Only one o in losing. Your question:

Who of these struggling characters below is losing the most?

The bit with "aiming normal condition" is a bit strange. You could just shorten it:

But they fight and they don't give up.

And also:

These characters are extreme losers in any way

Corrected some more typos  and contents! ;)

You should go over your text from the different options - there are quite a few spelling errors. Once you look through and make changes I'll edit it myself (if you want).

FYC:
Roy - Kingpin
Charlie and Donald - Adaptation
Mabel - A Woman Under the Influence
Harry and Marv - Home Alone
Craig - Being John Malkovich
Louis - Ghostbusters
Dawn - Welcome to the Dollhouse
Frank - Little Miss Sunshine
Theodore - Her
Tai - Clueless
Marion - Psycho
Harvey - American Splendor
Royal - The Royal Tenenbaums
Pyle - Full Metal Jacket
Telly - Kids
Dignan - Bottle Rocket
Jack - The Shining

How about Fredo or Randy "The ram" ??


I know that a lot of people haven't seen it because in many places it hasn't been released yet but what about Marcello from "Dogman"?

FREDO!!! Actually, pretty much every role Cazale played in his all-too-brief career.

Ok...here we go...

Suggest - Biggest Movie Losers -or- Extreme Movie Losers

These are movie characters who are perpetual losers, because their life, their circumstances or simply their environment is keeping them down. But they fight and some of them don't give up aiming for a normal condition. Which of these struggling, loser characters below is the most interesting to you?

(Most be from movies rated minimum 6.5 stars on IMDb. No animation allowed but characters can be either from real life or fictional)

1 - Foster completely lost his mind in the daily traffic jam. He was always a ticking time-bomb but was pushed over the edge when he was fired. He went to see his wife, disregarding the order of protection she had taken out to protect her and their daughter. In the course of his rampage he shocked some people and killed some people until he finally got killed by a good officer's bullet.

2 - Foiled by her mother, her husband, her husband's dumb friend's plans, the police, the court of law, the press, the audiences, she is still known as cheap white trash to the public.

You know, as I'm looking at these, I don't think you need to spell everything out. It's better if you just put a line or two and remove the spoiler mark-ups.

For example, for #1 you could say, "After being fired and stuck in traffic, a man loses his mind and decides to walk home. Pity the citizen who crosses his path."

* none of the descriptions should be in all-caps. And check with Dan, I'm not sure that the spoiler notation will still be there once the list goes live - some formatting isn't supported in the poll mode.

Breumaster,

Please change the bold underlined text:

I append the rule 6.5/10 to 5.5/10 if there is an extraordinary loser. So if anyone knows a low down loser  in a movie rated down to 5.5/10, let me know.  There are 4 more #s to fill. But remember, if we look down to 5.5/10, it has to be an extraordinary loser.

A few more typos:

Which of these struggling, losing characters below is the most interesting to you?

#4: Held 16 years as a captive ...  he therewith unintentionally caused...
#8: Turned to a satanic mass murderer ...
#13: Dragged into a battue by his environment.
#19: Not able to prove his innocence ... to live with a total psychopath. 
#29: ...but then died of a heart attack

Hi Breu! There are a few I'd want to get my vote so it'll be difficult to decide. I love this one!

Congratulations, Breumaster!

Thank you, dudes! :)
Nice to see all this effort of every one of us got online.
Now that the poll is live, I wonder myself whom I would pick.
It's a hard contest for many of those loser-characters
on this poll.

Breumaster,

It's generally not a good idea to update the list upon which a poll is based to include a link to the poll. Inevitably the poll will need to be updated.
