There are so many amazing characters in movies that impact our lives. Who did you want to be like most from a movie you saw growing up? How did it change the way you did things once you saw this movie character the first time?

I loved Ferris Bueller's Day Off and his carefree attitude. His quote "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it" rings true today!

Luke Skywalker. But glad that didn't pan out. Cuz he's a big weenie now.

(note to young self: he was kind of a big weenie in the 70's and 80's too)

Han Solo, but also a Jedi.

This is me. Seems ole Henry Jones Jr is a popular choice here.

As a kid - any kid character from early Godzilla movies, or not from a movie that I had necessarily seen but from some of the kid-oriented WWII history books I had read, Colonel Jimmy Doolittle
As a preteen - Luke Skywalker / Han Solo
As a teen - Indiana Jones
As an adult - Indiana Jones

Same.

Although I thought being teen wolf would be pretty sweet.

Good one.

Except I didn't want to have to go thru the plane crash to get the bionic parts.

Not a fictional character, but a lot of us wanted to be Evel Knievel when we were kids. Or Bruce Lee.




Or Bruce Jenner.

Indiana Jones or Han Solo were always at the top of the list.

But if I am being honest, it's not even close.

James Bond.

There was nothing more appealing to me than the notion of being a cold warrior and absolutely slaying it with the hottest women of every nationality, ethnicity, and color, on the planet.

Roger Moore was my hero.

Either one of these, depending on what the day called for:
1.) Maverick from Top Gun (the original 80s version). So cool I could sing "Loving Feeling" to any hot girl and have her fall in love with me as I'm doing something as cool as flying fighter jets around (ie driving my Celica)

2.) Axel Foley from Beverly Hills Cop. Always the funniest/coolest guy in the room. Resentfully respected by authority figures who laugh at my quick-witted hijinks.
