Game Of Thrones: The Most Likable Characters, According to Reddit (Screen Rant)

Though some characters, like Jon Snow, Daenerys Targaryen, and Tyrion Lannister, have often been at the top of the list of favored characters, there are several ...

Arya has one of the best character arcs in Game of Thrones, bringing fans on a journey of self-discovery, revenge, and murder. Though he was executed for betraying Daenerys, he was acting for the concern of the people and not what he would get out of it. Audiences love Tyrion because he is an imperfect character, but he's proven to be the most resourceful, strategic, and intelligent. The Hound, AKA Ser Sandor Clegane, is one of the more complex characters in the series. While other members of the Stark family wanted to avenge their family, Arya's character was based on her quest for revenge and justice. Jon Snow is one of the most beloved characters throughout this whole series. Reddit user Ralphy97 said, "He was the only character who TRULY only served for the good of the realm. He is one of the fans' favorite characters because he was more concerned about the people than those who had power. While she was a powerful and determined woman, as she came closer to getting her throne, she became crueler and less concerned with the people. Though he is often considered a villain, Tywin is also one deserving of the throne due to his wits. Many fans consider Davos Seaworth to be one of the best side characters in Game of Thrones. Though he made a mistake following Stannis Baratheon as long as he did, he owned up to his mistakes. An evil she may be, but many fans also recognize she was a formidable force and was, in some ways, an inspiration for taking up against the patriarchy.

10 Best Willem Dafoe Performances, According To Reddit (Screen Rant)

Willem Dafoe is one of Hollywood's most famous, eccentric, and versatile actors, but which of his performances are most loved by Redditors?

Many Redditors still harbor a great amount of affection towards The Boondock Saints, and in particular, Dafoe's performance in the movie. Wes Anderson is a discerning director when it comes to casting his films, and he uses many of the same actors time after time. Redditors are quick to mention Platoon as one of Dafoe's most unforgettable performances, with Redditor RampDog1 saying "A lot of great roles, I think Sergeant Elias in Platoon was his best." Redditors who have dared to watch the movie are still reeling from its chilling artistry and in particular, Dafoe's performance, which encapsulated all the tortured angst that is redolent of the film's iconoclastic director. Lars Von Trier's controversial 2009 psychological horror Antichrist was vintage Willem Dafoe-fare. In the movie, Dafoe is cast as a nameless psychiatrist who is tasked with saving his marriage after the tragic death of his son. Dafoe's portrayal of Max Schreck, who played Orlock in Murnau's original movie, was a terrifyingly genius casting by director E. Elias Merhige, and Redditors have cited the movie as one of Dafoe's most underappreciated roles. Willem Dafoe is undoubtedly one of the most adored and versatile actors currently working in Hollywood today, to which his performance in Robert Eggers' The Northman, released in April 2022, is a testament. Troy Duffy's 1999 vigilante crime thriller The Boondock Saints presented Willem Dafoe with another opportunity to flex his eccentric acting muscles to the limit. Willem Dafoe is admired universally for his versatility and ability in taking on a range of roles, from hero to villain, as well as characters with morally ambiguous arcs. Robert Eggers has long been mooted to adapt F.W. Murnau's famous vampire masterpiece Nosferatu, and fans have excitedly pined for Dafoe to attach himself to the project in some capacity. Reddit users were unsurprisingly enamored with Dafoe's performance as Green Goblin and Redditor King_Tamino has waxed effusively about the portrayal, saying "straight-up nightmare stuff. At its center was a solemn and impassioned performance from Willem Dafoe.

10 Overrated Naruto Characters, According To Reddit (Screen Rant)

A member of the Uchiha clan and Itachi's best friend, Shisui is a highly-skilled ninja who was renowned for his Body Flicker Technique, which allows him to ...

When confronted by Sasuke, Itachi explained that all he did was for the greater good of the village and humanity, and that he spared Sasuke because he loved him too much. Being a part of the Nara clan, Shikamaru can use his own shadow to control enemies and keep them bound. The villain was also able to maintain his influence in the shinobi world for quite some time by giving outcasts like Sasuke a purpose, although he treats them as mere pawns in his plans. However, he's not the same after using all eighth gates and Redditor Sea-Jeweler6361 notes that he would "actually struggle against a lot of opponents and die", even at his peak. He's one of the most radiant and positive characters in the show. From the academy teacher Might Guy to the devious spy Kabuto Yakushi, Reddit users have spoken out and chosen the most overrated characters in the world of Naruto.

If you're not a fan of massive IPs or are looking to broaden your horizons, Reddit is the go-to place to find criminally underrated movies.

Time is the enemy for both soldiers as they have to deliver the message in time as the lives of their comrades are in their hands. The Secret Life of Walter Mitty is available on Hulu. Reddit user greenhedgehog9 suggests viewers see the 2013 film The Secret Life of Walter Mitty for a feel-good story and to see its emphasis on scenery. The Sapphires is a comedy and a biography. The Sapphires is available on Hulu and HBO Max. Living in Oblivion is available on the Roku Channel. The 1998 psychological thriller The Interview is the film Reddit user u/Apellosine recommends that viewers should watch for the interactions between the two lead characters. The story is set in 1968 Australia, where Cynthia (Miranda Tapsell), Kay (Shari Sebbens), Gail (Deborah Mailman), and Julie (Jessica Mauboy) met Dave Lovelace (Chris O'Dowd). Dave searched for his next stars and saw potential in the Indigenous women. However, earning money legally is the least of his worries when he finds out that his daughter, Lisa (Marisa Tomei), is pregnant. Angelo portrays the overprotective father similar to Steve Martin's character, George Banks, in Father of the Bride (1991). Except Stallone's character, Angelo, insists on finding a husband for his pregnant daughter, but none of the contenders seem to pass the test. Could it be that they are paranoid, or is it possible that the neighbors are committing evil deeds? Searching for the ideal movie to watch takes a significant amount of time.

10 Most Underrated Sitcoms, According To Reddit (Screen Rant)

Due to its raunchy humor and a crossover with another sitcom, Community, Cougar Town came to be more known as a joke than a great show in its own right.

Though some pointed to its 9 season run, award nominations, and widespread critical praise as evidence that the show wasn't that underrated, most agreed that The Middle is a TV show that isn't watched enough according to Reddit users. With a squeaky-clean corporate air and central characters that pay hilariously little regard to ethics at times, the show is a lot of Redditor's go-to suggestion for an obscure but great comedy. With four seasons that they called "hilarious" and "heartwarming", now wouldn't be a bad time to see how the show manages to retain its fans even years after its cancelation. Even as the show matured, so did the romance and it became exponentially more watchable which is a part of why many supported it as a show that deserves a second look. Due to its raunchy humor and a crossover with another sitcom, Community, Cougar Town came to be more known as a joke than a great show in its own right. This caused discussion among Reddit users about which sitcoms are the most underrated of recent years, and which deserved to be a lot more known than they are.

10 Wild Westworld Theories, According To Reddit (Screen Rant)

Season 4 of Westworld is finally here, so it's time to dust off Bernard and get back to the best thing about the sci-fi show - the wild theories!

Perhaps in a way, Christina is really more like an amalgamation of Dolores "The Original" Abernathy and Dr. Ford. So far, given the fact that everything from Christina to the world she lives in feels like a construct, there could be something to the Rehoboam simulation theory. Given the great plot twist Westworld had in its pilot, it's not surprising that the series would continue to subvert expectations with something like Itschunn believes happened after season 3; Solomon escaped, destroyed the world, and human consciousness had to be placed into host bodies. Anything is possible in Westworld, which is why its premise is so intriguing, and having Ford be a host leaves the possibility open for Sir Antony Hopkins to return to the role if he chooses. One such scene in season 2 involving Dolores and Bernard implies that it might have been alluding to him diving back into The Sublime in season 3. Reddit fans have been buzzing like flies about the fate of the real William, what Halores has in store for The Sublime, and whether or not Christina is really Dolores in some kind of simulation.
