Bert from Mary Poppins
Bert, who’s played by Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins, is a jack-of-all-trades. He’s a chimney sweep, a one-man band, and a screeve. Not only can he hold down multiple jobs but he can also dance with the best of them including penguins and fellow chimney sweepers on the rooftops of London.
Marcel Marceau
Marcel Marceau is one of the best known mimes in the world, who became famous through his persona Bip the Clown. Though he kept things simple with his black and white attire and color coordinated makeup, he liked to accessorize with a top hat embellished with a red flower.
Chucky
In Child’s Play, a serial killer dubbed the Lakeshore Strangler is cornered, shot, and left bleeding to death. Fortunately he knows some voodoo, and transfers his soul into a Good Guy doll. In his pint-sized overalls, he carries on with his killing spree. It’s more terrifying than it sounds, honest.
Baby Brent
Brent McHale is the town celebrity of Swallow Falls in Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. He was the spokesperson for the town’s sardine cannery as a baby and still does guest appearances as Baby Brent – even though it seems wrong for a grown man to be parading around in diapers. He helps Flint and Sam save the town after he becomes Chicken Brent – let’s just say you have to watch the movie to know what that means.
Earl Devereaux
Earl Devereaux is the no-nonsense police officer of Swallow Falls. He’s extremely athletic and moves by backflipping and tumbling around. When his chest hairs start tingling, he senses something wrong is about to happen in Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.
Flint Lockwood
Flint Lockwood is an inventor who just wants to prove himself to everyone in Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. Unfortunately no one really understands his inventions or find them useful – that is until he develops the FLDSMDFR. But with his track record of failed inventions, it’s not long before it starts raining oversized mutated foods.
Sam Sparks
In Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, Sam Sparks gets the opportunity of a lifetime when she gets to report about the unusual and tasty weather in Swallow Falls. Sam hides how smart she really is but after meeting Flint she realizes that it’s okay to be yourself, even if it’s a bit nerdy.
Malcolm Reynolds
Mal Reynolds is the captain of the Serenity crew in the Firefly series. Despite his tough guy exterior, he really has a heart of gold. He helps River and Simon Tam hide from the Alliance, even if it means putting himself and his crew in danger.
