Another big sleazeball would be the cocky bearded guy who hits on Bruce Willis wife in Diehard. Small role, but he went out with a bang.

Oskar from Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. God I wanted to punch that kid in the face the entire movie. What an annoying little fuck.

Most recently, the stereotypical stoner from The Cabin in the Woods.
Kate Capshaw in Temple of Doom. Bitch almost ruins the entire film for me.

I agree with Sacha Baron Cohen in basically anything as well. He just isn't funny to me in the slightest. I just find all of his characters extremely annoying and not in the over the top annoying that it becomes funny way. The only thing I didn't mind him in was Hugo.
I agree with him being stereotypical but honestly the character worked fine to me.

Re: Movie characters that you hate.
You're forgetting about the part where she stood by him after he lost everything playing poker. I can only assume they had a heart to heart and he promised her that he'd never do that again. And then when he broke the promise and started playing poker again she dumped him once and for all. I don't blame her one bit. It would be like a hardcore alcoholic promising his girlfriend that he'd never drink again and then getting pissed when she dumped him after he came home drunk as a skunk.
If I was dating a hot piece of ass like that and the only rule was that I don't play poker. Guess what...I ain't playing poker. It it weren't for a stroke of luck at the very end of the movie, he most likely would have ended up dead at the hands of KGB, or if not dead, working for him for the rest of his life. Matt Damon's character was a moron in that movie. But Worm was even worse.

I think you're giving her too much credit and the film never really portrays Damon's past poker playing as destructive or even a real addiction to warrant the annoyance that is his gf.

[QUOTE=Charlie Goose;11216702]Karen (Diane Franklin) from The Last American Virgin.

Man, that brings back memories. Yep, between that character, who I think is one of the most terrible female teen characters in film history, and the supernatural incest victim (not kidding) in Amittyvile Horror 2, it's no wonder Diane Franklin's career didn't last much past the 80's. Her agent should have been hung.

Mine is Ruby Rhod from The Fifth Element. He is the only character who turned a movie I was enjoying into a movie I hate more than any other movie in the universe.

I liked all of the characters in Fifth Element because they were way over the top. Between Oldman, Tucker, Jovovich and Holm, they really went well against Willis' soft spoken, straight guy.

I haven't watched Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, but if you think you want to punch that kid in the face, you won't BELIEVE the urge you will have if you watch the Walking Dead. Annoying fuck doesn't begin to describe the kid in that show.
Oh, and his mom is a piece of work too.

Julianne Moore and Vince Vaughn's characters in Jurassic Park 2: Lost World.
Malcom is advising them to be cautious around the giant devil monsters and Sarah's acting like he's silly only to be surprised when she accidently causes a stampede because her camera starts making racket.
Then Nick wants to let loose DINOSAURS in the middle of a camp site. So they can be free. I get the sentiment but the stupidty of these characters really made me hate them.

Re: Movie characters that you hate.
I'm with a lot of people here, in finding certain kid characters to be extremely annoying and punch-worthy. The first three I can think of would be:
Young Anakin from Phantom Menace
The whiny, buck-toothed son from Poltergeist
The kid from Indian in the Cupboard.
