Layla from Buffalo ’66
It takes a heck of a person to pull off dance clothes when meeting their fake husband’s parents for the first time. But Christina Ricci as Layla in Buffalo ’66 makes it seem effortless, even with several pounds of blue eye shadow on. It’s no surprise that Billy Brown is so excited to tell everyone that, “There’s a girl who loves me, and she’s very pretty.” Agreed, Billy.
Alan Garner
In the Hangover, the boys are headed to Vegas for the weekend — and the bride’s socially awkward brother Alan Garner (Zach Galifianakis) is tagging along. The wolf pack, as Alan dubs them, have one hell of night and sober up to a baby, a tiger, and a Mike Tyson.
Agnes in Despicable Me
Agnes is the youngest of the three girls adopted by Gru in Despicable Me. It is her unconditional love for Gru that begins to soften his tough personality. She loves cookies, ballet, unicorns and fluffy things. She especially loves fluffy unicorns – so much so that she might die!
Margo in Despicable Me
The Blues Brothers
Ex-con Jake “Joliet” Blues (John Belushi) and his brother Elwood (Dan Aykroyd) are the Blues Brothers, a band on a mission from God to save a Catholic orphanage. In their quest, they must face the police, neo-Nazis, and worst of all, a country and western band.
Deb
In a cast of awkward characters, Deb takes the cake. Dressed most often in pastel, this monotone sweetheart’s fashion sense is stuck in the ’80s with sideways ponytails and bangle bracelets. Perhaps after college she’ll earn a career that’s not selling handicrafts door-to-door, and update her wardrobe.
Uncle Rico
Former athlete Uncle Rico didn’t reach his goal of becoming an NFL superstar, but that doesn’t mean he has to stop throwing footballs, especially if it’s at his nephew Napoleon Dynamite. Though he’s moved on to a variety of get-rich-quick schemes, his tight bell bottoms and class ring suggest he’s still holding on to some aspect of his younger years.
Pedro Sanchez
After Pedro’s sweet mustache and bike impress Napoleon Dynamite, they become best of friends. Although Pedro is the quiet type, he boldly bakes a cake for the popular girl and runs for class president.
Wayne Campbell
Wayne Campbell, played by Mike Myers, co-hosts public access cable show Wayne’s World out of his parent’s basement in Aurora, Illinois. He likes to play air guitar, accompanied by best friend Garth Algar’s air drums. Schwing!
