45 Best Movie Characters Recap

The year's third list (after the 60 Best Television Moments and 75 Best Songs, both of which I could probably update to make them better now, but ah, well) has come to a close and once again I have to provide a recap! I am a fan of this list. I think it's solid. No one is missing, but everyone in the list deserves to be here. It was a fun time counting down the best of the best. Characters are always such a great thing when done right. Thanks for letting me do it. More daily lists will be back to help countdown the school year next year!
