I'd say his return at the start of the android arc respected the character a lot more than F ever did.

I think him getting killed by Trunks was a better ending however I like how he managed to get stronger then Ssjb and get the upper hand on both Goku & Vegeta even though he was weaker then they were when he did which shows how smart he was.

I definitely think they should've kept him alive instead of killing him right away cause him dying made bringing him back seem pointless.

I loved Cooler's Revenge, that dubbed soundtrack is one of the best in the movie franchise in my opinion. I honestly hope the next non-canon movie of DBS (If we get one) has a bad ass soundtrack like that. Playing Change by Deftones while Goku transformed into SSJ really gave me goosebumps.

Easily Cooler's Revenge.

ROF is the equivalent of an overindulgent fanfiction with recolored Deviantart forms and the nonsensical, pointless revival of an old villain. Never does ROF's story justify itself in existing whereas at least Cooler's Revenge served as an interesting what-if story with a clever ending.

ROF, because it feels like there are actually character arcs. Or at least, attempts at character arcs. Cooler's Revenge doesn't do anything new, because it's a non-canon Toei movie that doesn't try to do anything new.
I could have gotten into anything...and yet I chose the story aimed at young Japanese boys about martial arts, and later about super-powerful aliens punching each other really hard.

Cooler's Revenge. At least the power scalings made a bit more sense back in those days.

Cooler Revenge:
The animation was fluent
The American OST was BADASS
Had one of the best SSJ transformations
Piccolo was at his best in the film
Cooler was a more interesting character than Frieza in ROF
"I'm THE BEAN DADDY"
The ending was beautiful and had the best type of irony

Revival of F
Goku did a one inch punch


HOW ARE THESE MOVIES BEING COMPARED AGAIN?
The Last Jedi is a terrible movie

Definitely RoF. Fights are much better, humans fight once again, animation is beautiful and Freeza will always be better than that Toei's clone of Freeza.
