Who Is Your Favorite Movie Dad?, Happy Father's Day Options

[SubRosa]

IMDB has a vid on who your favorite movie dad is. So why not have our own poll to celebrate Father's Day?

I cast my vote for Darth Vader of course. I mean, what Dad could be cooler? Think of all his words of wisdom:

You have controlled your fear. Now, release your anger.

Only your hatred can destroy me.

What more can a young person ask in the way of guidance?

I voted for Mr Stark. Almost didn't vote as I haven't seen a good many of the options. Thought about submitting a write-in (in addition to my official vote), but then realized I remember very few of the countless movie/TV dads I surely have seen. (I suppose I should add my usual caveat that my choice of Ned is based on the book rather than the TV show, though Ned's line ends early enough in the series to remain quite faithful to Martin.)

Not someone I'd necessarily officially submit, but I have much respect for the father in A Christmas Story. That guy knew how to soldier through adversity and make the best of sometimes awkward situations.
