yeah gokua was awesome. most of movie 9 blew movie 8 out of the water. amazing martial arts fights, gohan is powerful instead of weaker than piccolo. trunks is powerful instead of being just another minion of goku. tien and yamcha and krillin are in it. gohan ssj2s the hero. the henchmen are cool and badass instead of being goku fodder. the villain isnt overpowered which makes his defeat make sense and satisfying. another tournament which was cool. far superior animation and choreography. my only complaint is bojack. too generic. i would have liked a bit more than "hes a space pirate whos evil..and stuff" but its better than "KAKAROT WAAAGGGHHH"
Not disagreeing with anything you said because I basically agree, but I have to add... Vegeta being made out to be a punk ***** yet again. I mean, in basically every movie he's in, he makes this awesome ***** entrance, only to get his ***** kicked so Goku can take center stage (rare exceptions include Movie 9, obviously).

I don't think there's a real answer for who the "best" movie character is. There are way too many opinions for that to be possible. But I personally think the "coolest" movie character is Janemba.

well thats only because toriyama and toei hate him and love goku. writers usually lean toward giving out favouritism.

Yeah, which is why GT is a total Goku-fest.

dear god....ill never understand why people like that one dimensional mess over real characters like cooler and tapion
Because they are memorable. Even if they are as flat as cardboard, if they are memorable, they will be liked by a fanbase.

It takes a mere second for treasure to turn to trash.

My favorites are Burdock and Broly. Janemba would have to come in third, with Bojack in fourth. I saw the Turles movie and own the DVD Uncut version, but, I thought the whole tree thing was a bit lame. The only movie characters with decent plots would have to be Bojack, Janemba, Burdock and Hirudegarn. Wheelo and Garlic Jr. were lame. Turles' tree seemed a bit lame as well, Lord Slug was another overused concept of abusing the Dragonballs for eternal life/immortality. Cooler would have been... cooler, if his form actually stood up better to SSj Goku. The concept of Cooler was good, but, the way he was underpowered just like Freeza vs SSj Goku was kind of sad.

Meta Cooler kind of ruined Cooler, in my opinion. I found it lame how fragments of brain ruled over a giant spaceship. I mean, what? Super Android 13 was decent, but, the whole "Super Android" concept is confusing and sort of a plothole, though, it is borderline good. Broly's MOVIES were my favorites, as they had a lot of good action and drama, but, Broly's character sucks. Movie 10 was, in my opinion, a LOT better than 8 and had a lot more depth, I just wish Vegeta made an appearance. Broly's backstory is simply dumb, though. I love him for his epic facepounding, not the half-assed story thrown together by the developers of the movie.

Bio Broly was completely idiotic. The worst of them all. In this case, the third time was NOT the charm.

I am stating my opinion, as you are yours. Cooler is weak compared to many characters, and the fact is I don't really like him all that much anyway. To me, Broly's evil personality in Movie 8 was more appealing. Darker, and unbelievably unstable and psychotic. In Movie 10 he has completely lost his mind, explaining why he doesn't say much other than the name of the person who defeated him. So, if you're trying to say he stupid...give me a break. Cooler was too full of himself. Too proud. Like Freeza. Except no jokes. That's why I don't like him.
How is Cooler weak compared to most characters? Firstly just like Ussj Future Trunks said strength doesn't make a character good. Secondly how can he be weak when he toyed with a post Namek Goku. Flying straight through his kiao ken x20 Kamehameha without any damage is a pretty impressive feat. Sure SSJ Goku kicked his ***** but that's only because Goku would have trained the whole way back from Namek. Plus every movie villain died very fast after Goku turned into a SSJ form or used the spirit bomb or fused. If you have gone your whole life being a ruthless villain without anyone strong enough to stand up to you wouldn't you be proud and full of yourself as well.

I'm not trying to be an ***** by the way I'm just trying to get why you think Cooler is weak
Cooler is obviously not the weakest. But again, he's obviously not the strongest. Many villains surpass Cooler in strength. 14, 15, 13, 16, 17, 18, 19, Cell, Bido, Bujin, Gokua, Zangya, Dabra, Bojack, Broly, Janemba, Hirudegarn, all the Buus, etc. You say strength doesn't make a character appealing, but that is your opinion, not fact. It is my opinion that strength can play a vital role in the appeal of a character. That's a lot of the reason why I like Broly, because he trashed the Z-Fighters who were at a fairly adept level. That and the fact that he's a Super Saiyan villain. Some characters, like Cooler, I just don't like because I just don't like them. Same reason why USSJ Future Trunks doesn't like Broly. We all have are own preferances. Some people like characters because they seem intelligent or cool-headed. Others like characters because they had a grand background. And yet others like characters because they are strong, or did something that made them ooh and ahh.

as i recall, the fans wanted goku back to beat buu instead of gohan. toei just gave you all what you wanted and now you hate them for it. hypocrites.

"Bio Broly was completely idiotic. The worst of them all. In this case, the third time was NOT the charm"
i fail to see how. if you love him for facepounding, there was plenty of that.

Well of course they are all stronger than Cooler as they all came in after Coolers movie.

But anyway I'm not trying to make you like Cooler. I'm not like a certain someone who is trying to make everyone hate Broly lol

I think Broly is lame. Plot wise I was deeply disappointed with him. When I saw him on the cover with his jewelry and all and the title "Legendary Super Saiyan" I thought he would have this Saiyan history plot. He's just a crazy jerk. I honestly don't have any understanding of why he's so popular.

I loved Jenemba because he stepped up the threat level. He didn't threaten people with death he actually distorted the universe, Heaven and Hell and could have probably destroyed it all. Which makes him an actual threat.
I mean if you are 100% sure there is an afterlife and you've been there before, is it so bad to die? If something can destroy the after life then it becomes scary again.
And Jenemba is so cute. Look at his happyface. :D

I like Bojack. Just because he and his henchmen die all cool. Plot wise there isn't much to him.

Turles has a nice movie, giving everyone fair screen time and the life-sucking Tree of Might was just a cool idea. Though I would like clarification if he's under the command of Frieza's empire or not. I mean the other Saiyans are, is he too? Or are he and his men just rouge agents?

That's all I can think to say now.

He has a fair amount of power. He's a villain in the truest sense of the word. He is an evil Super Saiyan. The only one besides Majin Vegeta mind you, but even moreso. When you put these things together, you MAY be able to realize why people like him.

I'm pretty sure though that Turles is a space pirate. He works alone with his crew too. Do you think that Freeza would knowingly employ a Saiyan who has the secret to overwhelming power at easy access? He would never.

Like I've said so many times....... If Broly wasnt a Saiyan then no one would give a crap about him.
Yeah he's an evil Super Saiyan villain... and? Oh right thats it

The ONLY thing Broly has going for him is his strength alone, nothing else.


Now i dont really have a favourite character but if i were to pick from the movies i would pick Bardock and Tapion.
Their both just pure awesome and epic.

I also like:
Janemba - Nice new Villain
Cooler - Just really awesome

toriyama stated that turles is a former part of frieza's saiyan army...

he's on a mission when frieza destroyed planet vegeta...

he abandoned frieza's army and he formed his own crew and conquer planets...that is the time he became a space pirate...

that BATTLE SUIT and SCOUTER are issued by planet trade organization led by frieza and his family... :)
