STEELE IS WAY TOO COOL!!!! I LOVE HIM!!! Hey, just read my username

I love him as a villain. He's such an expressive character with tons of personality. I know he's a really selfish bully and so full of himself, but that's kind of why I think he's such a great villain!

And he's a very important character to the story, too (the fictional story obviously!). Every epic movie needs a bad guy; someone that'll get the hero mad and make them want to prove themselves even more. And Steele was just the guy for the job!

While I tend to take the hero's side when watching films, I always appreciate a good villain. I know that Balto had another reason to be a hero, but the fact that Steele was constantly putting him down yet Balto succeeded anyway just made Balto seem even more heroic. If Steele's character had been boring then the movie wouldn't have been nearly as great.

I love him mostly because he's a great bad guy. Bad guys can be just as cool as the good guys.

I wish that the writers had gone with their original idea for Balto 3 and had Steele return instead of having Stella.

I don't like how he's prejudiced and, quoth Jenna, "a glory hound", but I think he's misunderstood. I mean, he has to have SOME sort of emotional distress to act that way. He just needs some love. :3
