For the Historical Figures list, would religious figures, e.g. Jesus, be allowed?

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Is Jesus a historical figure?
For the Historical Figures list, would pop music legends, e.g. Justin Beiber, be allowed?
Historical figures sounds good, except for all the ott winston churchill fanbois I expect to see in that thread, he was so overrated.
Paul Scholes is a historical figure, right?
Hitler will win hands down. Or hand up.
Yes, I think so. His super powers might be fabricated though.
Uh oh. I think we need some criterias if the historic figures list isn't going to spin out of control.
Should he die before?
Is Sir Alex a historical figure? this could be funny.
I think should we stick to the vote, but remove video game from the mediums.
Cheers. Not much better than this list to be fair. A bit more diversity though. Dial M For Murder not being on top 100 is criminal. Not the best movie of all time, but I think that it is the most perfectly realized movie ever.
Also, no Spirited Away

No Ghilbi at all in Top 50 FF.I'm fixin' for a Steve Jobs argument. Bring it on fanboys!
Aw crap, I misunderstood top 50 historical figures to mean top 50 figures who've had the biggest influence on human history (which I suppose it still is, in a sense). My bad.
Did Jesus exist?
If we are doing historical figures we have to limit it to not having anyone who's alive.
And No Gods!

Right, I'll post the new thread for Historical Figures now. I will try and give a well-rounded description of what we are looking for.
Yeah...We'll have to watch a few films first though. A few cinephiles on here, I reckon we'll have a decent list. Duffer/Duffy could be the MC again... And where's Mehro?
why don't we say historic figures can be anybody that done did stuff from between 509 BC to 1980 or something?
Btw, will put it in the General, as opposed to Entertainment.
Would be happy to officiate.
Do Albert Einstein, Newton or Aristotle count as historical figures
Or only emperors, heads of state, dictators and the like..

Excellent, you can do Characters in here then. Let duffer takes over Figures in General.

That could be a starting place for criteria and we could adjust it to our needs

I think there needs to be some restrictions to historical figures, otherwise it could be just as hectic as songs.
No, in my opinion, but the figure (or character, I suppose) of "Jesus" has had an impact on human history.
Yeah why not? All of them did a lot more for mankind than Jeebus.Do Albert Einstein, Newton or Aristotle count as historical figures
Or only emperors, heads of state, dictators and the like..
I feel like we should go all the way back to 509 BC, so we can include all our favourite romans too.
Won't mind Ceasar in top 5!
Hello! Hello!
If Hannibal Barkas doesn't make the top 10, I hope you all die by an elephant stampede.
I think Marcus Licinius Crassus will end up somewhere on my list. Maybe some others too.
I'll put Scipio Africanus instead, just to see your meltdown.
Could do, as long as they had a week or so between closing dates I could do that?
Or we could do a Top 50 Roman's countdown next?
I really dont rate Inception and it pains me that its on the list yet no CAGE
Democracy is dead.
I'm definitely down for that!
Sure, just give me enough time to rewatch the tv series Rome.
