User blog:The Anonymous User/Total Drama: Pacific Island Characters

Since TDIwriter seemed to ask for this, and I have some time left this evening, I will post a rankings blog for his new cast! Here is an Anonymous opinion on the cast of Total Drama: Pacific Island!

1. Wheeler: I really liked him in this premiere, especially because the epic battle between him and Mother Nature was the scene that made me actually have to pause reading the story out of excessive laughter. I also really like his character, as a fellow musician who isn't the most secure in his personal appearance. I hope he does well in competition, and finds security in himself.

2. Diamond: Yeah, she was kind of hilarious, and having been referred to as a hipster by one of the guys in my Philosophy of Religion class on Friday, I am particularly drawn to her ridiculous behavior. I can imagine her saying "Psssh....rankings blogs are SO mainstream. -5 points for you, Anonymous whateveryouare"

3. Robin: I loosely indentify with Robin's idea of goth subculture, but I don't quite look it the way she does. I am a huge symphonic metal fan, though, so that helps, along with the intellectual and withdrawn stuff. I get that she mistreated and prejudged Kirk, but I don't blame her, considering many people of Kirk's ilk tend to mistreat people like me or Robin, so she is merely reacting out of impulse, and stuff. It's ironic (see what I did there, hipsters?) how she is mistreating someone because she thinks he will mistreat her.

4. Brittney: I'm also a bit of a geek in that way, but have never cosplayed or anything like that. I found her fun to read about.

5. Lori: She was funny, and another contestant to relate to, in a way. I also come off as awkward and creepy when I don't mean to be, though not as blatant as Lori. I did laugh at her "signature fetal position" gag, though.

6. Broderick: "The Iceman" and his need to out-tool everyone had me laughing frequently. I love the shirt-offs between him and Paxton. I guess he's just so over the top that I don't care how much of a pain he'd be if I actually met someone like him in person.

7. Paxton: Right now, I associate him with the aforementioned Iceman, so they are next to each other in the ranks.

8. Martina: I love the heartbroken thing, again, because I can relate in a way, though not with the whole "tragic accident" thing. I hope things work out for her, too, because I'd hate to see her so depressed.

9. Cooper: I actually really like him. He rides that line between incredibly tough to the point of causing harm, and loyal to his friends, to the point of defending them if they're down.

10. Katherine: She's just hilarious! I love how she's so open that she's just able to ask the girls if they're straight, just to know whether it's ok to make advances on them!

11. Judd: While his accent reminds me of a jolly Londoner, rather than a punk, I like the fact that not all of the contestants are American or Canadian. I don't like that he is violent for its own sake, but there could be worse things.

12. Nora: Others have said that she is a love-hate character, but I feel sort of torn with her. I think she is kind of annoying, but in a funny way, so it evens out to a middle spot. Depending on how much she bugs me compared to makes me laugh in the future, she will move up or down fairly quickly.

13. Hudson: Again, I like him, but he may get on my nerves a bit if he shifts too far in one direction with his character. I like him so far, though.

14. Marvin: I guess he is in the same boat as the above two, but more on the annoying side than the funny side, hence his lower position. I think he could be used well, and could climb the list rapidly, or he could be a complete delusional jerk and go down.

15. Barbara: I guess fifteenth place is the place where contestants who don't do much end up initially.

16. Kirk: I don't dislike him outright, but I don't like him right now, either. I can relate to parts of him, but I think he could come off as condescending, with his "coolness defending the uncool and mistreated" thing that he does. I understand Robin's perspective.

17. Christy: Again, I don't dislike her, but I don't love her right now either. I guess I don't have a read on her, yet.

18. Meredith: I am not sure whether or not I'll continue to dislike her down the line, but right now she's coming off as brash and a bit rude, which I guess is part of her character, but she could improve easily, as well.

19. Antonio: I don't hate him, but I don't like him right now. I am not a fan of immature people in my personal life, and he annoys me much in that same way.

20. Sawyer: I dislike him for many of the reasons I disliked Wayne back in Total Drama Wilderness, mostly for his making charity out to be something condescending, and like he is better than the other contestants for not using the money himself.

That's my list for now. Feel free to let me know what you think!
