Man how did Titanic Rose lose??? You guys are nuts, she's awful. Especially for being "a hero."

4. Colonel William Tavington (The Patriot)

3. Jenny Gump (Forrest Gump)
2. Timothy Upham (Saving Private Ryan)

99 PROBLEMS BUT A DICK AINT ONE REGION

1. Percy Wetmore (The Green Mile)
4. Edward Longshanks (Braveheart)

3. Rose Tico (Star Wars)
2. Warden North (Shawshank Redemption)

PHILIP K DICK REGION

1. Jar Jar Binks (Star Wars)
13. Dennis Nedry (Jurassic Park)

EGGPLANT REGION

4. Biff Tannen (Back to the Future)

3. Fernand Mondego (The Count of Monte Cristo)
2. Walter Peck (Ghostbusters)

Commodus v. Umbridge Final Prediction.

Longshanks and Mondego are sleepers. I'd put them right behind the top 2.

Honestly, I don't see the big deal with Upham THAT much. It's war man, it messes with everyone. For a movie that is loved so much, I don't know if you can hate a character that should have SOME level of pity. He isn't right, and he isn't redeemable in a sense, but he was frozen. Lots of stories like that from reading into both world wars. Lots of great heroes and moments, but lots of guys absolutely scared shitless.

Not sure why I keep voting for Nedry. I don't hate him, but that laugh man.

Looking at any potential matchup Umbridge has left, I wouldn't pick her in any matchup. But it's possible she just beat her toughest matchup (Amon Goeth). Although the boards hate for Jenny and Upham is very strong so you never know. Commodus is a 2 seed but he's the favorite in the clubhouse right now imo. He will be hard to beat.

I have a bit of an edge guessing sleepers since I'm counting the votes, but it wouldn't surprise me if Biff made a run. Rose would probably be my other sleeper but her hatred is pretty well known around here so it's not like it would be a surprise if she made it to the final four or so.

On screen cowards are just hated in general. Everyone likes to think they would have barged in and saved the day no doubt about it when half of the people would actually probably crap their pants in a similar situation. But it wasn't like he just sat back and watched the action and didn't engage in the battle, he literally was right there and had a relatively easy opportunity to save a friend but cowered out of it. That's going to get you a lot of haters.

100% this. He had no business being in combat. He wilted and it sucks that he didn’t help Mellish but he does sort of redeem himself when he kills that German he talked Miller into not killing.

He’s no where near as bad as….
