I will go to my grave with this:

Ruby Rhod (Chris Tucker) from The Fifth Element is far more annoying then Jar Jar Binks ever was.


In service of nothing besides a chuckle: the Monday after FIFTH ELEMENT opened I was working a summer job as a landscaping apprentice to a hulking John Goodman-type guy w/ a big walrus moustache. I asked him what he did over the weekend and he said he'd taken his daughter to see it... asked him how it was and he said "It was good except for this one part... this black fella who was... well... I guess he was some kind of sweet-talkin' guy."

I still use this euphemism once in a while when nothing else seems appropriate: Sweet-talkin' guy!  :lookingup:

I'm so glad to see that others share my hatred of Rob Schneider's character in Judge Dredd.

I was so hyped up for that movie when it came out. Saw it opening weekend. As soon as I saw his name in the opening credits, I was like "what the f*** is Copy Machine Guy (his then-inexplicably popular, annoying SNL character) doing in this movie?"

I revisited Judge Dredd a year or two ago and man, it's a great LOOKING flick, the set designs and costumes are absolutely frickin' ace, Stallone looked bad as HELL in the Dredd armor, but Schneider's character just irritated the f*** out of me. Whichever studio suit decided that Judge Dredd needed a wacky sidekick deserves to be boiled in oil.

Think yourself lucky. I've been a fan of the Judge Dredd comics as far back as I can remember and managed to score tickets to the UK premiere of Judge Dredd. I am fairly sure this was the same year Batman & Robin came out to and we also won tickets for the opening night.

The next film I'd get first night tickets to would be Van Helsing and after that trio, I swore I'd never do that again.

I nominate Rob Schneider in "Judge Dredd." I have never felt a stronger urge to mutilate something small and furry with something sharp and infected than when I was watching this movie, Schneiders character was so annoying, stupid and totally out of place, the movie would have been great without that rambling idiot spoiling every single scene with some unwitty comment  :hatred:
I thought Sylvester Stallone was the comic relieve in Judge Dredd.
