We all know the phenomenon. To offset the all too serious hero, there is a goofy character which is meant to lighten things up. Yet these characters have a knack of spreading gloom and pain whenever they appear. Jar Jar Binks of course raised this speciality to new heights (or should that be depths?). So who, in your opinion merits the Jar Jar Binks award for annoying comic relief.

My nominations are:
The orange haired kid in the live action version of Fist of the North Star. He is so annoying that the director had him killed off two thirds down the movie.
The cook in Deep Blue Sea. I found myself cheering the shark on to get him.

The FDA has been looking for a generic name for Viagra. After careful consideration by a team of government experts, it recently announced that it has settled on the generic name of Mycoxafloppin. Also considered were Mycoxafailin, Mydixadrupin, Mydixarizin, Dixafix, and of course, Ibepokin.

Lou Briccant

Nat Pendleton in the 1947 Bela Lugosi/George Zucco film "Scared To Death".  While I enjoy this movie, Pendleton's bumbling idiot character REALLY makes me want find a new hobby.  You get the feeling watching this movie, that Pendleton is the same in everyday life.  I just hope he didn't father any children.

There is also Dirch Passer's Peterson in Reptilicus. Talk about goofy. Especially his Encounter  with an electric eel.

Not sure if it has to be from a movie or not, but Tails is the worst character ever..

I nominate a two-for-one: those f*cking robot sh*theads from Star Odyssey! Every time those idiots were on screen with their irritating "we're trying to be robotic versions of Sonny and Cher!" shtick, I wanted to slit my wrists. I would like to learn how to vomit acid just in case I ever come across the tw*ts who wrote that garbage!  :hatred:

I second the nomination! These two were so irritating, that I had to fight the urge to claw my eyes out and rip off my ears!!

And you thought Trek isn't cool.

Mordant in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie.  Granted, I love the movie, but he didn't exist in anything previously or since, and was just a one off character.  They never explained where Squat and Baboo were either.

I found that New York guy (I think his name was Joe) in "Destination Moon" especially annoying. They should had left him on the moon at the end, he did volunteer after all!

Mr. DS

Sandra Bullock in Speed and Speed 2. 

Chris Tucker in anything.

C390 in War Of The Clones (side note, I like C390 as comic relief in the other films but this one he seems to take up where Jar Jar left off)

Hammock Rider

Any character played by John Leguizamo fits into this category, especially his roles in the Ice Age series,Spawn and the regrettable Honeymooners re-make.

Mr. DS

The chicken Billina in Return To Oz was dreadfully annoying to me. 

David Wenham in Van Helsing. 

Theres more, I'll post as I think of them...

Marlon Wayons in Dungeons and Dragons..

I second that motion. I was going to nominate Snails myself. That character was horrible.
