    Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader from Star Wars has always been my all-time personal favorite Star Wars/Sci-Fi Character.
    His rise as a Jedi, his fall to the dark side as a Sith, and his redemption and return to the light side in Return Of The Jedi is the main reason why he's so iconic, unique, timeless, memorable, recognizable, special, mythical and legendary.
    Truly a Iconic Sci-Fi Legend.

    Charlie Chaplin used to take his Little Tramp character on the Vaudeville theater circuit to all sorts of cities big and small. My Italian grandfather, who was a shoemaker and repairman in Franklin, PA, was asked by Chaplin to create a new pair of his Little Tramp shoes as the pair he was using were too worn out. This took place in the late 1920s before the birth of my mother in 1932.

    No. 11, Spider-Man has always been my childhood Marvel superhero, and while I love all three actors who played Peter Parker I would have to go with Tom Holland out of all of them. Tobey is a good nerdy Peter Parker but wasn't as quippy as Spidey in the comics. Andrew Garfield however does, but was too cool to be Peter Parker. Tom Holland however nails both sides of the character down perfectly. And it's unknown if their keeping him in the role for the MCU soft-reboot if "Avengers: Secret Wars" really is semi-reseting the franchise but I'm really excited for what the future has in store for the character til then 🕷️🕸️❤️💙
