Timothy Brisby (The Secret of NIMH 2: Timmy to the Rescue)

Timothy "Timmy" Brisby is a minor character The Secret on NIMH (1982), and the main protagonist from its sequel The Secret of NIMH 2: Timmy to the Rescue. He is the younger son of Mrs. Brisby and the late Jonathan Brisby. In the first film, he was voiced by Ian Fried, and in the sequel, he was voiced by Andrew Ducote as a young boy, Alex Strange as a pre-adolescent, and finally, Ralph Macchio as a young adult.

Why He Sucks

 * 1) The writers decided to make him the main protagonist of the sequel despite him being ill in the first film. It even caused him and even the film to be despised by fans of the first film.
 * 2) The writers even ruined the film and his character when they made him the protagonist.
 * 3) He does absolutely nothing he was supposed to do as a hero, Jenny did all that stuff. Despite all that Timmy is still honored a hero!
 * 4) He's very impulsive and rarely thinks before he acts.
 * 5) He's useless, pathetic, and too dimensional.
 * 6) His uselessness in the sequel would make him look like the deuteragonist and Jenny the protagonist.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) He not completely useless as he worked together with Jenny and even protected her from harm.
 * 2) His voice actors did good at voicing him.
 * 3) He can come up with good plans and freed everyone, even Jenny's family.
 * 4) He cares about his family and friends.
