Bella from Twilight ... wait *looks at above posts* damn it.
but without her, the only way to resolve the sexual angst between Edward and Jacob becomes clear... it'd be like some really bad slashfic.

I'd remove Jesus from the Bible.

/zinger!

In all seriousness, I would probably remove Dr. Magnusson from Half-Life 2: Episode 2. He was just completely useless.
[sub]And an annoying prick as well...[/sub]

Alyx. What's that? You wanted an interesting game? Sorry. Not happening. Come back next week for our old friend Dr. Magnussen, though!

The talking spider tanks from the Ghost in the Shell series. >all the sudden one of the spider tanks appears and starts talking like a seaseme street character and completly ruins the atmosphere of the show.
But the Think Tanks have a separated yet combined singular personality, along with their powerful web slinging abilities, arm mounted heavy machine guns, and a mortar launcher...

Every emotional or angsty person in Twilight, leaving it without anyone in the cast.

Also, Gnarl from the Overlord games always annoyed the hell out of me.

The hobbits from Tolkien's works always annoyed me, actually. Merry and Pippin never really did much to make me care for them, even in the last book (when Merry's arms was infected from killing the Ringwraith, I honestly didn't care and kinda wanted him to die or at least lose the arm, plus when Pippin took down the troll and everyone was like "this is on par with Merry killing the head of the Nine" I was like "Bullshit no it's not"). Samwise doesn't really do anything for the first two books, and even in the third his only real characterization is him being Frodo's butler and liking it. Frodo, since he's kind of the protagonist, does a lot more, but by the end I just thought of him as an asshole who gave in to the power of evil too late for it to do him any good, and who was subsequently rewarded with some vague promise of immortality or something.

Oh i'm all for that but does the personality have to be that of annoying and chipper child?

Bring on the heavy weapons but don't give me a rifle that cheers me on and tells lame jokes while i'm trying to shoot someone.

Adam from Doctor Who (Eccleston-era). Point. Less. Waste of time until Capt. Jack came along.

All the non-human characters, including bella since apparently she turns into a vampire and gives birth to vampire-jesus, according to MovieBob. After that, you could focus on two random kids and pass it off as a crappy slice-of-life school movie.

Jar Jar Binks from Phantom Menace. Who wouldn't? I mean, it would actually make that god awful movie watchable.
This.
or maybe Donald from kingdom hearts. Man I hated that guys voice
Ever hear the Japanese version? It brought my hatred of ducks to an immediate boil.

YOU SHUT UP!
A wise cracking rifle would make any game!
*lines up the scope onto an enemy's head* "Are you sure you want to do that, that's not the way to get AHEAD in life" *pauses for a moment, moves the crosshairs to the victim's crotch* "Oooo! Keep him from having Nazi babies, that's a good one."

God knows we like to talk to our guns sometimes, why not have them talk back :p

OY! No need to get testy.

I don't deny that a wise-cracking gun could work in the right type of game or show but not in somthing thats meant to be dark and serious. Theres a time and a place for comedy but it seems like most anime creators don't understand that.

Ashley Williams.
Just to clarify this is the annoying character I manage to hate more than Carth 2.0 in mass effect?

Because those are fighting words if you're speaking of the one true Ashley Williams, Bruce Campbell from Evil Dead.

Edit: Forgot to add my own contribution. Disciple from Kotor 2. Handmaiden is infinitely better, glad I got a choice even if they choose to keep the shitty version canon.

On the video game side, I believe all of us can happily scream "smell ya' later!" to the antagonist from pokemon red and blue. He always appears when you're at your weakest and you end up whiting out, nice.

On a literary note, Nick Carraway from The Great Gatsby. The story would then be.......Hell, it'd be exactly the same. all nick does is talk a lot in the beginning, screams "YOU"RE BETTER THAN THE WHOLE DAMN BUNCH PUT TOGETHER!" and that's pretty much it.


Remove the man with tourettes from the book.
