I just want to say how glad you are doing this channel. it breaks me a lot of joy and I look forward to Sundays. when my days are dark I know I can look forward to this channel every Sunday. So thank you so much
top three 3) Gordie Lachance from "the Body" 2) Abra Stone from "Dr. Sleep" 1) the Losers club from "IT" as far as suggestions, I think best/worst supernationally powered kids and best dads
Here's my picks Charlie McGee firestarter Danny torrence the shining Abra doctor sleep Jake chambers the dark tower series Jaime later Jack the talisman Charlie fairytale
Good solid list. One kid that jumped out at me (and im about to really contradict myself here) the kid from Fairy Tale (i want to say Charlie, ill have to check). Such a great kid, really let down by this story, i really liked the dude and his love of his dog!
The list was ticking on and I was starting to worry that my favourites wouldn’t even be included! I was pleasantly surprised to find our top 2 are the same, though Jake and mark are swapped for my 3 and 4. Great list, really impressed with how well you managed to keep it spoiler free! Controversial opinion maybe, but I don’t find Danny Torrance an interesting character. He too often reads like a 40 year old professor in a child’s body for my tastes. Not saying I don’t like the character, he just wouldn’t make it into my list. Ellie Creed most certainly would, though!
Top ten Kids? It is hard not to say: Loser's Club plus the boys from The Body and here we are! But I take just 2 out of one book ... 1. Ben Hanscom 2. Chris Chambers 3. Beverly Marsh 4. Trisha McFarland 5. Charlie McGee 6. Jake Chambers (hm, SK likes that name) 7. Jack Sawyer (sry, but the Talisman has my heart) 8. Abra Stone 9. Teddy Duchamps (yea, an unexpected pick) 10. Mike Ross (had to get in Joyland, love that book) I think, I forgot a least ten ...
Fair questions! For me, I think I stopped thinking of these characters as kids once they got in their teens, so Carrie and the walkers were too old. As for the guys from The Body, yep, lots of folks have mentioned them. I like them a lot, but they just didn’t quite make the cut for me.
Love your channel Dave, dont think i have ever commented though! So hello! Lmao, also id have to say, Bill from IT is the most relatable for me. My little brother passed when i was 12, so i think its more the emptiness he feels after losing Georgie. 📖 📕 📘 📗 📚
@@DaveReadsKing the comment was long over due sir haha, and yea it was traumatic. It's been 20 years now and now I'm into the what it would have been like stage of it all. But I find my escapes on my trips through the pages!
digging this list only 1 confusion for me Carrie? or is it because shes technically a bad guy? also, i agree with other commenters, the stand by me boys i was super happy you skipped Abra
Gage Creed didn't make the cut? No fair! No fair! *Edit:* I've only just realised that I posted this comment on 14 May 2024 - which, chillingly enough, happens to be the 40-year anniversary of the very date on which young Gage, playing a perfectly innocent game of 'Run away from Mommy-Daddy', strayed out onto Route 15 and - no, no; we mustn't speak of _that._
Richie Tozier is my all time favourite loser. Always felt Richie was a little like me, more I am like him. Make some crazy jokes and not too good ones, can be annoying, make voices, like movies.
