Oscar (Shark Tale)

'''"Hi, i'm Oscar. You might think you know, but you have NO IDEA."

- Oscar's beginning quote in the film '''

Oscar is the main protagonist of Shark Tale. He is voiced by Will Smith.

He is cowardly, proud, cool, street-talking rainbow tropical fish, who dreams of fame and fortune, and in order to achieve his goal, he lies, saying that he murdered Frankie, the son of Don Lino and older brother of Lenny.

Oscar is a professional tongue scrubber at his job the Whale Wash. He was inspired to do this job by his dad but eventually grew sick of it and wanted to be somebody more important.

Oscar's love interest is Angie. However for a long time he didn't realise how he felt about her and selfishly put fame and fortune before her. Things go bad for Oscar when his fame and fortune go down the undersea drain when Lino seeks revenge.

Oscar nearly gets killed by Lino, but then reveals that it was an anchor that killed Frankie. Lino is cool with Oscar and promises that the reef Oscar lives on is now safe from s

harks. Oscar becomes a manager, and he and Angie get back together.

Personality
Oscar would prefer to run away from danger rather than fight it, but he is actually very caring and will do anything to protect his friends from danger. He had no qualms about lying in order to make himself appear more heroic and powerful than he actually was. Oscar liked to think of himself as a ladies man but was somewhat awkward around females, accidentally bumping into a pillar when trying to seduce Lola and stuttering when he tried to tell Angie how he felt about her.

Oscar quickly became close friends with Lenny and was romantically interested in Lola but eventually realized that she was shallow, vain, vengeful and selfish. Instead he fell in love with Angie. He also manages to make peace with Don Lino after admitting that he wasn't a Shark Slayer, thus saving the reef from Lino and his sharks.
