A few people and their acts that really grated me:

- whoever looted Homer’s science fair display in **October Sky** ☹

- the Witch of the Waste in **Howl’s Moving Castle.** “Oh, my, that spell I put on you sure is powerful, but gosh darn it, I don’t know how to take it off! LOLOLOLOL” If I were Sophie I would have booted her ass off of the flying machine in Kingsbury. Bee-yotch. :mad:

- Anakin Skywalker for (presumably) cutting down the Jedi kids. I don’t care how Powerful the Dark Side is, I don’t care how much you want Padme to live, I don’t care what kinds of isolation issues you have. That’s just not cool, man.

- the main villain in the Bond movie **Tomorrow Never Dies.** Total douchebag. He’s not just an evil power-hungry maniac, but an insecure asshole as well. I hate that in a villain.

- Biff from **Back to the Future**. Not just for throwing the kids’ ball up on the roof, but…oh, what was it…? Oh yeah, trying to rape Marty’s mom, how could I forget that?!

- James Woods’ character in **Contact**. Oh MAN, what a colossal prick. I wanted to put something large and blunt through the screen every time he came on.

[QUOTE=Yumblie]  
Umbridge in _Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix_ is probably the most vile character in the series (besides big V). Even more than Malfoy, since at least Malfoy has the excuse that he’s a stupid kid and doesn’t know better, but Umbridge is an elected official. She’s not outright evil, Voldy is of course the true villain of the story, but all the things she does at the school are extremely douchebaggersome. Actually in that book pretty much the whole ministry becomes the Ministry of Douchebaggery. I know the OP specified movies and TV but it’s going to be a movie this summer; hopefully they’ll capture the hate and frustration of the whole situation in the movie.

Actually, I think Umbridge is an appointee.

How about Scarlet in gone with the wind? I’ve never been so happy to see a desperate person get shut down than when you hear the “I don’t give a damn” line. Screw her.
