Who do you think are the most overrated characters, across the board, in anything (this even means sports heroes) of all time...and why? I'll start: Boba Fett I love all things Star Wars movie related from 1-7 and I have never, ever been into Boba Fett. I love that George Lucas thinks like I do and made sure that the Sarlaac burped to prove that he was absolutely dead and digested. I'm not at all a fan of how he is constantly being shoehorned into everything and anything possible only because people think he looks cool. The prequels helped make him moderately more interesting to me with the whole 'a Jedi killed my dad' element, but even then you couldn't drag me kicking and screaming to a full length movie based on him. Protoman/Zero: I am admittedly only really a fan of the NES/SNES style of Mega Man and not into the whole X thing and beyond, but I always even thought Protoman was super overrated. Nothing's better than classic, straight up Mega Man with no cast of 'Mega Man, but cooler' characters that people seem to want to play as more. Although I'll take Protoman over Zero because I'd rather he show up in Smash Bros if it had to happen. I can't complain too much though because I like Mega Man 3 and it did give us Rush, who is awesome. So this one isn't as harsh as Fett. How about everyone else?!

He's always high on lists of greatest villains (being voiced by James Earl Jones helps) but Darth Vader is essentially just Emperor Palpatine's lackey. Hell, he's pretty much following Grand Moff Tarkin in A New Hope. Admittedly when he takes over in Empire Strikes Back is when the Empire kicks ass, but he was probably just scared of getting yelled at by Palpatine again.

Darth Maul. He had very few lines and he is basically liked only for his double bladed lightsaber and the duel. He was only really there for the fight pretty much.

I'm with E on this one, Darth Vader is for sure up there.
But overall in anything ever? Brett Favre.

Augh. This is a good one. Scarface is one of my least favorite movies ever. I get absolutely nothing from that.

I agree so much with Zero. Horrible character design. Willow from Buffy would have to be the one that's coming to the forefront of my head right now. I love Buffy, but Willow was so ing annoying and selfish. Ben Linus from Lost too, people seem to really like him but I credit his character as being directly responsible for the decline in quality after his debut. I also don't see the fuss with Darth Vader. He's fine, but no where near as badass as Darth Maul.

Daenerys, most boring character I've both read & watched. The only plot armour she has is dragons & the show writers suddenly decided she can't be burnt for some reason.
Finn from Star Wars. Doesn't have a clue what he's doing, is a coward, traitor, liar & only follows Rey because he wants to get in her pants. He's more of a villain than the main villains & I found him to be just as useless as Jar Jar, like Daenerys, he has random plot armour, when a cooler character would end up being killed.

This may be controversial, but Bret and Owen Hart. I was a Shawn Michaels fan, and when I truly got into following wrestling all the time, I took sides. Never did grow to like Bret's character. Good moves, look, and charisma, but just never fully translated for me. As for Owen, much the same goes for him, except as the Blue Blazer. Now that was cool.
One other would be John Wayne. I just cannot get into westerns and older classics of the era.

Woody and Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story. They are way over pushed compared to the Bucket O Soldiers. I would love to see a spin off movie based on the Bucket O Soldiers.
