david tennant plays a lot of douchebags (a list)

Sep 17, 2011 00:49

SO the other day firstofoct and I were chatting about different roles David Tennant has played (for a change) and we came to the realization that the majority of them have been assholes. And since we are super objective people, we decided to rank them in an incredibly fair and accurate manner based on how much of a douche they were. Our only rule was that ( Read more... )

much ado about nothing (2011), david tennant is pretty okay i guess, do i need to make actor tags?, harry potter, hannah leads a double life, blackpool = everything i wanted and more, doctor who

SARAH PARISH IS TOO GOOD FOR HIS LITTERING, BLACKMAILING ASS

NO WONDER SHE TURNED INTO THE QUEEN OF THE RACNOSS

_thirty2flavors September 17 2011, 05:43:00 UTC

OH MY GOD I KNOW RIGHT

I WOULD WANT TO RAISE AN ARMY OF SPIDERBABIES TO DEVOUR HIS MANIPULATIVE ASS IF I WERE HER

THIS ENTIRE POST, OMG. I THINK MY NEIGHBOURS MUST BE ASSUMING I AM ON DRUGS BECAUSE OF THE AMOUNT I HAVE LAUGHED.

Also, I'm assuming due in part to the condition of both you and Hannah watching it, you didn't include SOME OF HIS DOUCHIEST ROLES. I mean, he plays an abusive, terrible bloke in Secret Smile to the extent that I was so creeped out I could not watch the second episode. And in St Trinian's he is runs a SECRET SOCIETY FOR OPPRESSED MEN and tries to hide THE TRUTH that SHAKESPEARE WAS A WOMAN (man, I want to live in the world of St Trinian's where the universe would be against this). And in LA Without a Map he flies across the Atlantic to stalk an actress... wait a minute. BUT ON THE NEGATIVE SIDE, HE ALSO CHLOROFORMS HER. AND THEN SHE ENDS UP WITH HIM ANYWAY.

Redeeming Factors: Arguably the second-best Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher Hogwarts had over seven years, so possibly Dumbledore needs to re-evaluate his hiring practices.
Verdict: Nothing trumps being a Nazi.

looooooooooooooooooooooool. THIS IS ALL TRUE.

_thirty2flavors September 17 2011, 15:25:34 UTC

LOL YEAH neither of us have seen any of that. I was vaguely aware that whoever he played in Secret Smile would probably top this list (or, well, maybe not since NOTHING TRUMPS BEING A NAZI, but at least come close) but yeah neither of us have watched that.

DUMBLEDORE'S HIRING METHODS ARE PRETTY SUSPECT. WE RANKED THE DADA PROFS WHILE DISCUSSING THIS, AND WE DECIDED:

Lupin, Barty, Quirrell, Snape, Lockhart, Umbridge

WHICH ALSO MEANS A DEATH EATER AND VOLDEMORT HIMSELF beat out Snape, so fuck off Snape.

shinyopals September 17 2011, 22:09:48 UTC

man, I am torn on Snape being beaten by Lockhart, tbh. it's like... which is worse... complete incompetence or destroying the souls of children?

but loooool Snape has wanted that job since he forever and it turns out HE'S TERRIBLE AT IT.

_thirty2flavors September 17 2011, 19:26:03 UTC

also

And in LA Without a Map he flies across the Atlantic to stalk an actress... wait a minute.

EXCUSE U

I WOULD LIKE TO STATE FOR THE RECORD THAT I DID NOT CHLOROFORM ANYONE

i just hit people with my book

I want to frame this post.

fucking up of synchronized dance during musical drug bust

BEST.

_thirty2flavors September 17 2011, 15:35:07 UTC

LOL it is clearly Carlisle's biggest transgression.

firstofoct September 17 2011, 17:49:16 UTC

Hang it up next to your Much Ado poster.

elirrina September 17 2011, 13:34:55 UTC

Hahaha, I love your list. My favorite charge of douchedom is always the last one in the list for each character, except for Peter Carlisle, and my favorite from that is "fucking up of synchronized dance during musical drug bust." :D

Now I want to see your ranking of the Doctors (that you have seen) in a similar scale.

_thirty2flavors September 17 2011, 15:36:15 UTC

LOL "BEING A LITTERBUG" was added in after lacunaz pointed it out.

I don't think I/we know enough about the other Doctors to rank them properly tbh. LOL and it would be even harder to pretend to be objective.

elirrina September 17 2011, 16:10:37 UTC

Haha!

I know, the only ones I've really seen are Doctors 8-11, and I have a passing familiarity with 4.

_thirty2flavors September 17 2011, 16:15:59 UTC

Yeah, I've seen 8's movie, and I've seen a serial or two with moooost of the others (still missing 6 and 7) but even still I don't think my list could even pretend to be unbiased. And generally I consider Classic Doctors bigger douchebags by virtue of them not having many emotions lol.
