Another high school garage band going nowhere, Axl and the Axmen’s claim to fame is superimposing their hot teacher into a music video for their basic three chord (was it even three?) song. Personally, we thought Axl’s Boss Co. was better but until we have a Fictitious Company Hall of Fame….

Recognizing the popularity of Guitar Hero, playable character and resident metalhead, Axel Steel is up for your consideration. A stereotype of late 70’s Heavy Metal, Steel is the consummate shredder and hates disco. This might be the guy you want to party with, but perhaps only once a year.



The Bullet Points:

Video Game Appeared:
Guitar Hero

Actor:
N/A

Songs you might remember:
None

Why you should vote for him:
The character’s bio indicates how much likes beer. That’s a plus for us.

Why you should not vote for him:
Have we reached the stage where we want to induct video game characters?

From Tropic Thunder, a movie that satires countless aspects of Hollywood, Alpa Chino was a closeted rapper who was hoping that the film of the same name was going to be his break as an actor. Already a star in the hip-hop industry, Alpa Chino followed what many other successful rappers did; they try to make themselves a mogul. Alpa Chino was promoting his energy drink and candy bar (known as Bust A Nut) throughout the film and while we don’t know if he ever made it as an actor, he was at least presented as a star musician. We do wonder however if he ever came out of the closet or if he continued to be on the “down-low”.

Why you should not vote for him:
Is this even one of the top five characters of the film?

Shawn Marion’s nickname of “The Matrix” might just be one of the best (and appropriate) in not just basketball but all of sports.   Marion could do it all. He was a scorer, a rebounder and a solid defender and could fill whatever void you needed.
