Favorites

Okay, I have decided to list my favorite antagonists and protagonists today. No special reason.

Favorite protagonists:

Percy Jackson (from Percy Jackson and the Olympians)

He's got a serious gift for ticking people off. And when it comes to girls, he's stuck in the middle between Rachel and Annabeth.

Auralia (from Auralia's Colors)

She's wild. Plays with animals that people are scared of. She has a talent for colors that astonishes everyone around her - and also alarms them because it's illegal.

Katniss (from The Hunger Games)

She's willing to do whatever to takes to protect her family and friends - even if it means she'll get killed in the process. She hunts illegally for what her family needs, knowing that if she ever gets caught, she'll be executed. However, when she shows up at the market with a turkey, everyone, even the people who are supposed to punish her for what she does, follows the standard protocol - bid on the drumsticks.

Favorite antagonists:

Mother Gothel (from Tangled)

She's rotten enough to kidnap a little girl, but treats the girl nicely. She keeps her in a tower, yes, but the tower is big and the girl has plenty to do. Mother Gothel is even willing to take a trip to the beach to get shells to make the girl paint - a three day trip.

Alexei Sarov (from Skeleton Key)

He's attempting to reinstate communism, but he's not willing to kill the spy they sent to find out what he was doing. He's even willing to adopt him, mostly because the spy reminds him of his son.

Tangled

Watched Tangled at last! I loved it! It was so funny! My favorite characters were Maximus the horse and Pascal. I especially liked the fact this movie was a musical. I would post some of the songs here but for some reason, I can't post any of the songs I find on youtube. For those of you who haven't seen the movie yet, I highly recommend it. I also reccomend you look up the songs on youtube. My favorite one was "I've Got A Dream". Has anyone who's seen it noticed that the king and queen never speak even once? And now for some quotes:


Mother Gothel: Look in that mirror. I see a strong, confident, beautiful young lady. [Rapunzel smiles] Mother Gothel: Oh look, you're here too. [laughs] Mother Gothel: I'm just teasing! Stop taking everything so seriously.


Flynn Rider: [sword-fighting with Maximus] You should know that this is the strangest thing I've ever done! [Max flicks the frying-pan from Flynn's hands] Flynn Rider: ... How 'bout best two out of three?


[first lines] Flynn Rider: This is the story of how I died.


Flynn Rider: [Flynn looking at his 'Wanted' poster] No... no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, this is bad, this is very very bad, this is really bad... They just can't get my nose right! Stabbington Brother: Who cares? Flynn Rider: Well, it's easy for you to say... [Looking at the Stabbington Brothers' 'Wanted' poster] Flynn Rider: [in awe] ... You guys look amazing.


Rapunzel: [there's a rustle in the bushes. Rapunzel jumps on Flynn's back, terrified] Is it ruffians? Thugs? Have they come for me? Flynn Rider: [a cute little bunny hops out of the bushes] Stay calm. It can probably smell fear.


Flynn Rider: Hey, Max! [throws him a bag of apples as he, Rapunzel, and Pascal row out to see the floating lanterns. Max gets a suspicious look on his face] Flynn Rider: What? I bought them! [Maximus starts chomping away happily at his apples] Flynn Rider: ... *most* of them! [Maximus starts and his eyes widen]


Rapunzel: I can't believe I did this. *I can't believe I did this!* Mother would be so furious. That's OK though, I mean what she doesn't know won't kill her. Oh my gosh. This would kill her. *This is so fun!* I, am a horrible daughter. I'm going back. *I am never going back!* I am a despicable human being. *Woo-hoo! Best. Day. Ever!* [Sobs]


Rapunzel: So mother, earlier I was saying tomorrow is a really big day, and you didn't really respond, so I'm just gonna tell you: IT'S MY BIRTHDAY! Tada! Mother Gothel: No no no, can't be. I distinctly remember, your birthday was last year. Rapunzel: That's the funny thing about birthdays, they're kind of an annual thing.


Rapunzel: Who's that? [the castle guards] Flynn Rider: They don't like me. Rapunzel: Who's that? [the Stabbington brothers] Flynn Rider: They don't like me either. Rapunzel: And who's *that*? [Maximus] Flynn Rider: Let's just assume for the moment that everyone in here doesn't like me!


Rapunzel: We made it. Flynn Rider: Her hair glows! Rapunzel: We're alive. We're alive! Flynn Rider: I didn't see that coming. Rapunzel: Eugene. Flynn Rider: The hair actually glows. Rapunzel: Eugene. Flynn Rider: Why does her hair glow! Rapunzel: Eugene! Flynn Rider: [almost in hysteria] What? Rapunzel: It doesn't *just* glow. Flynn Rider: [Pascal smiles at him smugly] Why is he smiling at me?


Flynn Rider: [from trailer] I could get used to a view like this. Yep, I'm used to it. Guys I want a castle.


Flynn Rider: [Upon being chased by the Palace Guards, Flynn and the Stabbington Brothers reach a dead end. They are facing a cliff] All right, okay, give me a boost, and I'll pull you up. Stabbington Brother: [the Stabbington Brothers look at each other] Give us the satchel first. Flynn Rider: What? I just... I can't believe that after all we've been through together, you don't... trust me? [the Stabbington Brothers look at Flynn straight in the eye and crickets chirp in the background] Flynn Rider: Ouch. [Flynn hands the satchel to them] Stabbington Brother: [Flynn climbs up the Stabbington Brothers and reaches the top of the cliff] Now help us up, pretty boy. Flynn Rider: Sorry... my hands are full. [Flynn cockily shows them the satchel he had stolen from them while climbing up and runs off]


Flynn-I have dreams like you, no really!
Just much less... touchy-feely,
They mainly happen somewhere warm and sunny,
On an island that I own,
Tanned and rested and alone,
Surrounded by enormous piles of money!


Hope everyone got a laugh out of those!
