing a black dress and a tiara. I saw that image everywhere! Then I was like "Where is this from?" then I did research, and found out about Hepburn and the movie. Audrey Hepburn is a true Hollywood gem. She's a classy kind of sexy. If Marilyn Monroe was the college girl guys hit on, Audrey Hepburn was the classy woman you'd meet at a first date.

The Story

Barbie as Rapunzel

Once upon a time, in a distant kingdom, lived a servant girl named Rapunzel, who worked for Dame Gothel, a powerful Enchantress. But when Gothel finds out Rapunzel had been sneaking off to the nearby kingdom to meet a boy, she turns Rapunzel's bedroom into a high tower with no door. For a while, everything seems hopeless, but with the help of a baby dragon, a talking rabbit, and a mysterious paintbrush that appeared out of nowhere, Rapunzel's dream of freedom might just come true, 

Tangled

Once upon a time, There was a magic flower that gives eternal life and youth. A woman named Gothel used this flower to keep herself young for hundreds of years. But things are shaken up when the magic flower is taken by palace guards and given to the pregnant Queen, who was deathly sick. The flower saves the Queen, and the magic of the flower is passed on to the newborn baby, giving her beautiful, golden hair. Her birthday is celebrated, but that celebration is short lived when the infant princess is kidnapped by Gothel, who named the infant baby Rapunzel. Rapunzel was taken to a high tower, where Gothel continued to use Rapunzel's ever growing hair. But as Rapunzel Grew into a feisty teenager, she wanted to leave her tower even more, and with the help of a handsome rogue, her dreams might come true. 

Animal Companions

Tangled has two very likable Animal sidekicks. One is Rapunzel's pet Chameleon, and the other is a police...horse. But over at the Barbie world, Rapunzel has a talking rabbit and a baby dragon. A baby dragon. A. Baby. Dragon. No police horse can top a baby dragon. Point goes to barbie!

Resembling the original story...

Both these stories stray very far from the original story for obvious reasons. you know, Rapunzel get's knocked up and pops out two babies in the dessert. But while one strays far, the other goes even farther away, and that's the barbie version. I mean, in the Barbie movie, the only thing resembling the original is the tower and the hair, and it's not even that long! the witch has to use a dragon to get to the top of the tower, which isn't even a real tower, it's more of a stretched out bedroom. And while Tangled does drift away from the source material, everything a Rapunzel story should have is there. Doorless tower. Long hair. Witch climbs up hair. guy climbs up hair. Point goes to tangled

Personality

Both these ladies are good hearted, but one is spunky, adventurous, clever, smart, feisty, and the other one is kind of bland...Just like a Barbie doll. Point goes to Tangled.

Wardrobe

In Tangled, Rapunzel's fashion choices always seemed flat. That corset and those sleeve puffs? Uh-uh! Not gonna happen! But with Barbie, you know she's gonna be well dressed, and well dressed she was. Her ending Masquerade ball dress looks like a blend of Disney Rapunzel's dress and Cinderella's Ball gown. Point goes to Barbie.

Love Interest

Flynn Rider Rivals Prince Eric, Aladdin and Hercules as Disney's most handsome character. That's right. He's that good looking. But Barbie's love interest looks like a generic Ken doll...Probably because he is. Point goes to Flynn

And the Winner is...

Top 10 Disney Princesses

Here are my top 10 Disney Princesses. I'm not going by the official Disney Princess Line up, I'm going by who I think is deserving of the title. I'm not only doing the cartoon ones either. Also, Elsa is not on this list! She is a Queen, not a princess/

10. Snow White.

Today, Snow White is seen as an anti-feminist character. All she wants is to get married and cook food. But when you really think of it, she is the mother figure of these dwarfs. she teaches them manners and sings to them, and Anyone who says being a Mother is easy, clearly has never been one.

9. Giselle

Giselle is Unique, because she is the only princess to be both cartoon and real. And she's also the first Princess to learn what a real relationship is supposed to be like. 

8. Vanellope Von Schweetz 

If you take Strawberry Shortcake and mix her with Mario Kart, then you will get Vanellope. What I love about Vanellope is that she had an option to become a Princess, but Instead gave it up to be president. 

7. Ariel 

Ariel is a Mermaid, and everyone loves Mermaids. I know I do. She also has a beautiful singing voice. But it's not the typical boring Siren's Melody. She has range, like a Broadway singer. She also has pretty red hair.

6.  Mulan

Mulan is Disney's first Asian princess. Her Father is going to be sent to war, so she disguises herself as a man and takes his place. She's also the first Princess to wield a weapon. 

5. Mia Thermopolis

Mia Thermopolis Is Anne Hathaway's breakout role. A San Francisco Uggy who finds out her Grandmother is a Queen, which makes her a Princess. After a makeover of her face and her personality, this Ugly Duckling manages to turn into a Swan. 

4. Anna 

I have to admit, Anna is a little on the slow side. She's not very smart, or graceful. So what's so likable about her? Her Optimism. She's always looking at the bright side of things. 

3. Tiana

Tiana is Disney's first Black Princess. Alot of famous black singers wanted to voice her, but it went to Broadway Actress Anika Noni Rose. She is committed and hard working. 

2. Cinderella

To be clear, no, I am not talking about the original Cinderella. I'm talking about the 2015 revamp. This Cinderella took what was good from the original, and added a modern twist to it. She doesn't meet the prince at the ball, she meets him in the forest, after she saves a stag from being hunted. 

Honorable Mention

Belle

1. Rapunzel

Fact: The Rapunzel story is my favorite fairy tale. Ever. And when I found out Disney was doing a Rapunzel movie, I almost fainted. And when I saw it it didn't disappoint. Rapunzel was naive, spunky, ambitious and compassionate. Not to mention her beautiful golden hair. She's the best.
