My issue is that they made her funny in one of the most despised and harmful female stereotypes. Seriously, you can't really defend that.
I kinda wish that they had made her a over-the-top tomboy. You know, spitting, no feminine charm, etc. At least that would have had a slight amount of her old character in it, and it's not like we are lacking in more traditionally feminine hilarious characters (like the Granny, for instance).
I just think that the stereotype of the HILARIOUS female stalker is old and stupid. So, yeah. I like the Lola better... especially considering that cliche wasn't old or overused at the time they made it. *shrugs* She was fun. And they couldn't flesh her out in a movie that wasn't even about her. I mean, all the other characters had years to build their personality. She had one movie that was focused on a star basketball player.
