YOU!..are a coward

[Hartzilla2007]

Baltar in the nuBSG is a spectacular coward, though I suppose this season he's gotten a little more chutzpah.

Dr. ZACHARY SMITH

For me it would come down to these two.

No one mentioned Arnold Rimmer yet?!

Vila Restal, in Blake's 7

Hudson wasn't really a coward, he was merely (understandably) traumatised and stressed at the situation he was in.

Yes, I agree, i don't really remember him doing anything cowardly, he was just defeatist and stressed at that point.
The corporate guy was more of the coward.

Sorry..when a trained marine is made to look like a silly school girl by seven year old girl...that marine is a coward. Sure, he gets better as the movie progresses, but he was trained to do exactly what he was crapping his pants...doing. Coward in my book, only saved by giving his life at the end...

Red Dwarf's Rimmer as previously said.....A new one

Lexx's Stan...

Hardly remember the show apart from he was a janitor coward in a commanad type situation.

Yeah, he reminded me of one of those guys who acts big and tough all the time until the shit hits the fan. He probably spent most of his career backed up by very tough people and behind a large machine gun pointed at inferior opponents. It's easy to have that kind of "courage".

The General in Starship Troopers who was hiding in the closet, then later gets splatted by the flying bug. The crowd in the theater cheered when he died. That is the mark of a good coward, cheering crowds upon their death. (sounds like a Klingon proverb..)

Played by Marshall Bell, whose character in TOTAL RECALL was killed by Michael Ironside's character in TOTAL RECALL. Starship Troopers almost repeats this, but Johnny Rico stops Ironside's character from offing the general.

Compared to getting ripped apart by giant bugs or having his brain sucked out...hiding in a closet sounds good.

Dr. Smith takes the cake. He'd always cower behind the robot or some shit.

Guy Fleegman from Galaxy Quest played by Sam Rockwell. The guy was a redshirt and he knew it. He had some of the best lines in the film ("Didn't any of you ever watch the show?""Are you high?"...)

"Red thingie... moving towards the green thingie... I think we're the green thingie"

One of the best lines in the movie ! I loved how he was cringing when he said it too.

I would say its a tie between the current Baltar and Dr. zachary Smith.

Though that idiot General from Starship Troopers comes close

Q

He always hid behind his pretended omnipotence.

He's just crazy and annoying now; I liked him better as a coward.

Anyone mention Rygel yet?

Yeah Stanley was a coward but he was't a janitor he was a security officer in fact.
