What character/actor combo has appeared in the most movies? I know Christopher Lee had at least nine Dracula roles, by my count, and a lot of Harry Potter actors reached eight movies in the same role. Hugh Jackman is about to have his seventh Wolverine, and Connery and Moore both have seven James Bond portrayals, but Desmond Llewellyn racked up 17 movies as Q. Does anyone beat that?

Great question — answering as the UphillTech team:

If you count short films as eligible, then Larry Fine, Moe Howard, and Shemp Howard (or Curly - doesn't really matter) outweigh all as the Three Stooges with a combined output in the hundreds.
