* ''WesternAnimation/GulliversTravels'': You won't find many fans of [[SmallAnnoyingCreature Gabby.]] He's an attempt to mix the comic relief of [[WesternAnimation/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs the Seven Dwarfs]] (his design looks like a bargain basement knockoff of them, and he's even voiced by one of their actors, Pinto Colvig) with the temper of WesternAnimation/DonaldDuck into one character, but he has none of the likable qualities of either. He's a self-important and whiny nuisance who contributes almost nothing to the story (beyond leading the Lilliputians to Gulliver and warning them of Bombo's surprise attack) and he just comes off as an annoying and unpleasant person in general (although in fairness, he's not all that well liked in-universe either). And to say nothing of his shrill "nails on chalkboard" voice. His follow up short cartoons, which put him in the center of focus, only made it even more obvious how unappealing of a character he is.

* ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerryTheMovie'': Pugsy, as he is the one who got Tom and Jerry to talk and sing about how they are best friends, making them the opposite of what they usually are. It doesn't help that he has an obnoxious, overly happy attidude.

* While none of the characters in ''WesternAnimation/SharkTale'' are particularly well-liked aside from [[NiceGuy Lenny]] and [[OnlySaneMan Sykes]], the film's main character, Oscar, gets more flak than most of the others. This mainly stems from the fact that he has an incredibly [[UncannyValley ugly design]] -- simply put, Creator/WillSmith's face on a CGI fish's body is ''not'' an appealing character design -- and on top of that, is an [[IdiotHero incredibly stupid]], mean-spirited {{Jerkass}} throughout; near-constantly lying to get himself out of his problems while [[KarmaHoudini unjustifiably getting away with it]], and basically [[DesignatedHero doing very little good against a whole lot of bad]]. For instance, one scene has his friend Angie give him a pearl that her grandmother gave her so that he can get out of his debt. Oscar then decides to, instead of simply paying off his debt, [[WhatAnIdiot bet the pearl at the seahorse races]]. And that's not getting into his obsession over the ObviouslyEvil lionfish [[GoldDigger Lola]]; even after she ''[[UpToEleven describes her own superficiality straight to Oscar's face]]''. The only real saving grace is that, again, he's still Will Smith; aside from that, many have said that Lenny should've been the main character instead of Oscar.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheHunchbackOfNotreDameII'': [[SissyVillain Sarousch]] is considered an obnoxious disgrace to the Disney Villains brand -- especially by the (numerous) fans of Judge Claude Frollo, the first film's brutal KnightTemplar villain -- due to being an obnoxious, unlikeable one-note {{narcissist}} that never even comes ''close'' to being threatening. He also shares the same problem as [[WesternAnimation/{{Pocahontas}} Governor Ratcliffe]] below in that he pales in comparison to other, [[EvilIsCool cooler]] sequel villains like the creepy, Creator/TimCurry-voiced [[WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeastTheEnchantedChristmas Forte]], [[CrossesTheLineTwice gleefully-vile]] poacher [[WesternAnimation/TheRescuersDownUnder McLeach]], insane cult leader [[WesternAnimation/TheLionKingIISimbasPride Zira]], EvilFormerFriend [[WesternAnimation/LadyAndTheTrampIIScampsAdventure Buster]], and [[AntiVillain likeable]], Music/RebaMcEntire-voiced [[WesternAnimation/TheFoxAndTheHound2 Dixie]]. Even [[WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaidIIReturnToTheSea Morgana]], herself considered a ReplacementScrappy for Ursula, at least had a more established backstory and fleshed-out personality, and could be threatening when she wanted to. In other words, Sarousch is even lame by ''Disney sequel standards.''

** Shira from the fourth movie, much like Lola Bunny, is a boring "tough girl" clone of one of the main characters who only exists to serve as a love interest for Diego. Not only that, her pretty white fur and flawless face sticks out like a sore thumb amongst the more ugly pirates (which also makes it [[BeautyEqualsGoodness painfully obvious]], even to the target audience, which one will pull a HeelFaceTurn), with the only part of her that's even remotely asymmetric being that she only has earrings on one ear.

* Elliot, the one-antlered mule deer from ''WesternAnimation/{{Open Season}}'', is not only extremely annoying and unintelligent, he was also responsible for coaxing Boog into a drunken eating binge throughout the town and sabotaging one of his nature shows by panicking the audience when they thought Boog was gorily dismembering the deer through a curtain covered {{Shadow Discretion Shot}}, leading his owner to tearfully relocate him in the middle of the forest hundreds of miles away. Even though he's been living in the forest his entire life, Elliot's attempts to get him back home results in complete disaster for Boog and those around him. Even the leader of Eliot's former herd, Ian, seemed to have the right idea to banish him despite being a {{Jerk Jock}}. Fortunately, he undergoes a personality change in the second movie when trying to marry his sweetheart, Giselle, becoming somewhat less annoying and more reliable, which may have [[RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap rescued him for some.]]

* Sunflower from the centaur segment in ''WesternAnimation/{{Fantasia}}'' is hated by many, especially [[StopBeingStereotypical actual black people]], due to her being a blatant {{blackface}} character, to the point that Disney has [[OrwellianRetcon removed her from the movie]] starting in the 70's. Compare several other racial stereotypes from other Disney films such as ''WesternAnimation/{{Dumbo}}'', ''WesternAnimation/LadyAndTheTramp'', and ''WesternAnimation/PeterPan'' that keep their roles in the original movies (albeit largely for plot reasons).

* [[TookALevelInJerkass Mushu]] in ''WesternAnimation/MulanII''; all the traits that made him likable in the first film are gone in favor of this [[ItsAllAboutMe selfish]], [[KickTheDog spiteful]], and downright [[{{Jerkass}} unpleasant character]]. He tries to break up Mulan and Shang because if they wed, [[EvilIsPetty it would rid him of his guardianship]], and pretty much succeeds until his guilt gets the better of him, knowingly and happily committing said atrocities. Even though he does the right thing by the end, it's still not enough to salvage him as he still gets to keep his job due to a loophole, thus not only making that aesop he learned pointless, but also proved that there was no conflict to begin with and that all of Mushu's actions could have been easily avoided.

* All of the new characters created for ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerryTheMovie'' are scrappies, Pugsy, Frankie, Aunt Figg, Lickboot, Captain Kiddie, Squawk, Dr. Applecheeks... and especially Robyn Starling, the girl that Tom and Jerry help to find her lost father, and the one responsible for making Tom and Jerry stay OutOfFocus and making the movie being about Tom & Jerry InNameOnly. The few that aren't universally reviled (Lickboot, Applecheeks to name a few) are only liked because of WebAnimation/YouTubePoop [[StupidStatementDanceMix remixes]] and [[MemeticMutation memes]].
** Pugsy deserves a special mention, as he is the one who got Tom and Jerry to talk and sing about how they are best friends, making them the opposite of what they usually are.

** Meeko, for being an annoying {{Jerkass}} DesignatedHero who tortures Percy for no apparent reason. Meeko, Percy and Flit in general are big [[BrokenBase base-breakers]]: some things they're scrappy token [[RidiculouslyCuteCritter Cute Critters]] who ruin the movie's serious mood; others think they're comedy gold.

** Governor Ratcliffe is an unusual example for several reasons, starting by the fact that as a villain, [[GoneHorriblyRight he's]] ''[[GoneHorriblyRight meant]]'' [[HateSink to be disliked]]. But he has a very unusual reasons for being disliked among Characters/DisneyVillains - he just isn't [[EvilIsCool cool]] enough. He'd be a SoOkayItsAverage villain, and perhaps would even have a couple of fans, if not for the fact that like the rest of the movie, he had the bad luck to follow ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994'', which had Scar, who was generally considered far cooler. [[FromBadToWorse To add insult to injury]], Ratcliffe was followed by a villain who was even more beloved and cool than Scar: conflicted KnightTemplar [[WesternAnimation/TheHunchbackOfNotreDame Claude Frollo]], who was succeeded by the [[FauxAffablyEvil likeable]] and [[EvilIsCool cool]] [[WesternAnimation/{{Hercules}} Hades]], who was followed by the incredibly intimidating and impressive [[WesternAnimation/{{Mulan}} Shan Yu]], who was followed by the FauxAffablyEvil EgomaniacHunter [[WesternAnimation/{{Tarzan}} Clayton]] who was voiced by [[Creator/BrianBlessed BRIAN BLESSED]] [[note]]And that's if you don't count villains that came before Scar: FauxAffablyEvil villains like [[WesternAnimation/TheRescuersDownUnder McLeach]] and [[WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}} Jafar]], the [[NightmareFuel terrifying]] but [[LargeHam flamboyant]] [[WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid1 Ursula]], and the MemeticBadass that is [[WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast Gaston]][[/note]]. Ratcliffe just couldn't cut it compared to the otherwise-stellar track record of Disney Renaissance villains as far as coolness was concerned, and fans of EvilIsCool villains didn't forgive him for it.

** [[ThoseTwoGuys Crash and Eddie]] are considered annoying, despite the fact that they were somewhat important as Ellie's adoptive brothers who play a role in the climax of the second film when they alert the main characters to saving her from a cave [[note]] Though that's where the usefulness ends, the ensuing flood leaves them trapped on a dead tree while [[TheHero Manny]] has to do all the hard work forcing the rocks of the cave out to save Ellie, Sid hits his head on a block of ice trying to save the possums (forcing the opossums to grab him to keep him from floating off), and a [[CatsHateWater hydrophobic]] Diego [[FaceYourFears faces]] his fear of water to save those three.[[/note]] Their role was more minimal in the third aside from their devotion to Buck and the two helping him save Sid, but if you remove them from the fourth and fifth films, where they are reduced to semi-background characters who are sometimes [[LampshadeHanging called useless]] by the other characters, the story will be completely the same.

They are reduced to background characters in the fourth film, and appear only to give some gags.

* While none of the characters in ''WesternAnimation/TheEmojiMovie'' were really considered to be very interesting characters in the first place, the local comic relief character [=Hi-5=] the High Five emoji is often singled out by critics as one of the worst characters in the movie, thanks to his character failing to actually be funny most of the time, adding nothing new to the table as far as comic relief characters go, and being [[TheLoad completely useless]] most of the time. It doesn't help that the main characters go out of their way to rescue him when he faces certain doom, but not the more sympathetic character he was trapped with.

* In Creator/DonBluth's ''WesternAnimation/RockADoodle'', there's Edmond. Most people dislike him, probably due to his voice and lisp. Made even worse by the fact he's a friend of the lead character, Chanticleer. WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic probably put it best in [[Recap/TheNostalgiaCriticS2E12 his review of this movie]]:

* While none of the characters in ''WesternAnimation/SharkTale'' are particularly well-liked aside from [[NiceGuy Lenny]], in particular you'd be hard-pressed to find anyone who actually likes the film's main character, Oscar. This mainly stems from the fact that he has an incredibly [[UncannyValley ugly design]] (Will Smith's face on a CGI fish's body does not an appealing character design make) and on top of that, acts like an [[IdiotHero incredibly stupid]] Jerkass throughout much of the movie, near-constantly lying to get himself out of his problems and getting himself into trouble. For instance, one scene has his friend Angie give him a pearl that her grandmother gave her so that he can get out of his debt. Oscar then decides to, instead of paying off his debt, [[WhatAnIdiot bet the pearl at the seahorse races]]. Many have said that Lenny should've been the main character instead of Oscar.

** Pugsy deserves a special mention, as he is the one who got Tom and Jerry to talk and sing about how they are best friends, despite Tom and Jerry being, you know, mortal enemies... sometimes. Really, Tom and Jerry's actual relationship is very difficult to define, with them being enemies one minute and allies the next, and their reason for battling likewise being very difficult to define. Still, Tom and Jerry aren't supposed to talk all that often.

* Elliot, the one-antlered mule deer from ''WesternAnimation/{{Open Season}}'', is not only extremely annoying and unintelligent, he was also responsible for coaxing Boog into a drunken eating binge throughout the town and sabotaging one of his nature shows by panicking the audience when they thought Boog was gorily dismembering the deer through a curtain covered {{Shadow Discretion Shot}}, leading his owner to tearfully relocate him in the middle of the forest hundreds of miles away. Even though he's been living in the forest his entire life, Elliot's attempts to get him back home results in complete disaster for Boog and those around him.

* Juniper from ''Film/WalkingWithDinosaurs 3D'' is an odd ''Gender'' Scrappy for being a FlatCharacter and evident of the gratuitous sexism in the movie.
