This question should be renamed who deserves to live out the rest of their life miserablly becasue that is the equivalent of this question now.

I think you're taking it a bit far. The question is about who should go out with Steele, not who should marry him. Dating the wrong person, depending on your own actions on said date, may or may not ruin your life. I should know.

But you do agree that being married to Steele would make any girl miserable for life?

Simply no one. He doesn't deserve to considering he's just a selfish spoiled rotten dog.

I agree Mighty.

Steels shouldn't go out with anyone, but Dixie seems like match for Steele =)

Ain't that the truth.

Hey, Sasha ended up with Charlie. And in the first movie, he was just as much as a jerk (putting it mildly) as Steele xD And Charlie in the second movie had the exact same motives as Steele in the second movie. He was just more "16 year old high school boy" about it. And yet people loooooooooove Charlie!

Steele didn't /want/ to "exterminate" an entire town. He just wanted to be famous more than actually saving it.

Charlie may not have wanted fame, but he did want riches. And he was using an innocent child to get money and basically was not letting her leave so that he could get more. And when he said he was gonna help the poor, he just bought a few Hot N' Readies for some pups xD On top of that, he stole money, cheated (the ol' Carface way), and above all else, defied God.

And even tho there was some light showing that he MAY have cared for Anne Marie, he yelled at his best friend, who just got brutally attacked by a bunch of dogs /because/ of Charlie. And he was not sorry about it until he was sent to Hell.

Yes, he made things better at the end, but we know what happens to Charlie. You don't know what happens to Steele, and just the same what Steele did seems like small-time antagonization compared to what Charlie did. Quality over quantity as they say.

And as much as I don't agree with Charlie's character in the sequel, he didn't do anything very different, just not as severe as before.

Charlie sees a pretty girl dog ONCE, and throughout the whole movie he's trying to get her to like him, without really knowing much about her, and at many points he doesn't even care what she thinks.

Sasha, in the movie, was trying to take care of an 8 year old boy by herself, until Charlie came around. She wanted to send him home with his family, but Charlie said otherwise, which is irresponsible and selfish of him.

In ADGTH2, Charlie's given a special collar that will give him a solid body (as opposed to being a ghost) for one day. Charlie just wants it to get Sasha to fall in love with him (mind you he's only known her for approximately 2 hours at this point). He doesn't care about his duties to Heaven, he just wants to fulfill his own selfish needs of getting some chick to fall in love with him. (Not unlike Steele.)

Heck, not unlike in the first movie, Charlie in the sequel is even hinted towards using the kid to get (surprise!) money.



Tho that doesn't last long and I think its out of character for Charlie at this point in time, its still hinted.

But above all else, he makes a deal with the devil's pet demon cat thing, Red, putting everyone in Heaven at risk. Far worse than Steele fighting Balto over who's delivering the medicine if you ask me xD

Yea yea, everything's all hunky dory at the head of both ADGTH movies, Charlie gets his girl, but like I said, we /know/ what happens to Charlie. Not Steele. And in many ways they're basically the same character, so who's the say Steele can't change? And who's to say he doesn't deserve love either? xD

Cat: Your making it sound like he's on trial....

And woah, this topic was dead for 345 days...

Is that bad? xD

And then why was it on the front page? Haha

I've never seen ADGTH but I have to admit that you are right.

We could also talk about Balto's motivations for saving an entire town. Let's think about it :
-He was rejected by everyone
-He was in love with Jenna
-Jenna's little owner was sick and it made Jenna sad.

He didn't do that for the town, in my opinion, he saved them for Jenna, to win her heart, but also to be accepted by everyone. Sure, he wasn't a jerk and didn't want to be famous, but he still wanted the girl.


As for the "don't update old thread" rule... It's really starting to annoy me. I'm sorry for saying this but I've read almost all pages of the "animals" forum or the "general - fanart" one and I couldn't help but notice that some threads have been created 4 or 5 times just to avoid reviving an old thread. The forum would appear much cleaner without this rule and it would be less irritating to read it. But it's just my opinion.
