That boy in this movie was so annoying!


Does anyone else find that boy Jimmy incredibly annoying? I mean he complains and whines in this movie and never even give his new family a chance and always belittles them. Then at one point he says that if it weren't for his mouse he'd be a total outcast. That's no surprise. I thought it was great how that spider fell on him and scared the hell out of him. He totally deserves that.

Well, even though 'my' name is Jimmy, and I look a bit like him, I'm not offended by that. And I agree. If I were him, I'd at least give Bill a chance. And when he complains that Todd hates him, he's often the one who starts the fights.

He made it painful to watch at times.

The Jimmy character was quite aggravating, I agree, and his mother did little to correct his bratty behaviour.

Jimmy was the worst character in this film. Every scene with him was excruciating. I suspect he'd grow up to be a serial litigator or something. And really: Would a boy who loved mice so much be terrified of spiders?

I think by using Jimmy, they over played the Geek role. Jimmy was a geek to the 100th power. I was hoping that the demons would get him and never give him back and the mom and the rest of the family could live happily ever after.

Never take life too seriously, no gets out alive anyway.

I didn't find him annoying. He was actually my favorite character in the film as a matter of fact. He reminds me of someone I used to go to school with.

I've been waiting for you, Ben.
