Wow. One femal character out of the first ten listed and not a single non-white character (no, Darth Vader doesn't count).
White Hollywood is white.

Meh. I don't know if you'd count characters who existed in other medium before they made it to film (e.g. Batman) as 'Movie characters' TBH. And too much genre stuff. What about the great characters John Wayne or James Stewart played for example?

That's a performance not a character.

Could I make an argument for Steve Stifler?

Fight Club and a very overrated Coen brothers movie called The Big Lebowski. I personally think it's one of those movie critic pyramid schemes of 'I'll say this is cool because it's the Coens, rather than say it meant feck all', that eventually leaves Joe Average thinking 'I paid money for this?'. Cos someone else was afraid of having an honest opinion and told them it was really good. This tends to happen with the likes of David Lynch, Nicolas Winding Refn (Drive), and anyone who recently made a directorial comeback, really.

Henry Fonda in 12 Angry Men. Clint Eastwood in Fistfull of Dollars. Cool Hand Luke. Princess Mononoke. Too many.

Precisely. There are many much better characters out there.

Lebowski, yeah, that was a WTF? film. I've never managed to watch all of it. In fact the only films of theirs I liked were the Hudsucker Proxy and O Brother where art thou.
