Most popular SW character of all time

[Benjamin Korr]

Alright folks, lets hear from the top of your lungs, WHO IS THE GREATEST SW CHARACTER THAT WAS EVER BORN?!

 

Personally, I'm going to go with Obi-Wan Kenobi. Its just hard to beat his wit, at any point of his life, along with his devotion to the light side and his just flat-out good-natured self. I think all 6 movies were heavily centered around him. He is one of 4 characters that has a part in all 6 movies. Those 4 being himself, Anakin/Darth Vader, C-3PO and R2D2.

 

Now naturally we wouldnt say its all about the droids, they're just a nifty co-star in my mind. And Anakin, well, sure he plays a big part and Vader is definately a main focus. But Obi-Wan really sees all these events like no-one else does. Only he sees Anakin at every stage of his life and observes the changes of the universe around him. He has a very unique perspective, and I think it lends to the character.

 

So yeah, I give the all time vote hands down to good old Ben Kenobi!

[Sturm]

Me.

[Dark_Raven]

Revan of course.

Star Wars characters are not limited to jedi and sith.

[Xard]

[DarthReliguim]

The great Exar Kun

[SamuraiGaijin]

Han Solo ... is the classic scoundrel with a heart of gold, has a cool sidekick, gets the girl, always has something witty to say, drives the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy

[Guest Accept]

Revan.

[CoM_Solaufein]

Revan.

[Lord XAN]

My vote goes for for Vader. I kinda think he is the most POPULAR character. IMO

Of course they're not. But seeings as usually the most popular ones ARE Jedi/Sith, and seeings as there is only room to post 10 options in a poll, it would have been slightly difficult to post them all. Thus the "Other" option.

 

Anyone wanna post a "Owned" under this post now?

 

And yes, I agree with Samurai, Han Solo is definately one of the top chars. Very hard to beat indeed.

Obi-wan ALL the way!!

Both old and young

[Exmortis]

Hands down; Vader. He was the icon of kick-ass Villains in the seventies and he became even more popular when the other two movies kicked out.

You shouldn't have made it a poll then. You're less likely to get actualy results because while nine options represent one character, one of the options represents almost an infinite number of other characters. I am exagerating, but it might as well be.

 

Of course, with the being a Knights og the Old Republic forum, I'd guess most people would just choose either Revan or Exile.

[LadyCrimson]

Kind of a toss up between Obi-Wan and Han for me.

HK-47

[Calax]

depends... for those that read the books it'd probably be Thrawn for sheer awesomeness.

 

Everyone else would either be vader or luke.

[James Dunn]

I like Yoda, but Revan is right up there too. :cool:

[cretialuv7]

obi -wan...if we are talking about the movies and such...as far as kotor goes...goodness....i would have to say revan....

[Dark_Raven]

For a non Jedi, HK-47 wins it. Killing is his business and business is good.

[Pop]

HAN SOLOOOO. the pimp de la resistance.

[Sturm]

A Sith Grunt, nothing stops those lil bastards!

[Silvershadow]

I'd be really hard pressed to pick a single one... hell, I'd be hard pressed to pick a single one per era.

 

So I'd have to say...

 

Old Republic: Obi-Wan and Mace Windu (because he saved Skor II. Nice man.)

Rebellion era: Han Solo

New Republic/NJO: Thrawn (cause, really, how can you not like Thrawn?), Mara Jade, Anakin Solo

 

As an aside, while I don't have a specific hands-down favourite character, I do have a hands-down most hated character... and that would be Borsk Fey'lya. He is the reason I have come to hate all Bothans.
