Knowing how "off" these lists always wind up being, I'm somewhat surprised to see such high placement for my personal favorite all time movie character, Detective John McClane at #12.
Also a little surprised Vader was beat out by Tyler Durden.

As long as Rick Blaine is on it I can kind of stand it. Darth Vader is way too high though. The pre-quels killed pretty much all of his remaining mystique which is what made him such a bad ass, at least in my mind.

Love a list that places Juno above Atticus Finch

That is pretty worrisome. I considered Juno for the most part a kind of unlikeable and unrealistic character for practically the whole first half of that movie, until the conflict really started to kick in for the second half, and that's where it got better for me.

Yes, this is a ridiculous list.
Tyler Durden? C'mmmonnn! Brick from Anchorman? Pleeeaaasseee
I was happy to see Marty McFly on the list. Rocky should be way higher as should the wicked witch of the west.
I'm a huuuuuuuge Fight Club fan, but even I'm skiddish about seeing Tyler Durden at the top. He definitely belongs on the list, but I like the previous comment about it seeming like this was put together by junior high boys.

Tyler Durder #1??? He's maybe Top 50.
Where's James Kirk? Where's Spock? Where's Khan? Where's Obi Wan Kenobi? Where's The Butcher? Where's "Brighteyes" Taylor? Where's Clark Griswold? Where's Peter Gibbons? Where's Bill Lumbergh?

Sam from Benny and Joon Navin Johnson Charles Anthony Bruno Raymond Babbitt
And yeah, Juno probably shouldn't be on there. Good character, but not top 100 quality.
