Paris from Troy (2004). How I wished he died instead of Hector. His brother and father were killed and his city was ruined because of him and he survived in the end? That's just unfair.:mad:
 
I remembered one I will always "hate".

The librarian from Philadelphia. When he asks Andrew to go to the research room, he's so freakin' nasty about it!
 
OMG, my thoughts exactly.

Those 2 characters made me want to barf. It was like this was what they were thinking:

"Oooo...we both like poetry so let's have an affair and make no attempts to hide it because we don't even need to feel sorry that we are hurting someone and we don't need to feel like we are doing anything wrong even though they call this cheating. After making a fool out of everyone including ourselves, we could just run off! Like, whenever we want! Even from each other! No need for responsibilities. No need for closure. And at the end of the movie, everyone would miraculously applaud for us regardless of our behaviour because one of us is dying and the other is now going to give a sentimental speech about the death."

:rolleyes:
 
I want to add Kay from the Godfather. Michael should've been with Apollonia (sp?)
 
All of the main characters in Before The Devil Knows You're Dead except for the mother, cause we don't get to know her. They have no redeemable qualities, one is a whiny little brat, the other is a sleazy druggie, the wife cheats for attention and the father is lame. I love Philip Seymour Hoffman, even as his badass self in this movie, but the end of the movie was terribly depressing. I liked no one and was left like, wow, everyone really is awful in this film.

Josh Harnett's character in The Virgin Suicides because he is a jerk of the highest order, who leaves poor Lux on the football field alone. He is the trigger point to the girls all committing suicide. My father and I have intense discussions about what an asshat he is.

And I agree so much about Briony in Atonement. My BFF and I had this big fight, her saying Briony didn't know better and Briony was too young and blahfreakingblah. The girl ruined their lives and was the reason Robbie and probably Cecila ultimately died. I was happy she ended up alone and never spoke to her sister again. She deserved it.

And Cruella De Vil. I love villains (hate Snow White, love the Evil Queen) but she takes it way too far. She scared me as a child like no other character.
 
Haley Joel Osment in A.I that kid was so annoying...seriously I was hoping for thta thing that destroyed robots to catch him
 
I never really enjoy any films with Kirsten Dunst in. She just gets on my nerves for some reason :confused: the same goes for Richard Gere.
 
I was thinking of this topic for a while now and without reading I see my responses are already listed here!

Percy from The Green Mile, and the family from Million Dollar Baby. Both just make me so mad.
 
I watched it for Josh but it was soooo bad. I couldn't take Chris Klein and Leelee.



I think you mean Harold.
I loved Ziddler. I even liked the Duke. I even liked that bitch Nini :lol:

I hated Mary Tyler Moore in Ordinary People. What a cold bitch. But she played it so well, b/c you see her usually as Mary Richards or Mrs. Dick van Dyke (sorry I forgot the character's name). But to see her in that movie, I hated her.
 
Owen Wilson's character Jack Ryan from The Big Bounce. The movie was mind-numbingly dumb and Owen's character made me want to kill myself. there was just no sense to the plot or any of the people in it, even morgan freeman who IMO is an awesome actor.
 
Taylor ICA. they're so annoying, I'd totally pick the Phantom. :lol:

Will Turner in POTC. I just can't stand that character, he gets on my nerves.

Gollum in LOTR. but that must be, because he scares me. :lol: I always fast forward the parts with him in them. haha

the Duke in Moulin Rouge, what a horrid slimy man. can't stand him

almost every character in High School Musical, the only one I like is Ryan and then Sharpay and Troy are semi-tolerable but everyone else. Blech. very annoying.

and there's many more characters I hate. :lol:
 
Commodus from Gladiator. Evil, evil (incestuous) man! He was so hung up on gaining power that he killed his own father and didn't care who else he hurt in the process to become Emperor. I hate him for what he did to Maximus and his family, for scaring his sister and threatening his nephew, and for stabbing Maximus in the end before the final fight. He's HORRIBLE!

Joaquin Phoenix was awesome playing him, though.
 
Sondra Terry (Alice Braga) in Redbelt.

I can't even discuss how much I loathed her in that film. She absolutely BROKE my heart.

Truthfully I hated nearly everyone who wasn't Mike Terry (Chiwetel Ejiofor) or Laura Black (Emily Mortimer). I :bawl: through nearly the entire third act.
 
The characters I love to hate are the more reality based ones that think acts of kindness and charity are signs of weakness and that being a good person (usually, what the main character is all about) is pointless and completely wrong because all that matters is money, wealth and power.

This may seem stereotypical, but a good example of this is in all the movies that take place in corporate America, there is always one character who is the epitome of greed and selfishness and his/her role in the story is make everyone else feel inferior just because the main character (hopefully) behaves like most of us do in real life and that is value their friends, family and other things over money.

The most recent example of this is in "In Good Company" where the second in command calls Dennis Quaid's character a "Over-the-hill loser" just because he has the wisdom to question that money is not what makes the world go around AND that this approach will actually loose the company money in the long run.

A lot of you younger posters might not find these characters very irritating of hateful... But trust me. Once you get out into the real (working) world, these characters actually exist and they not nice people in any sense of the word and they do try and justify their miserable existance -- since they don't have family, friends a lot of times -- And all you can do is just shut up and listen to them or lose your jobs...

Unlike in the movies where the good guys actually do win and show them that there is more to life than money, greed and power.
 
Al Capone hun :lol:

Eric Bana in Troy, he just looked like a lost puppy the whole time.
 
- Tommy from Butterfly Effect. Usually I like mean characters, but in this case I didn't.

- Arwen from LotR. To me she's one of the most boring and annoying characters in movie history.

I'm sure there are more, but they don't come to mind right now.
