Line 43:
* Bob's boss Mr. Huph from ''[[The Incredibles]]'' isn't a murderous supervillain like Syndrome or even a criminal, but he makes up for his lack of crimes with his startling [[Lack of Empathy]]. He belittles Bob for trying to help Insuricare's customers get paid, refuses to let him stop a mugger, and takes a sickening amount of glee in humiliating him. You'd be hard-pressed to shed a tear once Bob has enough and breaks every bone in his body by throwing him through several walls, [[Reality Ensues|even though he gets fired for it in the process.]]
* Lord Barkis from ''[[Corpse Bride]]'' is not just a deplorable [[Gold Digger|gold digging]] murderer, but also a smug blowhard with no good qualities to his name. Him tricking the lovable Emily into eloping with him only to murder her once he got his hands on her family's money is horrible enough, but when he cruelly mocks her for never being able to marry either the men she loved, the viewer's bound to have no sympathy for him when his own stupidity leads to his death and horrible afterlife.
* In ''[[Kim Possible Movie: So the Drama]]'' we have Eric the Synthodrone. While at first he appears to be an awesome boyfriend and just the boy Kim wants in her life, it’s eventually revealed that he’s a backstabber working for Dr. Drakken. In his defense, this is his programming. But he also enjoys doing what he does to Kim to a certain extent. And he also goes a bit further by insulting Rufus as well, which presumably wasn’t in his programming. This is likely why he dies at the end (since he doesn’t have a real way of seeking redemption), though it’s implied he can be rebuilt.
* ''[[Titanic]]'': Billy Zane's character, Cal. He [[It Will Never Catch On|disparages the Picasso paintings]]; [[Domestic Abuser|verbally and physically abuses Rose]]; [[Murder the Hypotenuse|tries to have Jack killed]]; is exposed to [[Greed|care more about money than Rose]]; and finally [[Dirty Coward|cowardly escapes on a lifeboat using a small child]]. Although he survives, he is deprived of Rose in the end, loses his money through bad investments and ultimately puts a pistol in his mouth and that is the audiences' consolation.
* ''[[Independence Day]]'': The Secretary of Defense, Mr. Nimzicki (a.k.a. [[Riff Trax|Foily McAntagonist]]). The aliens are inscrutable, have [[Cool Ship|cool ships]] and bring the [[Monumental Damage]] and massive carnage that is [[Just Here for Godzilla|the reason you bought the ticket]]. This guy knows about the aliens ahead of time but stays silent to give the President "plausible deniability." He continually pushes the use of nukes that are ineffective. He cockily celebrates victory too soon only to immediately be proven wrong. Finally he is the only person to disagree with the final plan that ends up working. His comeuppance is being fired by President Whitmore in person.
