who is your favorite villain from Ghost in the shell stand alone complex?

The Laughing Man, all the way. If it weren't for Kuze's connection with Motoko, I wouldn't be interested in him. The Laughing Man is a cool villain... if you can call him that. He liked working alone and had a logo of his own which said more about him. \n\nThe Laughing Man was righteous and philosophical. Kuze was just a terrorist high on heroism.

Trigun rocks. Wolfwood's my favorite character, because he's very down-to-earth (Vash is cool too, but can get a little flighty sometimes). That cross would be a b*tch to carry around all day, though.

Empire Strikes back is my favorite. It was dark and twisted with an ending that was bad for the good guys. How often does that happen? Yoda is introduced and Luke meets his dad and gets his butt kicked. The duel between Luke and Vader was awesome you can easily see how much bigger and stronger Vader was than Luke but you also could see a glimmer of what Luke would become.\n\nThere are alot of great characters but I have to go with Luke Skywalker. The sheltered farmboy who not only saves the universe but is basically charged with rewritting what it is to be a Jedi. He was the average kid next door kinda guy who was thrust into extrodinary circumstances. Yeah, Han Solo is "cooler" than Luke but ask any kid coming out of the theater who they wanted to be and all of them said Luke.\n\nOh and Malakai the Dark One, I hate to break it to you but Luke took the Storm Trooper armor from TK-421.

My favorite is Legends of the Fall.  Even though he plays a rather disturbed person as Triston, I think he looks the best in this film. He just hasn't been the same to me since he cut his beautiful hair!  \n\nIn a close second would be Thelma & Louise.  He was so young feisty as a hitch hiker.  Too bad he turned out to be a thief!

fav: Miroku\nleast: Kagomes friends \ncuz they are always trying to break up her and inuyasha and setting her up with that guy (forgot his name) who likes her in her time. They should butt out because they have no idea what is going on with her.

Sasuke because he has a that tough attitude. I think its cute. I also like Naruto and Kakashi but not Sakura.

My favorite has always been Gambit, but since this is the movie category, and Gambit isn't in the movies then I would have to say Wolverine.

SAC is pretty unique, no other anime has really addressed awareness-identity technology vs biology and what it means to be "human" topics in such depth.  In my opinion, the series really gets interesting in StandAlone Complex:2nd gig, when you see how much the assimilation of cybernetic parts affects each character's decision making and approach to their jobs and lives.  And of course the Ghost in the Shell movies are classics.  \n\nThe style of animation is very detailed but fairly common, check out Witch Hunter Robin for more like it.  That also has a similar style of narrative.\n\nAbove all,  I recommend Cowboy Bebop - it's probably the best anime series of the past 10 years- a bit more lighthearted than Ghost in the Shell since it blends drama/action/comedy, but fantastic characters, and some great stories.

I have to say Bugs. He's the coolest, most laid back cartoon character ever. Plus, he also doesn't mess around when someone wrongs him. Woe to the poor soul who ever makes Bugs utter the words "Of course you realize, this means war".

Plastic Man (or Mr Fantastic). I don't like them much as far as characters, but think of those powers. The implications during S_E_X are mind blowing.

The Beyonder hands down

gotta go with homer j (simpson).  i know he's a cartoon, but he's my favorite because he's most like the general population and not afraid to admit it.

Micheal Myers forever! I love him and his vendetta against his family, LOL. I can't wait for the next movie to come out. He still has two family members left to get, if I'm not mistaken!!\n"Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream, make him the cutest that I've ever seen..."

If I had a choice I would want it to be someone I can easily fight, outwit and defeat. Since most of them are big, strong and have a vicious weapon I'll choose something SMALL that carries a slighter weapon. I'd pick the little wooden Tribal doll that chased Karen Black around her apartment in the film "Trilogy Of Terror". It's quick and has some really nasty, long, sharp teeth but given it's size and weapons (He used a tiny spear then a steak knife!) I can kick him through a window or at least crush him into the floor.
