Dags: I'm trying to think of more villains

Stripe (Gremlins)

hey Falcon

 

that's a good question. dandy has a long list.
i don't know. i like Vader as a villain i guess, but Sidious is the true villain, but i dislike him so much.
in comic books Spiderman was my favorite hero and the Hobgoblin was my favorite villain.

 

Hey Rick how goes it tonight?

 

That's difficult, because I love so many villains.

Darth Vader is hard to beat. Heath Ledger's Joker because he's such a senseless nihilist. If we're including literary villains then Cthulhu of course.

It's not one of my favorite movies by any stretch, and it's certainly not the *kind* of movie I enjoy, but Denzel Washington as Alonso in Training Day strikes a specifically terrifying chord with me because when I saw the film I was in a very uncomfortable work situation with a couple of people just like him (minus the killing and the other felonies). It's almost eerie, how well that movie captured what I was going through at the time.

Sauron is a great villain, too.

Tobias Menzies as Black Jack Randall is impressively twisted and skin crawlingly convincing, although almost everything else about Outlander makes me roll my eyes.

There are lots of others but those are just off the top of my head.

 

Darth_wanderguard Kudos to the LotR reference

 

Cate Blanchett who played the Evil Step Mother in the latest live action Cinderella movie was actually a pretty good villain. Made me really hate her.

Favorite Villains (not in order):
Peter Pan (Once Upon a Time)
Darth Vader
Sauron
Saruman
Lord Cutler Beckett (Pirates of the Caribbean)
Davy Jones (Pirates of the Caribbean)
Col. William Tavington (The Patriot)
Voldermort
Bellatrix Lestrange
Doloras Umbrige

 

Trump is not my favorite villain.

The best villain of Star Wars, I think, is Sidious...so far. It was probably Vader before the PT, but seeing the sneaky works of Palpatine/Sidious was intriguing...of course helped by Ian McDairmid's excellent acting.

 

good choices y'all

bit tired Falcon, yourself?

 

Just admit it, guys...

 

I liked Umbrige and her "medieval methods"

 

i guess i like villains that aren't totally loathesome. i don't know. like i always liked Catwoman because you always thought she might reform. some people go totally over and love villains that are charismatic. i just like it when a villain is interesting, but that doesn't make me want them to win .

as for Randall LB, he is sooo loathesome , ugh.

 

Updated.

List was fixd. ur welcome.

 

Yeah, Belatrix is great. Took me a while to actually appreciate her as a villain after killing off a certain favorite character of mine

 

can't believe this is still up on youtube. sheena was appearing on miami vice at the time too , so that's two cool points for her

 

Political discussions belong in the JCC, not a social thread here. Not the first time I've had to tell you this. It will be the last though.

 

I do believe I just warned the thread about political commentary in a social thread. See you in 24.

 

Thank you, Bardan .
Good morning all. Happy Friday!
