Great Character, Terrible Movie

[Commodore Schmidlapp]

Sometimes there is a really awesome character that is wasted in a really bad movie. For instance, Riddick, I don't really like Pitch Black or Chronicles of Riddick, but I think the character is badass, just the movies suck.

Everyone loves Space Conan.
While we're on old vin I have to say Dom from the fast and the furious movies. He's coo but the movies are all kind of crap with huge plot holes. Only FandF movie I liked was Tokyo Drift.

Righteous Kill...Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro had good characters but the script fell flat

Riddick was an awesome character. I should watch his animated film to see if it's a good addition. I wonder how his video games fair, I heard they just released a new one.

The first game was better than both of the movies.

Well at least he has good material to work with somewhere.

Sandman in SM3. Not a great character but still better than the movie he was in.

 

[StorminNorman]

While I would call the movie mediocre more than terrible...

Tony Stark.

 

[deathshead2]

Whatever that lead kids name is in Akira. I hate that movie so much though. The manga is awesome though.

 

[Joe Von Zombie]

Spider-Man, The Punisher, Daredevil....

 

[Franklin Richards]

Skeletor was Awesome in The Masters of the Universe.

Frank Langella is better than joo!!!

 

[odiin]

Scarmanga in The Man with the Golden Gun. You can never go wrong with Christopher Lee.

I would nominate the awesome MICHAEL SHANNON in Revolutionary Road. Not that the movie's bad because it's not; however, I wouldn't buy it on DVD.

 

[Rishi]

oo... I've got a bunch of these, but they're mostly iconic people in iconic movies that I just didn't dig.

 

[Master Chief]

Not really a terrible movie, but Smokin' Aces was loaded with great characters. Soot was f**king epic.

 

[SPIDER-MAN-ROX]

Pinhead in all the straight to video Hellraiser movies.

Building a bad sequel such as Ace Ventura Jr. around the great chracter of Ace Ventura.

The Rob Zombie remake of Halloween.

 

[xwolverine2]

hugh jackman as van helsing.
along with kate bekinsale.

jill valentine RE2

Sub-Zero,Scorpion,and cyrax.. mortal kombat 2

 

[hitmanyr2k]

The Dodge Turbo Interceptor in The Wraith. You know the only reason they made that movie was because of the car.

Cisco (Lou Diamond Phillips) in The Big Hit

Jason Voorhees - Friday the 13th Part 3 and 7.

Jet Li in Lethal Weapon 4

Godzilla....in just about all of his movies.

 

[ttotheusher]

Jon Voights character in Anaconda. Cheesy B-movie, and Voight played it like a bad Marlon Brando impression. He's worth watching for.

 

[Carmine Falcone]

Hellboy 2 is filled with awesome characters like Hellboy, Abe, Johann Krauss, The Evil Prince and countless monsters, but I don't think it's a great movie. It's far from terrible though.

Pirates of the Caribbean 2 and 3 are a bore. But damn, Davy Jones is ****ing awesome.

 

[RKO]

Dare I say....Spawn.

 

[livrule]

Whats with the Pitch Black hate?? ....

Incredible movie that worked because Riddick was PART of the story and not the entire focus.

 

[Schlosser85]

Gangs of New York is not a bad movie....but Daniel Day-Lewis as Bill the Butcher towers head and shoulders over everything else, in my opinion.

 

[redhawk23]

the temor brothers from smokin aces, so so crazy

 

[Punisher Rising]

Amanda Young in Saw III. Terrible movie and the worst of the series IMO, but she was awesome.
