Who is your favorite star wars character and why?


It could be a character featured in film,graphic novels or both.

My favorite character is Qui Gon Jinn. Qui Gon Jinn is imo the wisest of the prequel era jedi(rivaled only by master yoda in terms of wisdom.) i say this because Jinn seems to be the only jedi who is mindful to the living force. The downfall of the jedi was putting the will of the republic before the will of the force. Jinn was guided by the living force and not by the will of the senate. His philosophy and study of the force uncovered the gift which would ultimately save the jedi and enable their return during the o.t trilogy. He becomes a vessel of the force and returns from the netherworld. He teaches master yoda how to return from the dead and yoda teaches the skill to obi wan. If this did not occur, luke skywalker would never have went to dagohba to learn from yoda(who adopts qui gons philosophy regarding the force.) This is why Luke was able to resist the darkside and how he was able to spark vaders redemption.
Qui Gons influence cannot be understated and his affect on the jedi is why he is my favorite character.

Lol, yeah sure. Harrison Ford was always the epitome of cool when one was a kid, anyway. Han Solo was the hero we all wanted to be but knew we couldn't pull it off. He was THE childhood idol, really.

Arguably the greatest protaganist in film history.

I would say so. Really, in most people's mind, the only competition is Indiana Jones, and since that's still Harrison Ford it hardly matters.

R2-D2. he's the always dependable robot friend I always wanted as a child. He's the swiss army knife with attitude.
