IGN's Top 100 Star Wars characters

Noticed this over at the EPOCH forums and figured it was worth sharing. Honestly, its really not that bad of a list. I was very happy to see Dash Rendar, Kyle Katarn, HK-47 and others made it as high as they did for being EU characters. Sure, some clone wars characters were a bit high, but I can't complain too much. And 20-1 has not been released yet but I'll post it when it is.





Cant find 40-21 on youtube... but here it is on IGN's site: http://www.ign.com/star-wars-characters/video.html

Also, the girl doing this somehow managed to be attractive and seem to know what she was talking about at the same time... though im sure it was a ruse

Interesting I'm glad to see the likes of Kyle Katarn and HK-47 as high as they are, though it is a little too predictable who will make up the top 20, ie Darth Vader, Palpatine, Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Lando, R2-D2 etc.
Still it will be interesting in what order they put them, not that it matters much.

pffff I doubt that host chick has ever even heard of most of the characters on this list

I would say that is probably the case as well... I can still dream though.

That chick is total nerd, so she probably has heard of all of them. Just letting you know.

Also, I'm disappointed Lando and his manly mustache was #11 instead of in the top ten. I meen come on, look at his mustache!

(Vader got #1)

Yep the top 20 was pretty predictable, but I am happy to see some EU characters make it as high as they did.

I was very happy with the the top 20 and really the overall list. Pleasantly surprised that Thrawn and Revan placed as high as they did and even happier that Han only got defeated by Vader, which is a respectable defeat. The best of it all though, is that Jar Jar was not included at all.

I have much more respect for IGN now that I feel that they actually know what they are talking about. I might even have to compile my own top 100 list here soon...

Also for anyone who is looking for it, 20-1 can be found at the same link i posted for the 40-21 video.

Comments: Mace Windu should have been higher up by at least 2 spots (but not in top 20)

I'm glad Darth Maul outranked Qui Gon

I don't think anybody would care about Leia if she wasn't in the bikini

Spoiler:

What I think the top 10 will be:

10) Yoda

9) Obi Wan Kanobi

8: Bobba Fett

7) Chewbacca

6) C3PO

5) R2-D2

4) Leia

3) Han Solo

2) Luke Skywalker

1) Darth Vader

My top 10:

10) Admiral Akbar (All because he said: IT'S A TRAP!!!)

9) Lando

8: Leia

7) Obi Wan Kenobi

6) Han Solo

5) Luke Skywalker

4) C3PO

3) R2-D2

2) Bobba Fett (he's a badass)

1) Darth Vader

Who I think deserved top 10 after watching:

10) Chewbacca

9) Obi Wan Kenobi

8: Yoda

7) Leia

6) Han Solo

5) Luke Skywalker

4) Bobba Fett (still a badass)

3) C3P0

2) R2-D2 (R2 along with C3PO was in just about everything, all 6 movies, the clone wars cartoons/cartoon movie. Comic books, the books taking place after the movies, shall I go on?)

1) Darth Vader (One of the best villains ever)

Well IGN has also now released a celebrity list where they asked a bunch of famous people who their favorite is. Of course Han, Boba Fett and Vader dominated, however some other answers made their way in.

Im pretty sure I heard Darth Nihlus mentioned from Jerry O'Connell and I how have a ton more respect for Paul Rudd for picking IG-88.
