    so what makes you guys choose Fry over Bender (Futurama talk here)? Bender is the scene stealer in the show without question.

    TV:
    Tony Soprano
    Fred Sanford
    George Castanza
    Jack Bauer
    Boss Hogg

    Movies:
    Tommy DeVito (Joe Pesci in Goodfellas)
    Quint (Robert Shaw in Jaws)
    Darth Vader (voiced by James Earl Jones, played by David Prowse
    Clark Griswold (of the NL Vacation movies)
    Private Pyle (Vincent D'Onofrio in Fill Metal Jacket)

    TV:
    Dr. Zoidberg - Futurama
    George Costanza - Seinfeld
    John Locke - Lost
    Archie Bunker - All In The Family
    Lucy Ricardo - I Love Lucy

    Movies:
    Michael Corleone - Godfather
    William Wallace - Braveheart
    Derek Vinyard - American History X
    John Doe - Se7en
    Nikonar 'Nick' Chevotarevich - The Deer Hunter

    I don't know why people would choose Fry over Bender but your assertion that Bender is the scense stealer is wrong. That obviously goes to Dr. Zoidberg, I hope the futurama movies over the summer kinda feature him a little more.

    bender is fabulous, but fry is a more developed character. although most of my favorite lines are not from either, but from either random people or scruffy or professor farnsworth.

    That's a great movie. So many great lines in that. "Fletch" is my favorite Chevy Chase movie by far.

    Dude is right. He is in Deveil and Daniel Webster, but the name is used in a bunch of old folk tales. He is also in the Devil and Tom Walker.
