History TheScrappy / LiveActionFilms

* Viper from ''Film/TheWolverine'', with any semblance of being a MagnificentBitch taken by [[spoiler:Yashida himself]], leaving her an enormously bitchy SmugSnake with FetishRetardant. Didn't help her case when Viper's characterization here gives her snake powers [[note]](she didn't have any in the comics, as she was originally "Evil Black Widow")[[/note]] and Svetlana Khodchenkova was terrible in the part. As a final punch to the gut, she has absolutely ''nothing'' to do with her comic book counterpart.

* ''Franchise/DCExtendedUniverse'':
** The villain Enchantress was the weakest part of the ''Film/SuicideSquad2016'' (and given how people felt about the Creator/JaredLeto Joker, that is ''really'' saying something). This was thanks to a combination of [[FlatCharacter poor characterization]], [[GenericDoomsdayVillain generic and vague motivations]], and her {{Story Breaker Power}}s that leaves little room for an interesting conflict. Not to mention that she's horribly out of sync with the rest of the movie; watching her battle the Suicide Squad is a little bit like watching Film/{{the Dirty Dozen}} fight [[Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers Rita Repulsa]]. The odd decision to have the character flop about like a [[WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy Wacky Waving Inflatable Flailing Arm Tube Man]] for most of the movie and Cara Delevingne's poor performance certainly didn't help matters either.

** Between the villains, Barbossa and Davy Jones are some of the most popular characters of the franchise, Beckett and Mercer had some fans too and Salazar and Angelica are base-breakers, but hardly anyone is a fan of Blackbeard. He's seen as uninteresting in comparison to the rest of the villains gallery and suffers severe BadassDecay after his introduction (being introduced as ''the pirate all pirates fear'', having a powerful ship and sword, but then not doing nothing anything really cool the rest of the movie). The fact that he changes from a Loving Dad to a ManipulativeBastard to Angelica depending the scene doesn't help.

** Mr. Bullion from the same film is for henchmen. He is hated for being an obnoxious "gangsta" stereotype and a DirtyCoward; [[spoiler:thankfully, he gets gunned down by [[EnsembleDarkhorse Valentin Zukovsky]]]].

* Eric Sacks from ''Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2014''. When it comes down to it, he's just an unnecessary new character who steals the spotlight not only from Shredder, but from Karai and Baxter Stockman as well.

** Between the villains, Barbossa and Davy Jones are some of the most popular characters of the franchise, Beckett and Mercer had some fans too and Salazar and Angelica are base-breakers, however you will hardly find anyone how is fan of Blackbeard, for being uninteresting in comparison to the rest of the villains gallery and suffering a severe BadassDecay after his introduction (being introduced as ''the pirate all pirates fear'', having a powerful ship and sword who can control fire and zombies and then not doing nothing anything really cool the rest of the movie). The fact that he changes from a Loving Dad to a ManipulativeBastard to Angelica depending the scene doesn't help.
** Shansa and Scarfield also suffer this to some degree for being SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute of Tia Dalma and Norrington respectibly, two of the most popular characters of the fandom without having enough screentime to make them feel unice enough to justify it, Shansa got it worse since she only had two scenes and fulfill the same role on Tia Dalma in DMC (give some advice about the enemy and an artifact that can help them in their adventure), While Scarfield at least is shown to be more of a Jerkass and having the role of the HateSink instead of TheWoobie without reedemeable qualities it still follows the same role that Norrington had in the original movie but without getting any significant action sequences,which make many feel his character was rebundant to the plot.

** The Spinosaurus in [[Film/JurassicParkIII the third film]] is this because of its status as overpowered. When your EstablishingCharacterMoment is killing a T. rex (easily one of the most popular dinosaurs of all time, not just the film series), you're going to be drawing a lot of hate. It's telling that [[AllThereInTheManual promotional materials]] for Film/JurassicWorld had to retcon it as the result of experiments to give dinosaurs feathers, and it may have been a forerunner to [[EvilAlbino the Indominus Rex]], but in the end the damage was done, as Spinosaurus only appears as a skeleton in that film smashed by the TyrannosaurusRex, and specimens hidden on Isla Nublar are confirmed to have gone extinct in promotional materials for [[Film/JurassicWorldFallenKingdom Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom]].

** Lex and Tim from [[Film/JurassicPark the first film]] and Kelly Curtis from [[Film/TheLostWorldJurassicPark the second film]] are this because of their shared status as [[TheLoad completely useless]] {{Tagalong Kid}}s.
** Sarah Harding from [[Film/TheLostWorldJurassicPark the second film]]. Despite apparently [[InformedAbility having years of experience with dangerous predators]], she does extremely stupid things such as approaching a baby Stegosaurus standing right next to its family, taking a baby Tyrannosaurus back to their base camp (despite her predicting that T. rex likely cared for its young), and walking through the jungle covered in T. rex blood despite knowing that Tyrannosaurus has a very good sense of smell. She's basically a [[TheLoad complete load]], and her completely idiotic actions end up costing people lives.

** Then there's Amanda Kirby from [[Film/JurassicParkIII the third film]], who easily earns the title of the most hated character in the series. Starting when they land on the island, she spends ''way'' too much of her screen time either [[ScreamingWoman screaming hysterically]] whenever she has even the slightest reason to, or simply being TooDumbToLive. Because of her boneheaded nature, she continuously makes Dr. Grant's attempts to keep everyone safe harder than ever, and it really doesn't help that on top of all that, she has other less-than-admirable traits such as occasional moments of stubborness and selfishness. To be fair though, she ''does'' get a little better and smarter by the end, but at that point, it really isn't enough to make much difference or make up for all of her incredible moments of stupidity that nearly got herself and the others killed.

** Philip the missionary and Syrena for being a SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute to the couple of Will and Elizabeth, Many people thought they feel out of place with the rest of the cast (a priest in a pirate ship)and like Flat Characters who just slow down the plot even more.
** Between the villains, Barbossa and Davy Jones are some of the most popular characters of the franchise, Beckett and Mercer had some fans too and Salazar and Angelica are base-breakers, however you wil hardly find anyone how is fan of Blackbeard, for being uninteresting in comparison to the rest of the villains gallery and suffering a severe BadassDecay after his introduction (being introduced as ''the pirate all pirates fear'', having a powerful ship and sword who can control fire and zombies and then not doing nothing anything really cool the rest of the movie). The fact that he changes from a Loving Dad to a ManipulativeBastard to Angelica depending the scene doesn't help.
** While the fifth movie is a ContestedSequel and mostly of the characters in it are base-breakers, you will hardly find anyone who likes Jack Sparrow in this particular movie, even the biggest defenders of this installment would tell you Jack suffered CharacterDerailment and feeled OutOfCharacter, passing the movie drunk without having any of his usual wit or charm, instead of being a case of ObfuscatingStupidity and TheManBehindTheCurtain passes to actually being TheDitz and TheLoad to the rest of the group, it doesn't help that every important moment he focus more in saying dumb jokes that interact with the rest of the cast (he give ComicRelief in the past, but it wasn't in every single moment).
** Gibbs also got a lot of hate in the same movie for how poorly he treat Jack despise all the things they have done together : when he needed him the most he abandoned him to his luck,then he refusing to rescue him (from being DECAPITADED) until Henry Turner pay him,then he mutiny against him and only go back with him when he got back the Black Pearl and lost his actual ship (so he didn't really have another choice) and no recibing [[KarmaHoudini any comeuppance for everything he did in the movie]]. Some justify abandoning Jack at the begining of the movie as a calmer equivalent of the RageBreakingPoint but that's really it in therms of defending him.

* Philip the clergyman from ''Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanOnStrangerTides''. Many people thought he was an out-of-place character (missionary on a pirate ship) and that his subplot was pointless; that whole interspecies romance thing doesn't fit at all with [[ImmortalitySeeker the main plot]] except for the three seconds or so that Blackbeard exploits it.

** The villain Enchantress was the weakest part of the ''Film/SuicideSquad2016''. This was thanks to a combination of [[FlatCharacter poor characterization]], [[GenericDoomsdayVillain generic and vague motivations]], and her {{Story Breaker Power}}s that leaves little room for an interesting conflict.

** Denethor, the {{Jerkass}} Steward of Gondor, from ''The Return of the King'', gets a lot of hate, and to top that, thanks to {{Flanderization}}, he's viewed in the film only as an unlikable crazy jerk, instead of a sympathetic, complex, Shakespearean AntiVillain.

** It ''certainly'' doesn't help that while many of the other characters, such as the slightly sympathetic Thomas, [[spoiler: receive prison time]] for the reckless party that Costa started, Not only does [[spoiler: ''[[KarmaHoudini Costa get off]] scott free'']], but he's treated like a saint! The writers ''really'' tried to make him like [[WesternAnimation/SouthPark Cartman]], but forgot that even ''he'' had some sympathy.

As a final punch to the gut, she has absolutely ''nothing'' to do with her comic book counterpart.

** Mary Goodnight from ''Film/TheManWithTheGoldenGun'', due to Creator/BrittEkland's DullSurprise acting, and the character constantly coming across as both TheLoad, a DistressedDamsel and a bad ComicRelief, despite supposedly being a trained secret agent. It also doesn't help that Andrea Anders, the secondary Bond Girl played by Creator/MaudAdams (who would return as the main Bond Girl in ''Film/{{Octopussy}}''), is widely considered to be much better-acted and a more interesting character, only to be [[spoiler:unceremoniously killed off halfway through the film.]]

** As bad as Christmas Jones is, she at least manages to do ''something'' useful. Stacey Sutton from ''Film/AViewToAKill'', on the other hand, screams at the slightest provocation, gets captured at the most inconvenient times and forces Bond to rescue her, fails to notice Zorin sneaking up on her in a ''zeppelin'', and [[spoiler:survives over the much cooler [[EvilIsSexy (and hotter)]] May Day]].

* The O'Doyle family from ''Film/BillyMadison'' because they are a family of red headed bullies that mostly say "O'Doyle rules!" This was probably intentional as they all died in a car accident Midway through the film.

** The villain Enchantress was the weakest part of the ''Film/SuicideSquad''. This was thanks to a combination of [[FlatCharacter poor characterization]], [[GenericDoomsdayVillain generic and vague motivations]], and her {{Story Breaker Power}}s that leaves little room for an interesting conflict.

** Minya, a.k.a. the Film/SonOfGodzilla is often panned by ''Godzilla'' fans of all ages due to his goofy nature, odd resemblance to a [[Series/DiffrentStrokes young Gary Coleman]], and the fact that he starred in ''Film/AllMonstersAttack'' which is considered the worst of the Japanese ''Franchise/{{Godzilla}}'' films.
** There is [[Film/{{Godzilla 1998}} the first American Godzilla]], nowadays officially called Zilla due to this trope. He is hated for being [[AdaptationalWimp weak]] compared to the original, lacking the powerful breath vision and durability, as well as having a totally different backstory (he's a mutated marine iguana, not a dinosaur). He also runs away from the military, and looks very different from the original. Ironically, in some international markets, he's actually ''by far'' the most well known and popular monster of the franchise, and it's the Japanese one and the [[Film/{{Godzilla2014}} newer American one]] that's hated.

** Similarly, MOGUERA from ''Film/GodzillaVsSpacegodzilla'' is often seen as a poor man's Mechagodzilla.

* The O'Doyle family from ''Film/BillyMadison'' because they are a family of red headed bullies that mostly say "O'Doyle rules!"

** The villain Enchantress was the weakest part of the ''Film/SuicideSquad''. This was thanks to a combination of [[FlatCharacter poor characterization]], [[GenericDoomsdayVillain generic and vague motivations]], and her {{Story Breaker Power}}s that leaves little room for an interesting conflict. Not to mention that she's horribly out of sync with the rest of the movie; watching her battle the Suicide Squad is a little bit like watching Film/{{the Dirty Dozen}} fight [[Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers Rita Repulsa]]. Cara Delevigne's poor performance didn't help matters.

** From ''[[Film/IndianaJonesAndTheTempleOfDoom The Temple of Doom]]'' there is the [[TheLoad largely useless]] DamselScrappy Willie Scott, who is despised [[CreatorBacklash even by the actress who played her,]] who admitted she's "not much more than a dumb, screaming blonde." While Short Round is useful to a degree, he can get on a lot of peoples' nerves for being annoying.

** Denethor, the {{Jerkass}} Steward of Gondor, from ''The Return of the King'', gets a lot of hate, and to top that, thanks to {{Flanderization}}, he's viewed only in the film as a unlikable crazy jerk, instead of a sympathetic, complex, Shakespearean AntiVillain.

** The earth supporting cast from ''Film/ThorTheDarkWorld'', namely Darcy and her intern boyfriend, Eric Selvic and Jane Foster for stealing screen time away from the much more entertaining and compelling Asgardian characters. The girls are especially disliked: Jane for her [[StrangledByTheRedString underdeveloped]] relationship with the titular character that ultimately [[RomanticPlotTumor brought down the plot]], and Darcy because many people find her just annoying rather than funny. The fact that a lot of much more interesting characters and plot point from the [[ComicBook/TheMightyThor source material]] were [[TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter short]] [[TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot changed]] in exchange for her did ''not'' help. It's a shame since they were liked or tolerated well enough in the first movie, but this one just has no idea what it's doing with them.
** Of all the MCU villains, Malekith the Accursed, also from ''The Dark World'' probably has the least fans. He doesn't have any real motivation for trying to destroy the world, and is just a GenericDoomsdayVillain, especially when compared to the villain of the first ''Film/{{Thor}}''.

** Ironically, her new version from ''The Looney Tunes Show'' is seen as a scrappy by many fans of the original Space Jam incarnation, which are quite likely to be tween girls who initially idolized the original incarnation that have now grown up to around college age. The most common criticism said fans use is accusing Creator/WarnerBros of turning a [[RealWomenDontWearDresses "strong female character"]] into TheDitz. Seems poor Lola just can't catch a break from being called a scrappy.
* Eric Sacks from ''Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2014''. When it comes down to it, he's just an unneeded new character who steals the spotlight not only from Shredder, but from Karai and Baxter Stockman as well.
