Heroes you yelled "YOU IDIOT!" at.

[WolfThomas]

The Joker actually gets shot in the head by batman at one point by accident (I only read the comic after the shot to the head so I don't know what happened).

That was a cop dressed as Batman.

Part of three batman replacements the Gotham City Police Department trained in case Batman died. One was pumped full of venom and another sought of demonic. It was based off a silver age story that was handwaved as a hallucination Batman had while entering a sensory deprivation chamber to try and understand the Joker, but the person who managed it, Dr Hurt was actually an ancestor of Bruce Wayne, who was made immortal by a Monitor that was tainted by Darkseid but because of the time travel effects of the Omega sanction it occurred before Final Crisis.

Spoiler: Speaking of ASoIaF (Clash of Kings spoiler)

Stannis isn't much of a hero, but he would have been a much better ruler than Joffery or the Lannisters. What I don't understand is what seems to be his complete inability to understand how to operate a military campaign. He should have pursued the forces of Highgarden, bringing them into his own forces or destroying them, then met Tywin in the field (BEFORE he could hook up with Mace Tyrell) if he was able to best Tywin then he should have went for King's Landing. Without a force at his rear to worry him he could have put the city under siege and starved it out easily, the populace was already starving and angry at the Lannisters.

Spoiler: I can see why he went for Kings Landing

It's the big win. Kill Joffrey. Take the Iron Throne. The Lannister would quickly end up alone.

One paper King's landing should have been much easier. A lot of that difficulty was thanks to Tyrion, the wildfire, the harbour chain and even things like the Mountain men killing Stannis' scouts. Even his negotiations with Dorne would help later. Then accounting for Tywin being such a Magnificent bastard to have arranged the Red Wedding so he could basically abandon the front against the North or that Loras Tyrell would want vengeance so badly (Stannis wouldn't know he was Renly's lover).

When the villain is holding a hostage with a gun pointed to his head and tells the hero to drop his gun. And the hero doesn't SHOOT HIM IN THE FUCKING HEAD! Bonus dumb points when the villain is holding only a knife.

Because chances are you'd end up shooting the hostage instead (hostage/villain shifts, unsteady hand, natural bullet spread, etc.). Even if your shot hits the mark, it may not drop him immediately, giving him time to kill the hostage. And finally, even if both you shoot him and he dies, the villain's body will likely jerk and pull the trigger/yank the knife, ending in a dead hostage.

The best chance in such an instance for the hostage's survival is to talk the bad guy down or put him in a position where he couldn't immediately execute the hostage.

No, the best chance is to shoot him, if you put your gun down he will shoot you (the only thing stopping him is the bad script).

You open up the door at the back of the barn. It's very very obvious that they've been eating people, but Lee just believes everything those fricking guys say, YOU IDIOT.

hmm

a certain scene in Mass Effect 3 I said "what the fuck are you doing shepard!?" literally..out loud

Hm...Which scene was that, if I may ask?

 

[sagitel]

ezio in brother hood. there is a level in which you have to survive waves so that reinforcements come and catch ceasare. my problem is that the asshole is standing behind a fucking net of bars with a lot of holes to fire that bastard from! i can not see why ezio couldn't shoot him.


and Shepard in ME3. the cutscene which you make the geths destroy the quarians or the quarians destroy the geths. i could find tons of solutions they both could survive!

Considering he's still alive by X-men 2 and fucks shit up for everybody once more, she really should have made sure.

There's a reason you don't see cops shooting bad guys off of hostages.

 

[RamirezDoEverything]

I wouldn't call him a hero but Walt from Breaking Bad, there have been many times I think he is just a moronic asshole.

Yea, he's becoming a power hungry asshat now.

The only tolerable characters in the story are Huel and Jesse. *****.

I was talking about one on one situation. When bunch of cops are involved they can lower their weapons (he's not going to try to shoot them all) and then the sniper shoots him. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=9146695629367704512

it involved Traynor (the dark skinned british chick)

Spoiler: romance spoilers

ok so traynor wants to come up to your cabin to hang out...which is cool

as you show her around the shower is brought up...you have 2 dialouge options

1.offer her to use the shower (oooooohh-kay I can see where thats going to go)
2. the choice was "is that it?" which implys a very direct aproach to...most likly the same thing

so what the heck am I supsoed to do?....I have to take the shower options....so shes there in the shower very unsubtly hinting you know what...and shepard is just like sitting there, and has the option o join her or not

and its like well if shepard didnt join her in the shower then it seems like she's incredibly niave...like hey! use the shower!...nothing odd there at all

Not the main protagonist, but a "hero" nonetheless, Kisala from Rogue Galaxy. She repeats any crucial information regarding the story usually... right after that info was said by someone less mind-numbingly spaced out. She also happens to be "the girl" so no one catches her on it. GAH.

[Demongeneral109]

Im honestly surprised that Emiya Shirou hasn't been brought up, and no, im not talking about his suicidal tendencies, that is fully explainable...

What im refering to is A) his furious denial that Shinji isn't a complete monster and is obviously behind a certain bounded field(trying to avoid too many spoilers) and
B) his meetings with Illya in the park during the fate route, i mean SHE's BESERKER'S MASTER AND TRIED TO KILL YOU, WHY ARE YOU MEETING HER BY YOURSELF YOU MORON??? he totally deserved to get his dopey ass kidnapped...

So.. whenever the plot railroads me into meeting someone in the fate route, I keep waiting for the option to not go alone that never comes, dammit shirou~

I actually did think about him in my last response though I forgot his name. But also, I was referencing the anime version of himself. I've not seen those visual novels. Watched the whole anime before I knew they existed.

I noticed you did reference to him, it really frustrated me aswell. I mean really, is it so hard to use your brains? Or is your bloodstream focused on something else that you have to jump infront of the saber again and again and again just because she is a girl and girls cant protect themselves dont dare to imagine she'dd have to protect you? Get over yourself!
I mean I can understand why you wouldn't want anyone to put themselves on the line protecting you. But if you also have to be the person who puts him self on the line for others all the time and have to be the only person doing so, then you're just giving a whole new meaning to the word hypocrit.

Also heroes that are unintentionally written to suffer from borderline syndrome and can only see scenarios in black and white bother me like hell!

Anyways enough raging at fictional characters... : p

To be fair, like i said, i don't mind his chronic jumping in front of fatal attacks thing, he's distorted, so his saving people thing is a compulsion on the level of Lelouch's Geas, i'm more complaining about his trusting the worst possible people... who are clearly evil or his enemies... like i said in my post, he met Illya BY HIMSELF when she had already tried to kill him... like i said, he deserved to get his stupid ass kidnapped

Also on his fairly blatant sexism... he does get better about it when he realizes that saber, is, in fact, really goddamn badass, particularly in UBW... not that it stops him from trying his damndest to get killed jumping in the way of attacks or anything~

The funny thing about your last comment is, that the seeing issues in black and white is a critical theme in the UBW route... how he deals with the inherent contradiction of his beliefs is.. interesting~

Your missing out on so much if you haven't played the VN yet~ Honestly, some of the best characters and story I have ever seen, Its kinda fun to find out different aspects of the characters as the circumstances change in the routes... but it is a major time sink~ so worth it though

This. Shes so damn stupid.

Also, the main guy from Shadow Hearts. Was told that a nearby town was evil, goes to said town and goes in to rest, while resting, hes attacked and is suprised when everything turns bad.

Spoilers dude. Some people are still getting their way through that.

OT:
Batman doing anything. He's got mental problems, and it shows because he will never ever kill joker ever because it's the bad thing to do.
I wonder how many people he's inadvertently killed? It's not like he holds any punches when he fights, I'm sure he has killed people before.

Is this the 1st area in the game after the opening because i more got the impression that he knew but was having fun and wanted a fight but acted kind of innocent about it to keep alice from going into a complete panic.

OT: The enitre main party from White Knight Chronicles

Scene

Everyone: We saved the princess let's celebrate.
Me: Uhh guys we killed a minion the bad guys are still around lets take the princess and go.
Everyone: Woohoo we is THAR GRATEST
Evil Guy: *Grabs princess* Ha! got her, so long heroes.
Me: *Develops eye twitch*

This then happens twice more and my eye twitch has developed to a full body spasm along with much yelling and profanity and contemplating switching sides.

Also any comic book hero that refuses to kill irredeemably evil people, batman, various x-men especially the idiot woman from origins. Perhaps Superman for not killing Lex Luthor but there may be a lot of problems with that since Lex seems to have an amazing PR department.

 

[MrGalactus]

Hello escapees, I'm here to vent about various characters in film we're supposed to side with and ultimately end up hating, it can be one thing, it can be the entire way they do things, or it can just be them.

First, it's the dumb love interest from X-men Origins:Wolverine. (I know, shitty film), for the one last thing she does. She has the bad guy, someone who has shown himself to be willing to kill, hire others to kill, control others with various means to kill, to turn a cheery man into an expriment that required the kidnapping of children and adults, and the forced extraction of their powers, and then ruining someone's life forver. She has this bastard under her control, gets him to stick his gun to his throat...... and makes him walk off.

What
The
Fuck.

Apparantly this would make her "just as bad as him."

No.
No it wouldn't.

You would be killing him, a man who is responsible for the deaths of many, the trauma of more, is going to cause many more problems and deaths for everyone years later, is a borderline genocidal maniac for whom the end justifies the means,and the end is pretty fucking bleak, and you think making him blowing his brains out will make you just as bad as him?

Clearly her brain was damaged.

No, no, she basically tortures him in a really, pretty brutal way. She tells him to walk off until his feet bleed, then keep walking. Bear in mind, they were on an island. It was pure chance that Stryker didn't die and ended up snapping out of it, or whatever happened.
Oh, and murder, regardless of who you're murdering, makes you the bad guy, especially if it's done for revenge.

OT: The first ever Nightwing comic I read had a character in it called Tarantula. Tarantula was Nightwing's sidekick-in-training, and she was also a total psycho, not that the comics addressed that. After her and Nightwing fight and defeat Copperhead, Nightwing is basically immobilised on the floor, and Tarantula, being insane, decides it would be best for their budding friendship if she raped [http://media.comicvine.com/uploads/11/115300/2253102-Nightwing_Raped.jpg] him. She also decides to manipulate him into legally marrying her. Long story.
But yeah, my answer is everything DC ever wrote that had this version of Tarantula in it.

He has killed lots of people. On purpose. Sometimes with guns. Frankly, if you look at what Batman says and what Batman has done over the years, you can see he is a massive hypocrite. And yeah, Brucey probably does have some mental problems.



EDIT: I forgot to mention a really obvious one;

The entire way through. What the living, flying shit is wrong with Samus in this game? Seriously.
