Contest: ENTER SF&F Avatar Contest: Famous Faces

[Kai "the spy"]

We love 'em, we love to hate 'em: celebrities, people living in the view of camera lenses for the people's entertainment, infotainment or whatever reason. Everybody knows them, or at least more people know them than they know people.
And they're not limited to reality, no, even the fictional universes of our favorite genre media have their own movie stars, pop singers, comedians, and news anchors.
This contest is about those guys and gals. I will allow law enforcement or public officials, but in those cases the source picture for the entry must show them through the lense of an in-universe camera.

Let's have three entries per user.
And, as usual, all those entries must be 200x200 pixels and/or 1 Mb data, or smaller, and absolutely have to be safe for work and Google.

Here's hoping for a healthy amount of good entries. Have fun!

God exists in the Simpsons universe, so ...


I'm kidding, but I'll still allow it.

We did get a regular, non-Treehouse of Horror, episode where the Simpsons are taken to Kang and Kodos homeworld and a time travel episode with the Futurama cast, so I would pretty easily push it into sci-fi now.

Technically not through an in-universe camera lense, but as it is the scene of a media interview, I'll allow it.

Thank you. According to the rule posted ("I will allow law enforcement or public officials, but in those cases the source picture for the entry must show them through the lense of an in-universe camera") I thought the pic should be okay in any event as '66 Bruce is neither law enforcement nor a public official. He's a rich playboy known for inherited wealth, practically a male Kardashian.

Yeah, you're right. Sorry, I was distracted and only half remembered my own rules. Shouldn't post in-between customers at work.

But I had actually thought about Bruce Wayne beforehand, and yes, the Adam West version - as well as pretty much all live-action versions since - would definitely qualify as celebrities, with Kilmer and Clooney getting talked to by Gossip Gertie while appearing at public events, Bale being told he'd have to walk a hundred miles (or whatever) to meet someone who didn't know his face, and Cavill's Clark Kent being looked down on for not instantly recognizing Affleck's Bruce Wayne. Pattinson is also instantly recognized and made a fuzz about when he appeared at the funeral, so while he's reclusive, he certainly is famous.
The only one I actually wouldn't consider a celebrity is Michael Keaton's version, considering neither Vicky Vale (who's a photo journalist) or Alexander Knox (who's a local journalist) recognized him when they met him face to face.

What about a minor local celebrity?

Willy Scott, The Temple of Doom

Good point about Keaton Bruce. Of course, even then he was famous, but famous in part for being reclusive, kind of like post-"Aviator" Howard Hughes
