Helen Lyle, a character I can really get behind!

metternich1815 07-30-2013 02:46 PM

Scream Queen Adrienne Barbeau as Stevie Wayne, Helen Lyle from Candyman, and May from May, all excellent characters. I guess I will go with Helen Lyle, but it was very close between all three.

I had been meaning to do that for a while. I finally changed it a few minutes ago.

Now is the best time for it (I hope).

I have put a limitation for the tournament though - only ONE lead per film. That way it will allow us to have a bit more diversity in the tourney and, let's admit it, there's always ONE lead character which gets to hog the limelight AND the movie (there being very, very few exceptional films which score otherwise).

Sorry folks, no mainstream/popular villains here. The lead could be an anti-hero/anti-heroine/villainous character, but pure villains get their fair share of attention (and threads/tournament). Not here.

This will start later in the day. Let the anticipation begin!

Say, V, can you clarify what we are voting for? What is the criteria? How good the actor did as the character? How much we liked the character in the film? To be sarcastic -- how much we like the actor? What criteria are you asking us to judge?

Whichever works for you.
