What now? Breaking these rules might result in a ban. You'd better rectify this.

Mindship
1. The Bowman Star Child (2001: a space odyssey).
2. Gorgo's mom (Gorgo).
3. John McClane (Die Hard series).
4. Elvira (Elvira, Mistress of the Dark).
5. Thanos (only credit cameos, but he is already looking badass beyond words).

quanchi112
I do not consider die hard sci fi personally.

jaden101
I'd probably add the operative from Serenity to my list and make it 6 cos **** the rules.

Patient_Leech
In no particular order...

Engineer(s) / Elizabeth Shaw - Prometheus
Rocket Raccoon - Guardians of the Galaxy
Richard B. Riddick
Agent Smith - The Matrix Trilogy
Caesar - Rise/Dawn of the Planet of the Apes


Whoever's idea it was to turn a raccoon into a sci-fi action/adventure character was a genius. And then the execution and voice work of Bradley Cooper perfected it. Brilliantly hilarious.

That's a good idea for a versus thread

Robtard
There's been a Simpson Vs Griffin, iirc.

Unless you meant a McClane Vs thread, those are always the best thumb up

marwash22
you're out of your goddamn mind if you think McClane has tanked more than Peter Griffin. Peter Griffin makes Punisher look like Mr. Glass.

Surtur
Peters fights with the Chicken are such things that would kill John McClane.

Tzeentch
How the **** is John McClane a science fiction character?

I hate all of you.

edit- Oh I see, it's a running gag in the thread.

I still hate all of you.

Trocity
Emperor Palpatine, Captain Jean-Luc Picard, Morpheus, John Preston, Rick Deckard.

Douglas Quaid gets an honorable mention also.

Trocity
I actually like that about him for some reason. He can go from unlimited power to a feeble old man, back to cackling like a madman.

Ian McDiarmid was perfect for Sidious imo.

Ian McDiarmid was perfect for Sidious imo. Ian was perfect for the role. He was great in film but I don't tend to gravitate towards the cowardly types. It's perfect for the character but not something I am into.

I hope to see Darth Maul return to the big screen in a Star Wars anthology film.

A fellow poster in the SW section shared spoilers from Dark Disciple that he managed to find.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SPOILER ALERT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!














Supposedly Dooku ends up killing Ventress and Vos falls to the Dark Side, becoming Dooku's apprentice. Discussion about the subject veered towards Vos potentially hunting Maul down for Dooku/Sidious, but I don't know how likely this is. The Quinlan Vos I know would get skewered by Darth Maul.

Perhaps a joint effort of some sort? Regardless, Sidious won't want him running around freely and Maul's story will need to be tied up somehow.

Just a basic summary as I don't want to read spoilers. Use spoiler tags next time. Like as in is this a rebels episode, a graphic novel, comic or what is this dark disciple supposed to be. What medium.

Isn't the only movie the Doctor was in, the US TV movie? I'm not sure if that counts or not.
