One of the most overlooked sidekicks in the history of fiction, R2D2 communicated more loyalty through bleeps and buzzes than most friends do in an entire lifetime. Always willing to risk it all in the name of doing what is right, R2 is the undeniable evidence that robots are not only able to tell right from wrong, they are programmed to be loyal to the end.
#14. Goose
Maverick might have been the hotshot, but the term wing man exists thanks to Goose. When it comes to setting up manly spikes, sexy girls, epic danger zone high fives and putting bogeys in your sights, Goose was the only choice. Plus, check out that epic stache.
#13. Donkey
Every ogre needs a donkey, or such is the axiom after you see the chemistry between both these guys. Sure, Shrek might have a short fuse and a lack of patience, but Donkey doesn’t care and neither should anyone when there’s real friendship involved.
