Topic: Greatest Villain?

I saw the superhero topic and felt the need to start one about the villains.  So, who was your favourite? 

(And I didn't see that this was posted before... I'm sorry if it was.)

Re: Greatest Villain?

Re: Greatest Villain?

Hmm, Magneto from the Xmen comes to mind. But there are others far worse I suppose.

Re: Greatest Villain?

I will have a proper think about it but right now all I can think of is Palpatine. How he manipulates others and uses everything that he can to get what he wants is very funky in a bad guy.

I do also like Magneto though and of course Darth Vader are funky big_smile

Re: Greatest Villain?

I Think Venom.

Re: Greatest Villain?

Darth Vader or Sauron from LOTR, I mean he can use his evil to control and warp the creatures and peoples of middle earth, and wants to control everything. Yes I am fully aware of my geekyness.

I'd say my rabbit. Or, if you want a fictional villian, Bun-bun the rabbit.

Ha ha! I didn't think we were picking from people that are actually people.

Re: Greatest Villain?

I actually googled the #1 villian of all time and DR. HANNIBAL LECTER came up. tongue
A "villain" was defined as a character(s) whose wickedness of mind, selfishness of character and will to power are sometimes masked by beauty and nobility, while others may rage unmasked. They can be horribly evil or grandiosely funny, but are ultimately tragic. I agree a bit with Devil Girl about Palpatine.

Re: Greatest Villain?

Oh good grief.. Hannibal the cannibal.  I should have thought about that.  He gave me the creeps in Silence of the Lambs.  And it's not often I get creeped out by movies.

I agree, War Master Horus is one of the worst, but Karhn the Betrayer is a pretty close second as well as Typhus or Typhoon if you want to go by his pre heresy name, I think all of the Chaos chapter leaders are close.

Re: Greatest Villain?

Greatest villian. Umm Sephiroth from squaresoft is pretty LEGIT. And cant forget about Mojo Jo Jo from the powerpuff girls.

Re: Greatest Villain?

I don't have a favourite but some of mine are

Darth Vader
Darth Malak
Palpatine
Hans Gruber (Die Hard)
Ernst Stavro Blofeld (James Bond)
Khan (Star Trek II)
Alien (from movie)
The Terminator
The Joker (Dark Knight)


They are just some.

Re: Greatest Villain?

Sephiroth is WAY too friggin overrated!! I mean seriously, he doesn't even manage to conquer the world! Kefka not only looks creepy, he succeeds in taking over the world and basically becomes a God in the process. For an extended amount of time (more then a year)! Sephiroth is a pretty boy who doesn't succeed. End of story.

Half Dragon, half human, 100% Fett!

Re: Greatest Villain?

Maybe it's because I'm feminist but my favorite villian is Catwoman from Batman.
