I thought Kathy Bates was amazing in Misery.

Amy from Gone Girl. What a *****.

Charlize Theron's Monster

Sondra Locke in any Clint Eastwood movie, but particularly in Every Which Way But Loose. Great movie, terrible character...

Jenny Gump or whatever that hoe bags name was.

Posting someone elses take on this:

This is way late, but it needs to be said. Jenny from Forrest Gump. She gets so much ******* flak from people who have seen the movie. It's like they tuned out completely at the normal human experience just because they think Forrest is adorable.

Jenny didn't think she was in love with Forrest because she thought she was taking advantage of him the same way her father molested her. For ****s sake, Forrest is ******ed. Jenny, out of everyone who's ever met him, knows this best of all. She knows that her closest friend and only loved one is a ****ing idiot. Imagine that. Imagine for one second that the only person who was always kind to you was someone who didn't know any better. Everyone in the world who knew about your father looked at you either as a victim or as something disgusting, but that one man doesn't. And it's because he's ******ed. Jenny doesn't think that way at the start.

As a kid, she just thinks he's different and is just glad to have a friend. But as she gets older, especially as a teenager, she realizes that her closest friend will never mature like she does. He loves her like he would anything and everything else, so long as its nice or cuddly, like a pet or a sibling, at least in her mind. Her father treated her like ****, and there was no way in hell others didn't do the same when they found out she was molested. She would have wanted to feel loved. That's where she gets the abusive relationship crap. She wants so much to be loved that she doesn't understand that they are taking advantage of her. She thinks that as long as they aren't forcing her to have sex, that's normal. Getting beat on, pressured to drug addiction, and dragged around into whatever dangerously extreme political bands they're into is just fine, as long as they don't rape her.

That's why she's so shocked when Forrest defends her from harm. Why would anyone do that if what they're doing to her is normal? She keeps leaving Forrest behind because she convinces herself that he doesn't really love her. She convinces herself that his affections are shallow, since he would never be able to really understand love either. I mean really, how many of you honestly think someone who is that mentally challenged could understand the complexities and nuances of love? There's no way they could. What they have is something simple, and Jenny doesn't think that could be real. And even IF she believed he could, even IF she got out of that abusive cycle, she knows better. FFS, if that scene with Forrest and her in her college dormroom had the genders reversed, people would be so ****ing uncomfortable about that scene because it'd be inching so close to rape. Jenny knows that. She realizes that. That is why she shuts off her feelings for Forrest, above any other reasons to stay away: she thinks she is molesting him. She saw how uncomfortable he was when she did that and thought holy ****, what the hell am I doing? Can you imagine how twisted you must feel after realizing in that moment that you turned into the father who molested you? How the **** can you love yourself after doing that to your best friend, when you know what that's like? Would you ever let yourself get close to them again if you really cared about them? So Jenny kept running away. Every time Forrest gets close and saves her, she runs off before she falters. She won't let herself get near him, and as the movie goes on, she fails a little more each time. First she blows him off after the strip club, telling him to stay away. Then she walks with him in DC, but still leaves with her boyfriend. Then she stays with him in his house and finally sleeps with him, after that one critical moment. When he tells her he does know what love is, and asks her why she doesn't love him. She finally gives in and does sleep with him, but can you imagine thinking afterwards? Would you, in her shoes, with absolute and unwavering certainty, think you did the right thing? Or would you be afraid that you did exactly what you had been avoiding because you do actually care that much about him? So she runs away. She hides her child from him, because she thinks he shouldn't have to worry or pay for something he can't handle. She thinks she's wronged him, and the least she could do is set things right by raising a good child, without dragging him down. And then she gets sick. Doctors don't know what it is, but she's going to die. Her kid is only a few years old. Can you imagine struggling with that decision to tell your victim that they have a kid and now they have to take care of it because you're going to die? That's what she struggles with before coming to terms with the fact that she's happy with him, and he's happy with her, and that's what love actually is. It's something simple and unconditional, and even Forrest can understand it. It takes her her whole ******* life to figure out that love is just that simple, and she dies months afterwards. She realized she had been running away from what made her happy, and it isn't wrong, and she only gets so much time together before it's over. And instead of realizing that narrative even exists in the story, people just ***** about how Jenny is such a ****, but she won't even love the only person who cares about her. Jenny always loved Forrest, during the whole ****ing movie. She loved him so much, she thought she was taking advantage of him and ran away for his sake. She didn't realize she was wrong until it was almost too late. ****, that's depressing.

This is spot on. You turds who bag on Jenny don't understand people or suffering.

It is entirely possible to both suffer and not be a selfish pain in the ass. Understanding why she's a pain in the ass does not make her not a pain in the ass.

You just proved my point.

Janice (Tony Soprano's sister) from the Sopranos

agreed

I'm still a little scared of this woman.

Kai Winn from Star Trek DS9

Beulah Balbricker from "Porky's"

I never understood either Meryl Streep or Barbara Streisand, both pretty much creaped me out

She already got crushed by a house.

Anything where a 125# chick throws around a 250# man.

The female ghostbusters had 4 of them. All in one awful movie.

This character I see when flipping channels terrifies me

If you're talking about the goddess that is Scarlett Johansson you can stfu.

Also, pound is abbreviated lb, not with a pound sign dip *****

Uh...

Watching School of Rock tonight. She's not the worst, but Sarah Silverman's character is a borderline C U Next Tuesday.

Not borderline. Beyond the border. Quite a bit beyond.

Anything Kristen Stewart plays.

Wow... That is a excellent take on that.

the "girlfriend" Charlie in Top Gun

Jarhead

That chick who gets plowed on the tape she sent her hubby fighting in Iraq

Rose in Titanic. ***** could have made room for Leo.

Umbridge was a well written and acted villain, meant to be a terrible extension of all of the petty, horrible people we all run across taken to an absurd extreme; she's very relatable to actual people you already know well and hate, so agree to that extent.

Jenny is probably unintentionally identifiable in the same way to every guy that has been friendzoned (*raises hand*), hence the online vitriol. They/we see it from a slightly less re-tar-ded Forrest's perspective. The pretty girl who was nice to him and to whom he was nice, only to get close to nothing for his loyalty and friendship except heartbreak only after she needed support and had nowhere else to turn. Nevermind that he was legit mentally handicapped and she was psychologically damaged, no one should expect something like that to end well in real life. I also submit that if they casted an unattractive woman to play Jenny, no one would have cared and the long winded analysis of Jenny not being all bad would have been more obvious. Casting Princess Buttercup in that role is going to make every dude forget that she's actually got more issues than National Geographic. It's hard to have anything but a tragedy with their setup

Star Wars Rose was one of those characters that was supposed to be a "good guy" that you ended up rooting against, so she's worst in the "worst written/acted" kind of way with the rest of the story.

Catherine Zeta-Jones' character in Intolerable Cruelty was well done. It made me feel a bit bad for Michael Douglas given how well she played that role.
