Michael Gary Scott Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Heath Ledger joker and Darth Vader. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmasterclay Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Darth Vader- Every scene ever. He's the best. Hans Landa- The first scene, an absolute masterclass in acting The Joker- The pencil scene, of course Bane- Most scenes, I found myself to be incredibly fond of Bane despite the hate he got. He's the Brock Lesnar to the Joker's CM Punk. Especially loved the first big fight. Calvin Candie- The dinner scene Goldfinger- The "I expect you to die" scene. Iconic Dr. Evil- Every scene in the first two Not a movie but.... King Joffery- There's a bunch in season two, especially in the early going. What a prick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmandeep Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Not my favourite Villian but great scene. Bond: What do you expect from me. Goldfinger: No Mr. Bond, I expect you to die! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Gittes Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Noah Cross (John Huston) in Chinatown - one of the greatest, most corrupted, most powerful and most realistic villains ever while appearing only in three scenes. "What can you buy that you can't already afford?" - "The future, Mr. Gitts, the future!" John Doe (Spacey) in Se7en - "DETECTIVE" & the final scene Keyser Soze (Spacey) in The Usual Suspects - one of the most fascinating villains, I think, in any piece of fiction, not despite, but largely because of how much about him we can't know for certain Agent Smith (Hugo Weaving) in The Matrix - "you are the disease of this planet, and we... are the cure" Frank (Henry Fonda) in Once Upon a Time in the West (his introduction) Gregory Anton (Charles Boyer) in Gaslight - one of the most compelling manipulative bastards in all cinema Frank Booth (Dennis Hopper) in Blue Velvet - just watch the movie all right 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Gittes Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Oh, and I might be one of the few people with this strong a reaction, but how about The Caller (Pat Healy) in Compliance. I wanted to make the motherfucker suffer horribly and for as long as humanly possible. Most despicable villain of last year far as I'm concerned. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozymandias Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Every scene with Javier Bardem in No Country for Old Men. That is one of the few villains I've seen that I think is genuinely scary as fuck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Gittes Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 As an old movie lover also.... * Tommy Udo/Richard Widmark in Kiss of Death * Both Terminator Villains in Terminator 1 and 2 * Amon Göth - Ralph Fiennes - Schindler's List * Captain Bligh - Charles Laughton - Mutiny on the Bounty * Max Cady - Robert Mitchum - Cape Fear * The Step-Mother in the Sixth Sense who poisoned the little girl - her step-daughter > b*tch! I have yet to see Kiss of Death and Mutiny on the Bounty, but absolutely kicking myself over forgetting Amon Goeth. He absolutely has to be one of the scariest, ugliest and most despicable villains in cinema. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I can't consider William Bligh a villain. Sure he was a huge hard-ass and vindictive, but his crew got lazy and thought living in the tropics was better than actually honoring their commitment to the British Navy. Laughton was aces as Bligh.

Well that was my opinion of Javert in Les Mis who was only doing his job. But Bligh went over the line with his punishments and whippings. Could have just locked up the people.
