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.

Yeah, this is true. Hunger Games would've worked better as a standalone or a series with a different protagonist for each installment.

Knives Chau

Rating: 71/100

I used to really hate Knives as a character in the graphic novels, but in the movie, witnessing the highlights actually being punched out of someone's hair was pretty phenomenal. And the timing of the punchlines with Knives was perfection. Overall, a great example of someone who needed to be brought to screen in order to flourish. Usually the opposite is true.

Buffy Summers

Rating: 70/100
An enjoyable enough character, but I've never really been sold on Buffy as a franchise. The plotlines are generally not my thing, and something about Whedon dialogue works better for me in a show like Dollhouse. Still, SMG carries the character with her charisma.

Great character. No doubt about it. One of the triumverate of great espionage JBs (with Jason Bourne and James Bond). He's earned his place in the upper echelons of 21st century TV icons thanks to a characterization that is competent but not bulletproof.

Chandler Bing

Rating: 98/100
Stands to this day as one of the greatest TV funnyman characters of all time. The rise of sarcasm in popular culture really is epitomized in the character of Chandler. As an actual human being, he comes across as one of the more realistic Friends of the bunch, right down to the drudgery of his job being this self-contained arc that doesn't really bleed into his personal life. I've always enjoyed that aspect of Chandler.

Jordi Chin (Watch Dogs)

Fine for a supporting character, but dragged down by the wholly derivative and uninteresting narrative of Watch Dogs that tends to capsize most of what is interesting in the main cast.

Black Manta

Rating: 67/100
I'm not a huge fan of Black Manta, honestly. The movie painted him as an aquatic Killmonger of sorts, and I was much more drawn to Ocean Master in every medium. Black Manta is a B+ player, perfect for a team up thanks to a fantastic design and memorable power set. He's just not star vehicle material.

A fairly strong Marvel villain, but one that I've never really felt drawn to. Well built, strong fundamentals, but lacking something in the execution.

Peter Venkman

Rating: 82/100
Pretty much the quintessential Bill Murray character. Just nails the Murray persona in every respect, right down to no-selling everything bizarre about the plot of Ghostbusters. His goals are more pragmatic than the rest of the 'Busters, and that makes him special.

Miles Morales

Rating: 72/100
A great character weighed down by really boring storylines. Thank goodness we've sent him back to the Ultimate Universe. I think that, in the end, the hardest part of being Miles is being forced to constantly sit as the follow-up to the best version of Peter Parker ever. They should have worked side-by-side in the UMU for a few years at least. Hell, Peter should have transitioned into a different superhero role. Lord knows there were a ton of them left open after Ultimatum.

Sora (Kingdom Hearts)

Rating: 65/100
Nostalgia sometimes clouds my judgment, and despite Sora being a relatively awful character in terms of actual writing, I still have a soft spot for the guy. But damn, KH has the absolute worst schlock of dialogue in Square Enix's arsenal.

He's fine. Left 4 Dead characters are pretty one-note and forgettable. Chock it up to no real characterization.

Eliza Doolittle (My Fair Lady)

Rating: 78/100
Eliza is the magician's handwave to disguise the real main character - Henry Higgins. Eliza is charming and wonderful and her transformation is definitely eye-opening, but the REAL transformation occurs within Higgins. And Eliza obscures the obvious and allows Higgins to change with subtlety and nuance. I love it.

Phoenix Wright

Rating: 73/100
As far as main characters go, there's no complaint from me here. I guess there's nothing that particularly lifts him into that strong top tier of great legal characters. It's tough to be compared to Emmy-winning icons like James Spader and Sam Waterson. But for a general middle-of-the-road all-ages affair, Phoenix does his job.

I have a weird relationship with the Final Fantasy VIII cast. I like a lot of them in a vacuum, and when I replay the game, I always am reminded how much I enjoy them overall. But as time passes, I forget them quickly. I chock it up to Rinoa sucking so hard that she brings everyone else down. I also think that there is something about the game that lacks that spark that sticks with you long after the game is complete.

I don't separate Wedge from Legends and canon, but I'm a huge mark for the Rogue Squadron books, and I daresay that they would make a phenomenal Disney+ show if given the right budget. Wedge is a fantastic and consistent lead in the series, and I'm a sucker for a great military character who is rewarded for consistently pushing orders in the attempt to improve both the organizational structure and also the orders themselves.
