I'd go with 1. Up to the end he was the only one who was really a HUGE pain in the neck. 8... well he was just high. Isn't it nice to know jocks still exist after the apocalypse! haha.
I can see why 7 would be rather Mary-Sue like, but I thought she added a much needed female presence to the group. I saw it not as much cliche' as, "I mean she was a ninja, how awesome was that!"

Lets see...Out of all the machines, I'd have to jump on the bandwagon and say it was the blimp things. I mean, yeah they were cool and everything. But, serriously? They could have done so much more with them. The movie could have lasted longer if they had only made one of the blimp machines, had a longer scene with it hunting them, and one of the characters having to deal with it and then all of them taking it down. Plus, where did all the others go? There were about ten of them floating around in the sky???=/ And least favorite character: I'm somewhat tilting on the fence between 9, 8, and 7. 7 is just because I never really take a liking to any of the females in movies. Especially since she was the only girl, it just seemed too obvious that she would hook up with 9 at the end. And there's the fact that she had to go and get kidnapped; that didn't help. 8...Well, he's not exactly my least favorite, but he's more towards the end of the nine of them. I have to give him major brownie points for some of his lines. "He warned you." "Subja...what?O.O" And the magnet scene certainly helped!X3 But, yes, I agree with everyone: they didn't give us much of a reason to mourne his death because we didn't get to see any other sides of him. And then there's 9. It's pretty simple with him. First off, he was pretty much the same from beginning to end: the 'we have to go save him!' sort of guy. It would have been a little better if he showed more fear and hesitation on towards the middle of the film. But that would probably fall into the 'not long enough movie' catagory. And second, he was just too much of a know-it-all from the very beginning. For example, when he made the light staff. Wouldn't that be more of something 5 should have done? He totally just stepped in and pretty much took over the spotlight. Not that I'm complaining, though. I love 9 to death. But if it weren't for 5 I'm sure I'd hate him. (is a total 5x9 luver! ;D) Out of all of them, I'd have to say 7. Sorry if this is too much. I'm on a major writing spree right now!

My least favorite character was.... The lack of character development! Which I now declare is a character. To be honest, there isn't a single character that I immediately thought "Omg, he/she's so well thought out and put together so nicely!" No. Each one seemed a little messy to me, but, anyways... And my least favorite monster? NONE. I love em all, though I agree some of the monsters could of had more done with them. C: But, all slight disappointments aside... I WORSHIP this movie. XD

I didn't particularly dislike any of the ragdolls; they all had their strengths and weaknesses. But the Seamstress... OH DEAR GOD THE SEAMSTRESS. That thing has popped up in my nightmares more than once. I mean, that thing grabs up innocent stitchpunks and binds their limbs and then it sows their mouths shut. Eek. Definitely my least favorite.

Least favorite character? 8. Just felt like a bully... I hated 1 when I first saw the film. But when I saw it for the 3rd time I began to like him a little. I want his hat. *shot* But yeah, least fav charrie for me is definatly 8. I didn't even feel sad when he died. Aaaand least favorite monster would be.... eh, those snail-blimp things. XD My friend and I call 'em Croissant-machines XDDD

Y'know, at this point in time, with the level of analysis I've seen and put into each Stitchpunk, I don't dislike ANY of them. Even 8, who I initially saw as a heartless bully. Even 1, who I IMMEDIATELY wished a painful demise for sending 2 away. So... of the Stitchpunks? Some are just more favorite than others, but I don't dislike any of them.
Machine wise? I was actually pretty cool with all of them. Fabrication Machine, Cat Beast, Winged Beast, Snail-Blimps, Spider-Bots, even the friggin' SEAMSTRESS was too creepy to hate. But, out of all them... I think the Walkers are the ones I hate the most. Maybe it's just the concept of mass, heartless slaughter, but the way they would mow down the humans in the flashbacks or propaganda posters really freaks me out. Mr. Fab had feelings that we could identify and empathize with. Even the Beasts had sort've... base emotions we could understand. But the Walkers... they're too similar to the techniques of genocide and mass destruction we use today. Really freaky.
...Plus 5 loses his eye thanks to them. Jerks.

Why all that hate for 8? I mean, he's funny, he has some great actions, and he really does have some character developments! I think he's only a bully because 1 wants him to be one. He tries to comfort 1 when the cathedral is on fire, and at the end, he's even nice to 6!
I understand your point about 7, but her character design is not as women-unfriendly as some other some female characters: for instance: think of 'The Smurfs'. Here is Smurfette the only female one (OK, there is another girl, but she is like six years old). All males try to impress her, but all she does is brushing her hair and stuff. But 7 is, asides from the only female one, a great warrior!
My least favourite character: 9! I mean, he's the type who can't do anything wring, except from 'that thing', and it's so like "oow, he's the hero of the movie, so he musst get the girl!'

I don't dislike any of them, but in terms of the ones I like the least... probably 8, if only because we didn't really get to know him as well as some of the others. I guess that's what happens when you only say five and a third words in the whole film...

Least fav ragdoll? 8. Know one likes a guy who gets high and yet has the responsibility to gaurd someone, even if the guy is a jerk (1, per say.) Even with a magnet! Despite his brawns and stuff, he was none too bright. 1...I hate him too. He didn't alert and tell the others to go back to 5 when he slipped from the army hat...
Machine wise? Walkers. In the movie, one of them shoots like, 500 bullets at someone who throws nothing but a torch? Endless and merciless slaughter. Seamstress gave me nightmares, but she was nightmaric in the awesomest of ways...she's the favorite of my machine list.

I despise 9. He is just such a blatant Gary-Stu . . . *shiver* A Gary-Stu is an uninteresting character with no flaws. 9 had flaws! He awoke the Fabrication machine, he tried to hit a bullet which would blew himself up if 2 didn't stop him, he isn't good with weapons, he fails at flirting, and on top of that, everyone keeps calling him an idiot! If a character is considered an idiot, that is a flaw. Bottom line: 9 is not a Gary-Stu! Through I must admit, 9 was my least favorite character for some time until I gave the movie a second watch and got to know him better. So, after learning to like 9 (even though he still isn't my FAVORITE character), my least favorite characters would have to be the twins. I'm sorry, fans, I don't hate them, it just seemed to me like they were just there to look cute. I like all of the ragdolls, but 3&4 are the least appealing to me. My least favorite machines were the crawlers cause they didn't do anything. I mean seriously, all they did was crawl over 8's dead body. Uuuuummmm.....I guess Shane put them there to be dramatic?

9 is not a Gary-Stu, I agree, Crispy. XD He's too cute to dislike.
I don't dislike or hate any of the characters; I just have a list arranged in order of favorites. XD On the bottom is 8. :\ He didn't have much to do in the movie. He was like suppporting cast. XD You didn't really bond with him.

But, but, ah luvs evvybody!! okay, if I had to fuss, I wasn't too impressed with 7 at first. She just struck me too much of the contempoary, politically correct Disney heroine. Her big sister role with the twins eventually warmed me onto her, tho, even if she did hurt mah kitteh. 8, well, I didn't have a problem with the bully thing so much as the bully/dumbass-thug thing. And his reasons for siding up with 1 weren't made clear. He does have his redeeming moments, like fighting the winged beast and the magnet scene. 9. Okay, yeah, I know, he was a naive punk with otherwise good instincts. But he had the corniest lines in the movie.

My least favorite of the stitchpunks were probably the twins. They had such a fascinating concept behind them, but more needed to be done with them.
As for the monsters, I'd say the spiderbot swarm. It was rather anticlimactic when they all began to swarm 7 and 9...and then just sort of vanished when 7 and 9 got out. There was all this build up and little delivery on what could have been a swarm of formidable foes.

I'd say 8, because he barely does anything. Like, you could literally take him out of the movie and it wouldn't really affect the plot at all.
And I liked 7 until 9 rescued her from the Seamstress. After that, she just became a Mary Sue, really. :/ 9 was kind of a whiny b****, too. I honestly couldn't understand why 1, 5, 6 and the twins STILL managed to follow his lead after 7 and 8's kidnapping. I mean, he started the whole mess and all, lol. But I dislike 8 the most, basically.
As for the machines, I'd say those spider-like drones in the factory were pretty pointless. I guess you could say I dislike characters that aren't used to their full potential. XD
