shutupman said:I had started writing up little bits about how Chris tries comical plots the same way the decepticons do in the cartoon, and stuff about how Sonchu would do everything he could to thwart Chris, but not actually defeat him - but it started looking like I believed Transformers are real.
The way I look at it though, if Transformers were a real thing and were divided between Autobots and Decepticons - Jerkops, etc would be Autobots, which makes sense even from a very basic standpoint (ie. cops, security guards, etc. are *good guys"), while Chris an all his scheming fits with Decepticon ideology.
He reminds me a lot of the Starscream character in that he knows he's second fiddle, and is constantly trying to usurp the throne from his betters.
Inversely, Adam Stackhouse is definitely an Autobot.
Alec Benson Leary said:In a more general sense, Chris definitely acts much more like a villain than like a hero.
Heroes stand up for others, but Chris never does. Chris betrays others.
Heroes forgive others for their actions, but Chris never does. Chris holds grudges forever. Chris wants Mike Snyder's store to burn to the ground.
Heroes are willing to talk through problems first, but Chris never is. Chris wants to violently attack anyone who offends him, even if they did so accidentally.
Heroes sacrifice their own desires so that others can be happy, but Chris never does. Chris thinks he deserves to be happy first, and then others can be if there's anything left.
Chris is no hero. Chris's actions prove him to be a villain to the core.

It's amazing how much of Chris's personality is based on late 80's/early 90's cartoon villains.
shutupman said:The character I think he fits the most closely with is Starscream. Always trying to be the one in the spotlight, usurp others for their power, use everyone you know for your own benefit, etc.
I don't know anything about the franchise anymore, so I'm sure there's some new character that fits Chris' personality better.

G1 Starscream; from the 80s, likely to have been seen by Chris, all talk and no action, snivels to the one who is more powerful, et cetera...
