Hard to say when the person in question is someone you’ve never met except through a computer server.
I haven’t seen Cars 2 but Holly looks cool! ‘You kids get all the good hardware’
I’m Violet. I’m very shy and I create barriers (force fields) around me to stop people knowing the real me. I don’t have a lot of confidence however if it’s called for and there’s no backing out, I can do things I didn’t think I could, if I put my mind to it. There are times when I just wish to be able to turn invisible.
Emile from Ratatouille, flat out. We’re both good natured (though I a bit less so, heh heh), we’re quiet for the most part, and we both have younger siblings like Remy (strong-willed, brash and daring) and my Dad is a bit like Djanoo, only not such a strict stick in the mud. Emile’s stuck between the two of them, much like I’m stuck between my sister and my Dad, and when I was younger, my sister and I had the exact same relationship as Remy and Emile at the beginning of the movie. When I first saw it back in 2007, Emile’s line of " I don’t like secrets…It’s like you’re involving me in crime and I let you. Why do I let you?" really hit home. It was the first time I’d actually seen a character like that in fiction, and it really made me happy because, even if Emile wasn’t real, it made me realize that, in this regard, I wasn’t alone.
I am a little bit like Wall-E and Dory as well. Dory and I can both be random, crazy spazzes if we want to be, and I really identify with Wall-E’s loneliness at the beginning of the movie and his utter joy when he found somebody to love.
I’d probably say that, first and foremost, I’m like Bonnie! I know that sounds weird, but I’m imaginative, a little shy, a little silly, I love to draw, and I love my toys! And she must be a Pixar fan, considering her Wally B backpack
I think I’m also a cross between, well, a lot of characters…
- Trixie, Because I’m a gamer and I love computers and am a little random.
- Remy, Because I’m a dreamer and I want to follow in the footsteps of my heroes.
- Holley, Because I know a lot about a lot of things I’ve never done, and I think we have similar thought processes/reactions, oh, and our both being computer-savvy.
- and Mater, because I love to laugh and enjoy being with friends.
I’m sure they are others, and I’ll add on to this when something comes to mind.
^^I can picture you being like Bonnie, OwP! You sound like a lot of fun to be around and like you take care of things like your toys. My toys have always been important to me, that’s for sure. Mind if I do a crossover style like yours? Right now, I can think of a few characters I relate to well (not in order, they’re equal):
- WALL*E because he likes discovering new things and although he can be friends with anyone, he can get a lot done on his own. He may seem like a hopeless romantic as well until his perfect match shows up in his life (wonder when that will be!).
- I’m like Rex because out of all of my friends, I’m the cautious one who might seem like the party-pooper only when he thinks something will go wrong in a risky situation. I’m just trying to look out for them, and I only do it when I’m involved. However, I do know how to be part of a good party and have fun and dance like he eventually does!
- Mater because while a lot of people don’t see him as bright, he has a great heart and is always there for a friend in need. He is mature in his understanding of how to treat other people and innocent in his sense of wanting to be as playful and imaginative as a child. And as it’s discovered, he (Mater) truly is very smart and it comes into play out of his concern for others and because, well, he has a lot more sense and knowledge than others would think.
- Remy since I’m also a big dreamer who will do what it takes (rightfully) to reach my goals and be satisfied with who I am and what I love to do.
Oh and also a bit of… - Hamm, only because of his enjoyment of knowing a lot of facts except I don’t just go sharing them like nothing with people and I’m not really sarcastic unless the people I’m talking to already know I’m joking around.
^Awesome, LQ! You’ve got a great list here! Yeah, I also can see a bit of Rex in me for the same reasons. And thanks, I quite like being a “Bonnie”!
Well, I’m a lot like WALL-E…I’m a Thing-Finder (which means I collect interesting things I find), I like to sort stuff in a certain way, I like to do things according to a routine, and I’m often seen watching my favorite movies for the umpteenth time. (And they’re usually Pixar.)
But I’ve always thought of myself as more of a Buzz. I’m tech-savvy, good at solving problems, and I have a unique sense of humor.
