** Robert Muldoon and Roland Tembo are usually quite popular among the ''JP'' fandom. {{Justified|Trope}}, as both are the OnlySaneMan and GreatWhiteHunter in their respective novel/movie. Not to mention that both are the ones in [[AuthorityEqualsAsskicking charge of the security of a lot of people]].

* TearJerker:

** ''Dilophosaurus'', too. It only fully appears on-screen in the first movie and the [[Literature/JurassicPark original novel]] ([[spoiler: unless you count a hologram from ''Film/JurassicWorld'']]), but you'd never know that looking at the larger franchise: it's in every toyline and almost every video game. Being able to spit poison and having that freaky-cool frill certainly helps cement it's reputation as one of the most unique dinosaurs in the franchise.

** Ziggy is only the protagonist in ''1978'', [[spoiler: and gets relegated to a supporting role in ''1666'' once it's revealed she's the Nightwing survivor and not Cindy]]. Creator/SadieSink's brilliant performance, and the character being brilliantly flawed and yet still instantly endearing, is what contributes to her popularity.

* ''Film/TheSchoolForGoodAndEvil2022'': Professor Emma Anemone is only in a handful of scenes and doesn't have much plot relevance. However, she has proven to be incredibly popular among fans and even those who didn't care for the film. It helps that she is played by Creator/MichelleYeoh and gets some of the funniest lines in the film.

* Wallace Wells in ''Film/ScottPilgrimVsTheWorld''.

* The ''Franchise/{{Saw}}'' fanbase is very character-focused, and pretty much everyone in it loves Adam; despite only being in two out of nine movies [[spoiler: (alive, that is -- he's [[MercyKill mercy killed]] by Amanda in his second appearance and then his corpse is in the bathroom at the end of the second and seventh films)]] and only speaking in one of them, he is a ''clear'' fan favorite. One of the fanbase's running jokes is that he's [[spoiler: not actually dead]], which goes to show just how cherished he is, and the vast majority of fanfiction includes if not centers around him. Speaking of fanfiction, a lot of it is FixFic for him in which he [[spoiler: gets out of the bathroom with Lawrence.]]

* ''Film/ChipNDaleRescueRangers'' had one of the most {{Unexpected Character}}s ever, [[spoiler:the "Ugly Sonic" from the first trailer of ''Film/SonicTheHedgehog2020'' whose UncannyValley design led to enough backlash for the studio to replace him pre-release. And ''Chip 'n Dale'' makes him a hilarious character heavy on the SelfDeprecation.]]

* ''Film/{{War}}'':

*** [[Film/{{Goldfinger}} Oddjob]], a unstoppable silent powerhouse who [[NoSell No-Sells]] all of Bond's attacks and whose NiceHat is one of the series' most iconic weapons.

** The good-natured drummer with the CoolHat who is played by Creator/DonaldFaison helps make his subplot quite fun.

** While some fans consider Martin's interactions with the Armstrong family to be cliched {{Padding}}, there's rarely a bad word to be said about WiseBeyondTheirYears Sass (whose performer got an [=AACTA=] nomination for best supporting actress despite her youth) and her CuteMute brother Bike.
