Vaelastraz Posted September 12, 2006 Posted September 12, 2006 Inspired by the thread "greates game villain" now the same for movies... One of my favourite villains is: Hall 9000 the computer in Stanley Kubricks' Space Odysee 2001.
igyman Posted September 12, 2006 Posted September 12, 2006 Magneto from the X-Men movies. The Borg from Star Trek Darth Maul from SW Episode I that's all I can think of right now.
Pho3nix Posted September 12, 2006 Posted September 12, 2006 The Terminator T.Rex (!) Predator Darth Maul Palpatine/Sidious/Emperor Alien Xenomorph species. and...The Joker. Brilliant.
Diego Varen Posted September 12, 2006 Posted September 12, 2006 Darth Maul from Episode I The Phantom Menace - He had so much potential, but Lucas didn't give him much screentime. Darth Vader from Star Wars Original Trilogy - One of the greatest Sith in the Star Wars films. Doc Ock from Spider-Man 2 - A true villian. He starts off nice and because he believes Spider-Man killed his wife, he goes evil. At the end, he realises the error of his ways. I'll think of some more later.
Lantzen Posted September 12, 2006 Posted September 12, 2006 Predator Palpatine/Sidious/Emperor Alien Xenomorph species. and Darth Vader This is the one that come in mind now, but there is a lot more good vilians out there
St. Jimmy Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 Darth Vader Darth Maul. Tybalt (from Romeo + Juliet) ehh... can't think of any...
Jeff Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 I really liked Raz al Gul in Batman Begins, he was a pretty good villain. And of course my all time favorite is Darth Vader.
Davinq Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 Vader, Dock Ock, Palpy, Marty Wolf, Proffessor Umbridge, Mr. Smith, and my ultimate favorite, the Hood, from Thunderbirds. DQK out
Mav Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 You just can't beat Vader.nah, you could argue that Luke "beat" Vader , I vote for Shredder TMNT ftw!
Achilles Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 Don Logan (Ben Kingsley) from Sexy Beast.
RedHawke Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 Tis a sad, sad world when no one picks The Brain as a scary bad guy... "They're dinky, they're Pinky and The Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain..." Here are some of my Favorites; John Lithgow's Eric Qualen in Cliffhanger and Lord John Whorfin/Dr. Emilio Lizardo in The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai were some that were memorable. Max Von Sydow's Emperor Ming the Merciless in Flash Gordon... Anthony Hopkins' Hannibal Lechter in Silence of the Lambs... Michael Lonsdale's Hugo Drax in Moonraker, he was a very bad one wanting to annihilate all humankind.. Christopher Lee's Francisco Scaramanga in The Man With the Golden Gun... Louis Jourdan's Kamal Khan in Octopussy... Arnold Schwarzenegger's Terminator in The Terminator... Clancy Brown's Kurgan in Highlander... "I have something to say... better to burn out than to fade away!" Laurence Olivier's Dr. Christian "The White Angel" Szell in Marathon Man... "Is it safe?" Kurtwood Smith's Clarence Boddicker in Robocop... "Can you fly Bobby?" Also Ronny Cox's Dick Jones also in Robocop... Terence Stamp's General Zod in Superman II... James Earl Jones' Thulsa Doom in Conan: The Barbarian... Pei-pei Cheng's Jade Fox in Crouching Tiger: Hidden Dragon, she was as evil as they come... Patrick McGoohan's Roger Devereau in Silver Streak, he was quite a bad one... Tchéky Karyo's Corrupt Police Officer Richard in Kiss of the Dragon, a real foul one... Paul Blackthorne's Captain Andrew Russell in Lagaan: Once Upon a Time in India, one arrogant character ol' Capt. Russell... Alan Rickman's Hans Gruber in Die Hard... Ziyi Zhang's Hu Li in Rush Hour 2 was also good... plus she is really hawt! Famke Janssen's Xenia Onatopp in Goldeneye, such a good bond femme fatale! She is also hawt! Any villan played by Cristopher Walken is likely a worthy addition. Oh yeah one more would be Master Pain/Betty in Kung Pow: Enter The Fist, he works for the 'Evil Council'! I'll add to this if I think of any more... Additons... Andrew J Robinson's Scorpio in Dirty Harry... "I want my lawyer... I have rights!"
Vaelastraz Posted September 13, 2006 Author Posted September 13, 2006 Amazing list Red Hawk. I agree with most of your villains except maybe Jade Fox...she's weak and not smart. And she kills the best character of the movie one more reason to hate her! ^^^^ A few more of mine: Magneto: Ian McKellen is just the perfect actor for him. Scaramanga from James Bond the man with the golden gun. Old yes, but Christopher Lee is one of the ultimate villain actors. And rocks as Scaramanga. Jigsaw in the Saw movies. Iam surprised noone mentioned him so far His appearance as a clown and his voice are great. The Emperor (correct term? oO) in Gladiator by Joaquin Phoenix i think. Dr. Doom from the Fantastic Four. His mask, his lightning, his metallic skin... to me he is a Lord of the Sith. Raz-al-Ghul (spelling is not correct for sure) from Batman Begins Captain Barbossa in Pirates of the Caribbean.
Sadam Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 Not strictly movie, but as someone mentioned the Hood then I would definitely go with Captain Black / The Mysterons from Captain Scarlet. A few more: Count Dooku (my fave SW character) Han and his henchman Bolo (Enter the Dragon) Roy Baty (Blade Runner) Mr Morden and Bester (Babylon 5) Mayor Wilkins from Buffy the Vampire Slayer season 3.
Darth InSidious Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 [*]Max Von Sydow's Emperor Ming the Merciless in Flash Gordon... QFE "Klytus, I'm *bored*. What have you for me today?"
igyman Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 Right, I forgot about Dr. Octopus, Ra's'Al'Ghul and Commodus (the Emperor from Gladiator). Those were all great villains. Also, Stryker from X2: X-Men United was a good one and Tyler Durden from Fight Club.

HerbieZ Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 Andrew J Robinson - Scorpion Killer in Dirty Harry.
Commander Obi-Wan Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 I'd say Severus Snape from Harry Potter. It plays a villian in Harry's eyes. Vader and Sidious. Also, Spacey as Lex Luthor in Superman returns. Not many come to mind at the moment.
milo Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 I know they're not in a movie or a game (correct me if I'm wrong), but Venom and Carnage are bad-ass villains.
