Elliot (Open Season: Scared Silly)

Elliot is the deuteragonist of Sony Picture's Animation'sMh:greatestmovies: Open Season and its two sequels, as well as its direct-to-video sequel, Mh:awfulmovies:Open Season: Scared Silly. He is voiced by William Townsend.

Sadly, he was flanderized in Scared Silly to the point that he became very unlikable.

Why He's A One-Horned Creep Now

 * 1) He has been horribly flanderized and acts completely out of character in this film. In the first three Open Season movies, he was a gullible and dimwitted yet supportive and somewhat intelligent deer who was very hilarious. Here, however, he has become an unlikable, humorless and manipulative schmuck that's essentially a shallow representation of his former self.
 * 2) He is a much bigger jerk to Boog than he ever was before, as he puts him in danger constantly.
 * 3) When he tries to be helpful in this film, he fails at doing so.
 * 4) He made Boog a much more, bigger chicken by telling him the story of the Wailing Wampus Werewolf.
 * 5) His plan to scare the fear out of Boog and uncover the mystery of the Wailing Wampus Werewolf, is barely helpful and would put Boog into more misery instead.
 * 6) He is much grosser, dumber, annoying, disgusting, unfunny, and more cringe-worthy than he was before.
 * 7) There's even a scene where Elliot eats McSquizzy's poop, which is considered coprophilia. We wish we were joking.
 * 8) He even twerks and takes fun in making butt jokes or even having an immature and stale sense of humor as well.
 * 9) He only seems to care more about the camping trip rather than Boog.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) He was a much funnier character in the first three movies and does redeem himself at the end of the film and still means well.
 * 2) William Townsend still does an awesome job voicing Elliot.
