Fair warning, but they are at least using it to open discussion instead of only posting it, so the context does not favor moderation.

Indeed, I usually try to avoid to moderate “off-topic” anyway, happy to see that the post got some traction

I never hated Skylar, but I get why she’s in the meme. Anna Gunn does severe so damn well.

I also don’t mind Dolores Umbridge’s actress because I hated her in the book far, far more.

Jack Gleeson should come back and give it a shot again. And I can’t tell who the other one is.

Jeffery Dean Morgan as Neegan (sp) in The Walking Dead.

I think his role as the Comedian in The Watchmen was more hatable, at least the character was pretty awful in a grounded way instead of the silly over the top Walking Dead kind of way.

I stopped when he showed up, not because of him as I enjoyed him in other roles, but because it was when two of the last three characters I enjoyed watching were killed off. One character wasn’t enough to keep me interested, and it was looking like they were just going to be doing the Governor 2.0 with how much they were playing him up.

He was also great as the Winchester’s dad in the early seasons of Supernatural.

That character was so well done (The Comedian, I don’t remember Walking Dead well enough). He’s more tragedy than contemptable depending on your sympathies, but that was kinda’ the point. It’s almost the point of ANY “good” bad character. Give them motivations that are understandable by non-psychos, just make the character make poor (poor, not stupid) or mean decisions.

… and his acting helped round out the character instead of flatten. He genuinely seemed like a good guy that got insanely jaded and went off the deep instead of just a bad guy.

He was contemptible as Neegan. Very well played.

Good-looking bad people are always liked no matter how badly behaved their characters are.

That movie is so fucking good and Jeffrey Dean Morgan absolutely killed it as the comedian.

The Comedian was my favorite character from Watchmen. Not because I think he was good, misunderstood, or any kind of role model. I just found him very compelling.

The Comedian somewhat repented though. He hated himself for all the evil he’d done. He was awful, but at least he realized how awful he’d been in the past and felt bad about it.

Skylar wasn’t even evil or anything. Just a normal good person. Walter was an absolute piece of shit who chose to reject legitimate help and support, and instead do illegal villainous things.

But that’s also the mark of a well written show, when you’re compelled to take the side of a man making the wrong choices, to walk that line with him. And then be yanked the fuck back by the writers at the end.

“I did it for me. I did it because I was good at it.”

Masterful.

Jack Gleeson is acting again. I saw him pop up in the last season of Sex Education in a small role.

Hart Bochner because of his character Harry Ellis in DIE HARD.

Paul Reiser because of his character Carter Burke in ALIENS.

Obnoxious douchebag characters were definitely a thing in 80s #movies.

Jake Lloyd. His performance just makes me hate George Lucas more.

I do let that hate flow through me!

Well, she REALLY made it clear she was out of her depth when it spun out of control.

Just watched it with my kid and they loved it and were actually treating it like a scary dystopian flick, which I did not see until through their eyes. Fascinating.
