Some Fictional Characters in Film and on TV That I'd Hang Out With... If They Weren't Fictional

  • Dec 4, 2009
Well, who hasn't had the fantasy of meeting a fictional figure or icon of pop culture? However, since reality dictates our lives, most of these meetings will never occur (in all likelihood). Plus, let's face it... even if these fictional figures were real, why the hell would they hang out with me in my small town in Maine? This list is my way of acknowledging those people, who don't actually exist, that I'd love to meet and or hang out with.
1
Count Orlok
Count Orlok
Certainly not someone I'd invite over to dinner, but something tells me he's got a lively side (or as lively as vampires can get). Plus, I'd love to know how he makes his fingernails grow on command and does that spooky thing with his shadow. ):-=
2
Count Dracula
Count Dracula
First, I'd congratulate him on his stunning career and longevity. Then, I'd ask him, "Why don't you drink... wine?"
See the full review, "Count Dracula: A Vampire for the Ages - The Evolution of the World's Most Famous Vampire".
3
Batman (Bruce Wayne)
Batman (Bruce Wayne)
Okay, so I'd only get to meet him if I was a criminal and he was busting my ass, but at least I could say that I got served by THE Batman. Plus, maybe I'd get to ride shotgun in the Batmobile before I land in jail. ; )
4
Kermit the Frog
Kermit the Frog
Well, since I've been little, I've always been a huge fan of "The Muppets" and "Sesame Street". I'd love to sit down and interview Kermit (much like Barbara Walters would). I'd ask him if it's still "not Easy Being Green" even during the current "Go Green" trend.
5
Hercules
Hercules
We'd sit down and talk about the glory days (Seasons 1-3) and why the show went downhill after that. Then we'd chat about all the beautiful women he's encountered over the years of adventuring. And maybe, if I was brave enough, I'd ask him how someone so docile could be the strongest man in the world.
6
Xena
Xena
Wow, this would be fun. First of all, I'd ask her if her leather and bronze outfit is uncomfortable, then I'd ask her what it was like being a feminist warrior in a man's world. Then she'd kick my ass when I asked her what the real relationship was between her and Gabrielle.
7
Gabrielle
Gabrielle
So, we'd sit down by a scenic lake and discuss her being the coolest sidekick ever, then she'd smack me with her scrolls. Then we'd discuss what it was like being an Amazon princess and did her ancient push-up bra hurt, and then she'd hit me with her staff. Then I'd ask her what happened to her career after Xena, and then she'd kill me with her sai.
8
Wallace & Gromit
Wallace & Gromit
So, I'm imagining a visitation to West Wallaby Street, where Wallace & Gromit live. I can picture a feast of cheese and crackers with tea, after which I check out all of Wallace's zany inventions and Gromit mutely points out how they were all tested on him.
9
Angus MacGyver
Angus MacGyver
Okay, I'd make him a cup of tea and ask him to show me how he does all of those inventions and stuff. Seriously, is there like a secret college course on that?
10
Dr. Cristina Yang
Dr. Cristina Yang
She'd dazzle me with her medical knowledge, her witty sarcasm, and her good looks. Then I'd die and they'd play some catchy alternative pop tune while other doctors fell in and out of love... just like every episode.
11
Buffy Summers
Buffy Summers
I'd get her to tell me what it was like juggling peer conflicts, academic worries, and slaying vampires and other demons. Then she'd make a few jokes about ordering "stake" for dinner before telling me I need to get a life when I don't laugh.
12
Willow Rosenberg
Willow
First, I'd ask her what it's like being TV's most powerful witch. Then I'd be tempted to ask what sex with a werewolf is like. Then I'd get flayed alive for asking. Then she'd bring me back from the dead to apologize.
13
The Count
The Count
We'd have a blast counting how many vampire counts there are.
14
Blade (Eric Brooks)
Blade
We'd have a blast slaying all the vampire counts there are.
15
Henry "Indiana" Jones, Jr.
Henry
First, we'd go on a treasure hunt. Then I'd give him a hard time about how awful Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull  was. After that, some evil Nazi henchmen, Thuggee cult members or Soviet spies would kill me.

What did you think of this list?

I can't believe I'm just seeing this list -- it's wonderful and I love your humor. Thanks!!
January 03, 2011
Thanks. LOL! I wasn't sure how my warped sense of humor would come off here.
January 03, 2011
I like warped LOL
January 03, 2011
Really? I wouldn't have known that if you hadn't told me. LOL! ; )
January 03, 2011
I try hard to conceal that part of me LOL A warped sense of humor is the best - another reason Woo and I get along so well LOL
 
December 14, 2009
I would make a similar list but call it comic book heroes and heroines I'd like to meet. I've already met most of them, however.
 
December 12, 2009
I love this list. Great idea and very funny.
December 12, 2009
Really, I was funny? How did that happen?
December 12, 2009
I haven't the slightest.
December 12, 2009
Nor do I. I assure you that it probably won't happen again.
December 12, 2009
SEE THAT IT DOESN'T. We can't have unexpected humor breaking out around here. It wouldn't be right.
December 12, 2009
Nope, that would be a violation against all sense of propriety.
 
December 04, 2009
I would date 6,7,10 and 11. I don't wanna just hang out with them. I would fight # 4 and then chill with # 1 and 2. Nice list.
December 05, 2009
What? You would fight Kermit the Frog?
December 05, 2009
Yeah, what the heck do you have against my little green Muppet pal?
December 05, 2009
I want to take Miss Piggy as my GF.... ;-P
December 05, 2009
Officially freaking out now! You do know she's nothing more than a puppet, right?
December 05, 2009
of course...puppetiality LMAO!
December 05, 2009
You're weird. :P
December 05, 2009
yup yup!
December 05, 2009
No interest in #12?
December 05, 2009
Willow? Sure but those black eyeballs scare me...and I try not to mess with a witch LOL
December 05, 2009
Her eyes only go black when she's jonesing for dark magicks.
December 05, 2009
he-heh.
December 07, 2009
Personally, I'd love to see your own version of this list... and Trashie's too. I bet his would be all super heroes, monsters, and sexy ladies. LOL!
December 14, 2009
Japanese "pink" characters included? LOL
December 14, 2009
Um... probably not. I was thinking more along the lines of fictional figures that people would be familiar with.
December 14, 2009
mwa-ha-ha-ha-hah! (evil laugh)
 
December 04, 2009
Great list! That's why I go to comics conventions to actually meet these people -- I've checked out how many Wonder Women and Princess Leia's now?? I did a few more reviews in your absence, such as the incredibly interesting Shadow of the Vampire. :)
 
December 04, 2009
I'd hang out with most of these folks, too! Though I'm kind of scared of the first two... :P
December 05, 2009
I'd tell you not to worry 'cause they don't bite, but I'd be lying because they do. However, at least with #2 he'd be polite about it. ; )
Who would be on your list, anyhow?
