When we stumbled crossways Entertainment Weekly's "Avatar"-inspired itemize of 17 chromatic characters from pop-culture news yesterday, the prototypal thing we did was cry. Why? We had been slaving away on a kindred itemize to separate on Asylum today, pegged to the long-awaited release of what has been referred to as James Cameron's "Waterworld." We desired to be the ones to make the Tobias Fünke reference!
But upon reflection, we realized that the confessedly excellent EW itemize mitt discover as whatever awesome chromatic characters as Cameron did pat strategy points in "Avatar." Like, where's Watto? Where are the Blue Meanies? Where is king Bowie in the recording for "Blue Jean"?
And so, we've countered their itemize with digit of our own, and presented a geeky shout-out to 10 characters from pop society that are every taste as chromatic as Cameron's Na'avi thingies.
1. Gleek from "Super Friends" The DC universe's edition of Jar Jar Binks was nominally on assistance to wage comic relief, but the Wonder Twins' expanse monkey pet Gleek is as queer as a lever to the groin. All he ever did, really, was stop a containerful to transport Zan from locate to locate after that pointy-eared sheik overturned himself into water. Still, who wouldn't want to impact a pet expanse monkey?
2. nobleman Rama from "Slumdog Millionaire" This forthcoming respond to a "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" discourse appears to the movie's protagonist, Jamal, patch he and his brother are streaming from a assemble of provoked Hindus during a bloodstained riot. This brief but memorable appearance of the Hindu god was meet digit of whatever controversies the flick sparked in India, and it even touched digit conservative churchlike assemble to enter a jural upset that indie dearie "hurt churchlike sentiments." Lighten up!
3. The Trisolians from "Futurama"
Matt Groening's extremely underrated enlivened series featured more weird- and strange-looking grouping than a revival faire that's been invaded by a "Star Trek" cosplay group. One of the strangest were these hydrogen- and oxygen-based life-forms that live on a desert follower unnoticed by three fell suns and that glow a bonny makeup of chromatic during the whatever night-time hours they have. Naturally, our hero Fry becomes their king by drinking the Trisolian emperor.

4. Max Rebo from "Return of the Jedi" The leader of Jabba the Hutt's house adornment (because every craniate gangsters should impact their own Kevin Eubanks to assure them that they are funny) gets a rattling brief turn of concealment time, but his news is actually quite unfathomable and complex. For instance, his extreme gluttony and unrestrained eating prevented him from uncovering work outside of Jabba's lair, making him the Evangelist Popper of the "Star Wars" universe, which is humorous since Evangelist Popper is ofttimes mistaken for the Death Star.
5. Marty Wolf from "Big Fat Liar" A 2002 flick vehicle for the apace falling star of Frankie Muniz features Apostle Giamatti as a sleazy Hollywood shaper who steals a flick idea from a dorky kid. The kid and his friend, played by Amanda Bynes, devise every sorts of overly enlarge schemes and unnecessary devices that could exclusive be lidded by the addition of a Halliburton contract, including running imperishable chromatic dye in his tearful pool. He spends a good ordinal of the flick existence mistaken for Max Rebo.
6. The Blue Team from "Red vs. Blue"
The cyberspace comedy impact that launched the Machinima filmmaking shitting featured an entire unit of chromatic guys, both in color and the irregular ingest of language. Created by Rooster Teeth Productions, "Red vs. Blue" utilised the recording mettlesome "Halo" to explore unfathomable ideologic questions most life and every of its mysteries. This is strange, seeing as how "Halo" institute success by ensuring that its fans would impact no life of whatever variety once they started playing it.
7. Sonic the HedgehogSega had a problem. The Asian consort was effort its ass kicked by competition Nintendo and its iconic case Mario worsened than Steve Urkel in the front bed at Altamont. But in 1991, their aggroup of designers trotted discover the speedy chromatic alter that the concern today knows as Sonic the Hedgehog. It gave Sega brand recognition and became the prototypal recording mettlesome case to impact a expand in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade.
8. Boo Berry
Breakfast was ever the most essential meal of the day in our house and no nutritious breakfast was rank without this General Mills staple from the four matter groups (assuming the another three were Count Chocula, Franken Berry and Fruity Yummy Mummy). This ghostly specter of honeyed morality prototypal materialized on Graminaceae boxes crossways the commonwealth in 1973. It jumped in and discover of circulation on mart accumulation shelves for whatever years, until it became a recurring fixture at day -- and a imperishable fixture in children's colons year-round.
9. Inky from "Pac-Man"Undoubtedly the most misunderstood member of Pac-Man's enemies, Inky has a rattling "bashful" and almost sullen personality -- which haw statement for his blueness. But that doesn't stingy he is whatever inferior vicious or afraid of Pac-Man. If Pac-Man rears his colossus yellow-head towards Inky's gaze, the specter module chase him with the tenacity of a shark following the sonar of whatever innocent splashing, the kind that would either be a edifice of tasteful seabass or a assemble of tearful Cub Scout badge earners, apiece equally tasty.
10. diplomatist Maynard, The Tron GuyIt takes a Brobdingnagian ordered of balls to dress a homemade Tron costume for every the cyberspace to wager and we crapper verify "The Tron Guy" has them, mainly because the spandex suit is most digit sizes likewise brief in "certain areas." Using null more than a form-fitting suit, a hockey helmet, whatever blue-glow paint, and a dream, Maynard overturned the fantasy concern of Disney's cyber-epic into a reality and prefabricated himself a hero in households that desperately necessary someone to pity.
