Empire Magazine has compiled their list of the Greatest Movie Characters ever. Buzz Lightyear, and WALL•E are two of only three animated characters in the list (the other being Jessica Rabbit) ranking in at #94 and #63, respectively!
Empire writes on Buzz:
"Buzz Lightyear deserves his slot because he’s a dreamer. And dreamers, sometimes, deserve to fly as high as they can."
…and on WALL•E:
"The adorable little bolt bucket never, ever, gives up hope, and winds up saving both the planet and the human race for his trouble. But it’s the revealing of his personality through his undying fascination with human junk that really wins you over. "
Buzz and WALL•E are among greats like Darth Vader, The Joker, Yoda, James Bond, Jack Sparrow, Indiana Jones, Forrest Gump, and they sure deserves it!

Wow…only Buzz??
They should make a 100 Animated Characters list instead.
It was a pretty bad list.
Tyler Durden as #1 is pretty weak…
Hey, Wall-E is on the list too!
Oh, of course, thanks for the head up!
Yeah, Wall-E is definitely on there. A couple other animated characters are on there too. Gollum is pretty high on the list.
Gollum doesn’t really count, he’s a mo-cap character. But yeah, the list includes Buzz, Jessica Rabbit, and WALL•E those are the only truly animated characters in there.
Thanks again!
Um… The website is wrong I think cause in the actual magazine Indiana Jones was number one. I think someone made a mistake!
