Sam Axe (Burn Notice)

Rating: 66/100
While the character is given its due in the form of a portrayal from the fantastic Bruce Campbell, the writing of Burn Notice is fairly uninspired. It really is the definition of a USA Network show, which focuses on clothing stylings and snappy rejoinders at the expense of any real substance.

Goku

Rating: 45/100

Fairly uninteresting. The character kind of shrugs off all character development in favor of general bland heroics. When people complain about Superman, I often hear criticism that don't apply to Superman and simply apply to Goku instead.

Thor (MCU)

Rating: 77/100
Thor sits on the edge of being a little too accessible of a character to me. What I most enjoy about the comic version of Thor is the separation between my culture and is. I put a premium on that Shakespearean quality of speech and his very different understanding of morality. By Ragnarok, he's become a dumb jock, and by Endgame he's evolving into a very human character. While it's different and fresh, it's not necessarily the right take for the character.

Anagram posted...
Spock

Rating: 76/100
I appreciate the Nimoy Spock immeasurably, and Quinto's take is very fun. I enjoy the aggressiveness to the character. But overall, I've never been particularly compelled to desire more of the character. In some ways, he can be very two-dimensional.

Murphiroth posted...
Gaige (Borderlands 2)

Rating: 72/100
Cute and just eccentric enough to be fun, but ultimately Gaige has never been given the opportunity to really let her personality loose. Hopefully in BL3, we'll get to see more of what made Lilith and the gang so great in BL2.

Hannibal Lecter

Rating: 60/100
This primarily comes from the excellent Hannibal TV series. In movies, I've never seen much depth to the character at all. Really just not my thing. In fact, cartoonishly goofy, hiding behind this guise of horror that always seems to get a pass from audiences.

Iron Man (MCU)

Rating: 73/100

At the outset of the MCU, I loved Iron Man. It slowly tapered with the team films until Civil War really put some meat into the character. After Civil War, however, it became a game of just waiting for his eventual denouement thanks to the presentation of Iron Man as someone who is constantly ready to hang up his hat. Very Spider-Man, honestly.

Not really much of a character. It's a fine enough dinosaur stand-in for Smash, but I don't have any real attachment to the character. It's just a functional frontman for an entire species.

Captain America (MCU)

Rating: 81/100
Right up until his ending, Cap was well-built. As wrong as he was in Civil War, it was an appropriate position for the character, and a faithful adaptation of the comic character. However, there are times where the character was kind of sacrificed for the larger MCU. I think a deeper dive into Cap's culture clash with a changing American government and society was really necessary to propel him into the upper echelons.

Shadow the Edgehog

Rating: 35/100

When I was young, this was my thing. As an adult, I see Shadow as a character with no potential at all. Trapped in a personality that can only be affected by a writer, Shadow isn't a means to telling a good story, he's a means to being an obstacle in good storytelling. When you invest too much time in making a character your spirit animal incarnate, it gains the disadvantage of never being able to grow organically or interact naturally with anything.

One of those Alfred-type utility characters. Unfortunately, Threeps is the same schtick with no change, and the schtick doesn't play well for me. It's just grating and repetitive like Who Let the Dogs Out.

Doctor Fate (Kent Nelson)

Rating: 88/100
Such a great, unique character. The idea of being shackled to another being, vying for control of yourself, always makes for compelling storytelling. But whereas someone like the Hulk is uncontrollable, the switch between Kent and Nabu is always willing and the reasons why anyone would cede control to Nabu can be pretty inventive. Kent is definitely somewhat of an everyman, but as he grows older and embraces the arcane, his desire for isolation in the macabre makes him such a juicy little piece of the DCU.

I have a soft spot for Godot, and the Ace Attorney series generally has some excellent characters that are forced into small roles given the size of an AA game. But the bursts of personality and occasional smatterings of development always provide a concentrated dose of flavor that I appreciate.

Galadriel

Rating: 82/100
There are very few characters that just ooze that enchanting charismatic quality of a truly timeless character. The beauty of the eternally wise and beautiful Galadgriel sort of transcends Lord of the Rings and reaches into that mythological, legendary quality from the tales of yore. And if you lump in the movie version, no one really exudes the same magic that Cate Blanchett does. One in a million.

ZenOfThunder posted...
Taskmaster

Rating: 80/100
Not one of my top tier Marvel villains, but close. Definitely the real answer to Deathstroke at Marvel. Deadpool is cute and all, but Taskmaster and Deathstroke are true analogues. Too bad that Taskmaster is never quite given that prime placement to really explore the character. We get spots of it here and there, but never a really concentrated starring turn. Also, Taskmaster would always lose to Deathstroke, according Identity Crisis.

NFUN posted...
The Riddler (Jim Carrey)

Rating: 64/100
My love for the Riddler does carry over to this portrayal somewhat, but Frank Gorshin did a much better job capturing the attitude of the character. I'm also not very partial to the supervillain look of Riddler. I prefer the suit and the bowler hat, a more subdued approach to the character. Vaudevillian performances are fine, but the contained rage against a system barely beneath the surface that you get in the comics is much better than the functional Plastic Man we get in its stead.

Katniss Everdeen

Rating: 64/100
Pretty great in the first film, but she gets progressively more dull and generic as the series progresses. I think the survivalist aspect of the first movie really gives her some palpable stakes that I think the rest of the series kind of lose as they rush to create big moments. The more superheroic she becomes, the less I care about her.

I prefer Futurama to both the Simpsons and Family Guy, but I enjoy none of them. Bender is the biggest reason I don't enjoy Futurama. To me, loud characters are just never really funny. Decibel volume is almost always inversely proportional to how much I like an animated character.

He's fine. Of the Gotham cops, he kind of is the most generic of the major ones. I'm much more into Montoya and especially I've always had a soft spot for Marcus Driver. Josie Mac is pretty great too.
