A-holes of SCIFI

Or he's talking about this.

Yes. That.

Everybody on New Galactica.

Does Anakin Skywalker count? He's more of a whiny jerk that an outright asshole, but he DID become Darth Vader.
 
Ronny Cox should get a special award for being an a-hole. So should Michael Ironsides. They are just great at what they do.

Amen! Although, I'd say they're different kinds of assholes. Michael Ironside can also play lovably campy villains, like General Katana in Highlander II. Nothing about Ronny Cox's characters is ever fun, even for an instant. He's simply too damn good at creating a foil for our characters and practically begging the audience to throw fruit at him.

I did once see Ronny Cox play a good guy. He played the President of the United States in that craptacular Captain America movie back in, I think, the 1980s.

Speaking of Highlander II, the real a-hole in that movie was the corporate weasel played by John C. McGinley.

Another great corporate a-hole was that woman who ran the prison in Death Race. She was pure evil in a pantsuit.

George Lucas for giving us Jar Jar Binks and not being man enough to kill him off.

Seriously! He didn't even have to do it on screen. All he needed to do was toss in some throw-away line in Revenge of the Sith about Jar Jar Binks being transferred to Alderaan.

Jellico: He covered up Troi's T&A, the only interesting thing she had going for her.

In his defense, I always thought she was much more attractive in a regular Starfleet uniform. It seemed to fit her shape better.

I'll always think of Ronnie Cox and the nice, loveable Dad from "Apple's Way"

Never saw Deliverance? Ronny Cox dueled banjos with a inbred kid and canoed with Burt Reynolds, John Voight and Ned Beatty? Interestingly, Captain America reunited Cox and Ned Beatty.*

*There's a joke there...a sick one.

I got on that site the other day, because I hadn't looked at it in years, and it infected my computer with this really annoying malware that disabled everything I could possibly use to get rid of it. I ended up battling it for like, an hour. One of those fake antivirus programs.

Cleo from Jeremiah. Can't believe I forgot her. Total cast-iron bi***. Certainly an a-hole by the OP definition.
