This. At least his older version was more of an ingorant stupid even though he was REALLY stupid, but Patrick now is stupid to the point of aggression. Its as if he's doing it on purpose.
Characters in media who are so stupid it pisses you off?
- Thread starter DragonSJG
- Start date
Specifically the map guy who somehow gets lost and the dipshit biologist who gets all touchy feely with the penis snake.
(Not this scene so much but her character overall)
I find her naivety very offputting. You're just going to walk in to the Godfather of the Mob and take his kids....no way. What did she think was going on the last 7 years? She knows the family is dirty she is privy to it. I don't think she is stupid in the comical way...Where is Apollonia...oh yeah.
Damn You Fabrizio!
Wil Poulters character in Midsommar. He's either the most stupid person to ever live or the nastiest little shit who shouldn't have any friends and the movie never seems to know which way it wants him to go.
This was honestly what I thought of first when I read the thread title...
Also Barry Allen from the The Flash TV show
Yow it's this. Everyone in that movie was so hilariously stupid.
Hector from Castlevania has reached this status in Season 3 for me.
Co-signing both of these
But that is completly in character for her.
She loved MC very much and she believed in him in that he was going to make all his business legitimate. When she understood that that was not going to happen, but quite the contrary, was going to be worse with all his business in Cuba and such, she decided to put an end to the relationship and having an abortion to another male son, which surely will be taken as another mafia member by the Corleone family.
She is not stupid, she is brave. And even then , it was not enough, since she had her daughter killed because of Michael at the end.
Unless...you have issues with abortions which is another conversation altogether.
Lester from fargo season 1.
Him being dumb led to a lot of issues down the road that could have easily been avoided if he werent a god damn idiot.
Honestly it felt frustrating because his stupidity felt like a plot device for the story to develop the way it needed to be, it undermined the series for me.

You can be right about some things, crazy, and still be dumb. Haha.
I see Joey Tribbiani being mentioned a few times, great example. He started as quite lovable and perhaps just mildly goofy, but it went downhill pretty quickly. They really took the dumbness to a new painful level in the episode in which he was trying to speak French. Phoebe was quite right about that. Il est un peu retardé
Michael Kyle, Jr., AKA Junior. Goddamn, he was dumb. He wasn't super dumb in the first couple of seasons, but they had him hold the idiot ball after he knocked up his girlfriend.
I get it . However, bravery and stupidity is pretty much the same thing. Also we don't acknowledge that there is a movie past part 2.
Flash couldn't catch a non-powered guy in an enclosed tunnel.
Pretty much everything she did in the movie was monumentally dumb until the final scene. But one of the repeated sources of stupidity was constantly being oblivious to how she was going to come across to other people. Like seriously... give SOME thought to how to word things to avoid looking like a fucking loon. And it's one of those movies where the protagonist just keeps withholding information that it would help for other people to know. There were also multiple golden opportunities for her to end the threat that she failed to identify. I watched it with my sister and I found out afterward that she was just as frustrated as I was.
Luther in Umbrella Academy does this for me, but I also realize it's completely intentional. The show explains very clearly why he acts the way he does, and while I sympathize with it, it's still frustrating to see. The viewer is just here to watch the shitshow of bad decisions.
yep
characters that are written/supposed to be smart shouldn't be this dumb.
