It'll take a lot more than words and guns,
A whole lot more than riches and muscle.
The hands of the many must join as one.
And together we'll cross the river.

OMG. How can The Mariner, from one of the worst movies ever made, have more votes than Rupert Pupkin?!?!?

Remember, Remember, The Fifth of November, The Gunpowder, Treason, and Plot.
Because he was a cooler character? It's not about the movie, it's about the character. And that Mariner was one badass dude.
I didn't vote for him, but he was still a badass dude.
Margaret Emmie Mackey Catoe, you are, have been, and always will be my soulmate, and I love you.
Con todo mi corazon, por todo de mis dias. And I always will, in this life and into the next.

Sam... Did you see the same movie as I did? He had gills. That makes him about 1/3 as interesting as Aquaman, with none of the coolnes... oh yeah, even Aquaman isn't cool.

Yeah he had gills, but he also had that kick ass boat, PLUS he used himself as fucking bait to score some lunch. He was a badass.

*BUMP*
Come on you last minute stragglers! Let's get those votes in! This poll closes later today!
No, not yet. There is nothing Ichi The Killer could possibly say or do that would make him cooler than The Dude.
I just also feel that The Dude's character is way more recognizable. There's a whole convention dedicated to The Big Lebowski. I doubt Ichi The Killer has that kind of following.

this poll is breaking my heart.
Looks like we're going to have our first tie-breaker thread ...
DAMMIT I missed the voting. Oh well. Yo Adrian! Rocky wins in my book!
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago. - Edgar Allan Poe
Bunch together a group of people deliberately chosen for strong religious feelings, and you have a practical guarantee of dark morbidities expressed in crime, perversion, and insanity. - H.P. Lovecraft
Sorry I missed the vote.
Raymond; definitely. definitely
All that's left of what we were is what we have become.
The two are so different as to not even be comparable.

The character we were voting on is Kakihara.
