Characters that you Hate or don't like
 
and maybe it isn't because you hate the character itself, but perhaps the idea or concept or cliches of those said characters.

I'll start.

Female Thor - Yes, I know, comic book character but still. outside of the writing being very bad in this series, what really kills me is the promotion. they promote her as Thor is a woman, but the fact of the matter is that regular thor is still there and he has lost his powers which were given to a woman....that isn't "female thor" that is "female with thor's powers"

Ramona Badwolf (Ever After High) - the very concept of Ramona enrages me. Okay so we have Cerise Hood, daughter of Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf. she is a very distant woman whom hides under her hood, afraid to be found out as a freak that shouldn't even exist. Everything that we have seen of her has heavily hinted at that she is an only child, that she is one of a kind (2 episodes focuses heavily on her family and a book that focused heavily on her home life.)
her first scene appearance did zilch, she literally stood around doing nothing - could have had the whole scene without her.

I hate the other female character who gets in the way of my shippings!!!!!!1111!!!!!!! MY OTP MUST BE CANON!

Krutch 04-27-2016 11:02 PM

At the moment? Felicity Smoak. I really don't need to explain.

Powder 04-27-2016 11:23 PM

Mona Lisa comes to mind.

Prowler 04-27-2016 11:39 PM

Hmm tough question. I can think of plenty of characters whose concept I like but dislike their execution but not the other way around.

I guess Bania from Seinfeld fits both bills? I personally never found him funny, just annoying and cringeworthy.

While I don't dislike the concept of his character I must say that Chase was my least favorite member of House's team.

I didn't dislike Mona Lisa. Although I'd have preferred her to have always been an animal instead of a human pre-mutation. That makes her whole interest in Raphael a bit creepy. I'm not disappointed she was only in one episode, anyway. I've never cared much about the Turtles having love interests.

Cure 04-27-2016 11:50 PM

I really don't like Black Widow in the Marvel movies. She was the only major flaw of Winter Soldier for me, her and her dumb jokes.

I didn't really dislike the original one, mostly just her fans. I'm more put off by the new one.

ToTheNines 04-28-2016 06:43 AM

Boba Fett. He does nothing, yet people go ape **** over him.

Second this.


Harry Potter. Such a boring twat. Frankly, almost every character in each book is unbearably obnoxious.

Shark_Blade 04-28-2016 07:17 AM

Han Solo. Annoying with his bad boy routine. Indy is better.

Darth Vader. So silly with his helmet and asthmatic voice.

ZariusTwo 04-28-2016 07:19 AM

Kamala Khan: Her Inhuman connection is barely touched upon, and on top of that she's a fanboy hero, and that type never works. You want to live vicariously through these heroes, but you don't want these heroes pointing out all the cliches and trappings of their world in a meta sense as it shatters the illusion.

Don't get me wrong, it's a nice education on muslim culture, and her home life is pretty interesting, and I like a lot of her supporting cast, but she let her best friend hook up with someone else because she was too selfish about her own superheroics, making me feel sorry for the current girlfriend because Bruno is clearly only settling for her. Kamala's all pouty about it now and she's the one to blame for it.

Batgirl of Burnside: Started off as a fan, but as the title advanced, it became too obvious it was catering to hipster tumblrities. Babs acts nothing like she used to, she acts like a repressed teenager in a twenty-something body. Once upon a time, she was the one who acted more maturely than Dick, and now I feel Dick is way more mature than her.

CyberCubed 04-28-2016 01:18 PM

LOL @ people disliking Han Solo or Darth Vader just because they're popular character. In fact those two characters also largely popularized their character tropes for all of fiction since they debuted in the 70's long before everything else was written.

I don't hate Han Solo because he is popular. I don't like his character.

I don't mind Vader. I really don't like Solo.

snake 04-28-2016 01:46 PM

-MCU Black Widow
-Dio Brando (great character, just not likeable)
-TMA Spiderman
-Brook from One Piece (he's alright)

He can be annoying sometimes (like when he asks for panties every two minutes) but I like his design, fighting style and Devil Fruit. (Yes, I'm already up to Thriller Bark in the manga. .-.)

plastroncafe 04-28-2016 01:52 PM

Jack from Lost.
Ward from Agents of SHIELD.
Cyclops from X-men.

ie: Bland Hero McGoodguy

Bebop and Rocksteady from TMNT
Gene Hackman's Lex Luthor from the Superman franchise

incompetent badguys who are still somehow supposed to be a threat.

Allio 04-28-2016 02:45 PM

Libby from Star Darlings the cartoon - the cartoon portrays her as a hyperactive boy-crazed always talking pinkie pie, while the book itself portrays herself more like rarity whom is generous to a fault, and she finds her talkative friend on the verge of annoyance.

CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy 04-28-2016 03:10 PM

Marvel's THOR.

Felicity Smoake, Ray Palmer, Kendra Saunders.

Krutch 04-28-2016 03:18 PM

Routh's Ray Palmer? Blasphemy! (granted, I haven't watched LoT)

Ummm...
Duncan Kane from Veronica Mars.
Scotty D from iZombie.

Oh, and Jayne Lynch in mostly everything.

shuriken 04-28-2016 03:52 PM

Jane lynch is good in small doses. I liked her in Wreck it Ralph and Talladega nights.
Umm Sam Whitwicky from the transformer movies? Actually everyone not named Optimus or Bumblebee in those movies.

Henry Cavill as Superman. Just seems like such a bummer, like he hates himself. I mean he just looks so strained after doing anything. Even smiling. I don't know how much of that is Cavill and how much of that is Snyder.

Not gonna lie I kinda like Felicity Smoak :tcouch:
Then again I'm barely on episode 8 season 3 of Arrow.

Also anything with Tom Green. Holy s**t why

TLP 04-28-2016 04:18 PM

+Rick (Rick & Morty) - Annoying, unfunny twat. Never knew why people find him so 'hilarious'.
+GIR (Invader Zim) - Just flat-out annoying.
+Felicity Smoak (Arrow)
+Spider-Gwen/Gwenpool (Marvel) - Part of the Gwen Stacy and Anti-MJ bandwagon started by Slott.
+Sheldon Cooper (The Big Bang Theory) - Hipster.
+Walder Frey/The Mountain/Ramsey and the Boltons/High Sparrow/etc (Game of Thrones) - Kill these evil f*ckers already, D&D.
+Russell and Denny (Transforers:RiD2015) - Painfully unlikable, and they get away with their paper-thin disguises waaaay too often.
+Zone-tan - Animated r*pist.

And last but not least:
+Barry Allen (The Flash 2014) - Lies about being the fastest man alive, yet gives away his speed to a mass serial killer he could have easily beaten, thus endangering billions of lives across the multiverse.

Agreed. Small doses are fine. I also kinda liked her in most of Party Down.

ProactiveMan 04-28-2016 11:54 PM

John Connor. The only one I really like is the 'future war' prologue guy from T2, and only because he looks cool. Kid John Conner is a twerp, Nick Stahl's is useless, Christian Bale's is a wiener, and Jason Clarke's is a robot.

Also Flounder from the Little Mermaid. What a tool.

Jephael 04-29-2016 12:15 AM

Miss Umbridge from Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix... talk about a psycho b*tch!!!

For a while I was actually getting sick of Batman, though it turned out I was just sick of how Justice League Unlimited was going overboard with making him excessively dark and brooding in order to make him more distinct from the animated reboot that came out around that time.

LeotheLateBloomer 04-29-2016 12:38 AM

I have a feeling DC's going to overplay that aspect of him for laughs in Justice League Part One.:lol:

Let's see....

Venus, Eric Cartman, Neutrinos, Mona Lisa, Sasuke Uchiha in Shippuuden, Chris Thorndyke (Sonic X), Tuxedo Mask, Sarah, Jimmy, and Kevin (Ed, Edd, n' Eddy)

Autbot_Benz 04-29-2016 12:48 AM

Jaden Yuki from Yu-gi-oh GX he is too happy and when he is dueling and its for either his friends lives or the fate of the world he is always laughing and not taking it seriously like Yugi did.

Wesley 04-29-2016 09:55 AM

A few characters that I don't like off the top of my head are:

priya koothrappali from The Big Bang Theory
Charlie from Lost
Sally from Sonic SatAM and Sonic himself in season 2 of that cartoon

Spike Spiegel 04-29-2016 10:56 AM

Rey and Finn from The Force Awakens
Fem-Thor
Deadpool
Baby Dil from Rugrats
MCU Thor--just a boring character
MCU Black Widow--too inconsistent
Ma Barker from the 1966 Batman TV show
Vickers from Prometheus
Wesley from Star Trek TNG

ZariusTwo 04-29-2016 11:37 AM

A couple of more

Post-OMD/Mephistoverse Spider-Man: Not the same character in the slightest and has had some of the most embarrassing stories ever printed, ones that would have never seen the light of day under Shooter in the 80s.

Post-OMD/Mephistoverse MJ and Black Cat: See above. Benids is repairing the damage done to MJ in Iron Man, but you'll never see that happen in ASM while Slott is at the helm.

Scott Lang (comics): Another hero-turned-unlovable loser who's had too many misses as a character to be a hit with me, he needs to be more like his movie incarnation (which is even sadder because I think the intention right now IS to make him closer to the movie version, but goes way wrong).

CyberCubed 04-29-2016 12:18 PM

The entire Simpsons cast after Season 9 or so. Its hard to believe The Simpsons have now been bad for more than 60% of its run since they're in Season 28 now.

snake 04-29-2016 02:07 PM

Yeah, I'm gonna say Felicity when I watched Flash, because she sucks.

Yeah whenever I watch a Simpsons episode post 2005 I find myself hating the characters more and more.

And it's been a while since I've heard about people discussing the latest Simpsons episode. I forgot it was still on.

CyberCubed 04-30-2016 02:00 AM

Simpsons is almost up to 30 seasons. I can't believe it.

ZariusTwo 04-30-2016 02:34 AM

To me, the last episode of The Simpsons was "Homer's Enemy", it not only effectively paints a vivid picture of the impending decade or so where Homer's stupidity becomes the defining trait of the whole show, but it also ends on the perfect line that defines my viewing habits in regards to this show

"Change the channel Marge"

Shred Head 04-30-2016 04:48 AM

Spider-Gwen (Marvel): A good idea that was done terribly and has become such a giant Mary Sue that I just cant even stand seeing now. I just have to hope once the current regime at Marvel is gone this character will stay in limbo for awhile then brought back with competent writers one day.

Finn: Nothing more then a giant red herring who is pretty much the franchises new Jar Jar. Hopefully that changes in the next movie.

Ahsoka Tano: Shes the Scrappy Doo that the franchise didn't need or want. Disney for some reason wont kill her off despite her being in the original Trilogy era is such a bad idea that screams fan fic. Out of all the expanded universe characters that get dumped like Kyle Katarn and Mara Jade shes the one that sticks around that just bugs me.

Cyclops: He used to be like Leo the leader without much personality that I didn't pay much attention to but I didn't hate. Now I just cant stand the character also for awhile they went out of there way to make Storm into the second banana despite the fact that she was the better leader of the X-Men.

Sasuke Uchiha: He has no character like at all yet he pretty much becomes the main character. He killed the naruto manga for me.

Sakura Haruno: She has only two character traits and there both awful irrational anger and shallow love for an abusive asshole. Thats is it thats all she has.

The worst offender any time Greg Cipes plays the "lovable" goof. He was sorta tolerable in Teen Titans as Beast Boy but TMNT Mikey has just been unbearable. This version of Mikey is the reason I cant even watch the new series anymore.

snake 04-30-2016 10:35 AM

C'mon, Finn was the best new character in TFA besides Poe.

MsMarvelDuckie 04-30-2016 10:50 AM

Ill agree on Nick Mikey. He's gotten better, but he's fallen from my favorite to second least favorite turtle in this version. That says something when I like both Donnie and Raph better.

One I dislike from the 90 movie is Danny. He's a tool for the entire time until he finally grows a conscience and helps rescue Splinter. Never mind that he was the one who got them attacked both times..... If he'd led the turtles to the hideout, they might have gotten away without a fight. Instead he runs off on his own. The only reason they were ready was that they woke up and found him gone. Why they even let him stay there when he ratted them out the first time is beyond me.
