    For me it would come down to these two.

    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...

    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".

    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.

    :guffaw::guffaw::guffaw: 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 :)
