Randall Boggs - Monsters, Inc. (watched Monsters, Inc. yesterday with my 5-year-old cousin and *loved* it. Randall, in particular.) Move over, Wilt! ;3

I would have a really, REALLY tough time if I ever had to choose between Randall and Wilt! At first, they seem so different...but pay close attention to Wilt in some of the latter episodes(especially "Bus The Two of Us"), as the stress of SOMETHING is starting to really get to him, and tell me that he and Randall aren't, like, sharing the same brain or something! Their reactions, especially to someone startling them, or someone(like Bloo or Mike Wazowski)pushing the right "buttons", as so similar. Thing is, Randall is often perceived as Evil Incarnate, while Wilt is Mr. Nice Guy. Given how quickly Wilt can go from that Mr. Nice Guy to borderline psycho, you have to wonder what Randall's behavior would be like in the absence of the extreme and prolonged stress he was under in the movie. While I can't quite picture him apologizing for every little thing or willingly taking the blame for things he didn't do(he got pretty upset when Mike accused him of cheating, which he was NOT doing), it's not difficult to fathom him being the sort who'd randomly clean someone else's apartment "just because" or nearly break his neck to go get Frankie some light bulbs from the store! Plus, like Wilt, he's got this past that no one knows about, but it's easy to extrapolate that it has not been a pleasant one, and if you look closely, you will see that Randall has more than his fair share of noticeable scars, as well.
