You know I was watching Inside Man today and it has Christopher Plummer in it and as I was watching it I realized that Mr. Plummer looks a lot like 1. ((Sorry. This is the best pic of him I could find fomr Inside Man)) I just thought it was really cool.

You're right, the resemblance is nearly uncanny! And I never envisioned 1 with a mustache...but now I can...

I've always wanted to do this with every character so... I shall! *pulls out huge list of notes taken on every character... yes, I am obsessed*
I think that 1 would be this heroic, grand, epic figure to the rag-doll kind, being the firstborn of their race. He's the eldest, therefore, he's the leader. I've always pictured 1 as this uptight authority figure until 9 comes along, rebels, and shows everyone a whole new way of living. Then 1 would loosen up, become forgiving and understanding, and throw away his old life. He would live similarly to 9's standards, including everyone in the battles, and not foolishly running away from them as he'd always done his whole life. His overexaggerations were what made the others afraid of the machines (I know this, because my fear of spiders came from my mom's horror stories... sorry... just thought I'd add that).
1 made these huge overblown images of how horrifying and wicked the machine race was, and it gave him every reason to be considered the wisest and the protector of the rag-doll kind. Once 9 comes around, I bet he worried about whether or not his leadership would be overthrown. Eventually, he realized that 9 was more worthy of leadership than he was and demoted himself.
Once the others begin dying off, 1 realized that it had to happen. He realized that 9 saved them from living conceited and self-absorbed lifestyles in a protected environment.... and allowed them to live fully and in harmony with each other, and die heroically rather than alone for themselves. Once this happens, 1 accepts death, and becomes ready for anything.
... Those are my theories about 1. Hahahahahaha... *hides* I know I'm not 100% right. Those are my guesses. (Most of it are summarizations I've already made in Soul Seekers, which I'm updating existing chapters before moving on...)

Granted the little encounter with the DFM, I fancy 1 was right...
Now imagine fighting both the DFM and CSM at once. I'm sure not even the whole group of ragdolls could handle that.
Well, it's suicide for a cause at least, and it's more apt for the last living beings on earth to fight their way out rather than cower down like that.

no, i agree with ya there. There's something about 1 i just can't put my finger on...something about him just seems wrong. But maybe something happens to him, i mean in one scene of the trailer he doesn't have his cape, his ruby, his penny. Character development maybe? In a clip when the sewing monster attacks him, his penny drops.

When I showed my sister and stepsisters the trailer, they saw 1 and they all had the same conclusion:
"... Is that the Pope?"

"Is that the pope?" LOL
So yeah, I had a massive brainwave last night. For those of you who have seen 'Whale Rider', you will know what I'm talking about.
My interpretation of One is something like Koro Aperana. A decent leader, yet so closed-minded to anything that goes against tradition.
