Reggie (Free Birds)

Reggie is the main hero of Free Birds. He is voiced by Owen Wilson.

Why He Used to Suck

 * 1) During the film, he was shown as an unlikeable and annoying protagonist here and there.
 * 2) He became a really big jerk to Jake after Chief Broadbeak's death.
 * 3) He was extremely lazy since he became a pardoned turkey, as all he does is watch Mexican telenovelas on TV and wasting the President's money on pizza from the Pizza delivery guy despite him not knowing how to talk to humans.
 * 4) He treated the President like dirt by stealing his bathrobe, bunny slippers, money, his daughter's bed, and tv remote, making them his own.
 * 5) He also refused to let Jake come with him in the time machine (S.T.E.V.E) back into the present. He also said if Jake was smart enough, then he would come with him when it's actually the other way around (sort of).
 * 6) He is also a jerk to the only characters nice to him.
 * 7) He must've stolen a lot of elements from good films such as Chicken Run, Fantastic Mr. Fox, Open Season, Rio, Back to the Future, and Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure.
 * 8) * On top of that, he's also a ripoff of Rocky from Chicken Run, Elliot from Open Season, Blu from Rio, and Ash Fox from Fantastic Mr. Fox. Only far less likable and much more rude, annoying, and egotistical.
 * 9) The infamous scene where he gets a nut blot in his eye by Jake.
 * 10) Reggie somehow being revealed as the Great Turkey by Steve and giving the president's doorknob to Young Jake, despite Jake already knowing that he saw the Great Turkey and having the President's doorknob, which by the way, was already on his door when Jake kidnapped Reggie, which is very confusing.
 * 11) He's a huge coward as he doesn't want to go on Jake's mission and wanted to stay at Camp David and watch tv and eat pizza.
 * 12) He wants to fight for turkey freedom just because he wants Jenny's dream to come true and thinks that it the only reason he decided to save the turkeys, not because the turkeys being killed, not because he's trying to save the future, not because of the baby bird, and not because he wants to help Jake, but because of Jenny, making him a pervert.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) Sure, he may be unlikable, but at least he wasn’t always unlikable during the film. Since he was at least a tolerable character at the beginning of the movie since he tried to warn the other turkeys about the truth about Thanksgiving. Also, he did redeem himself at the end of the film.
 * 2) His design is passable (depends on your opinion)
 * 3) Owen Wilson did a good job voicing him.
