Villains

Recommended Posts

Did the search and didn't find anything, so here we go.

 

Villains have gone through tremendous numbers of iterations over the millennium.  The traditional villain was someone or something that gave our protagonist to face off against.  In my own lifetime, I have grown to appreciate just how important the villain is in a story to make it that much better.

 

I'll post my list a bit later, but wanted to kick this off to see if anyone has a favorite in a movie/book/play/etc.

 

I'll start off with one of the most iconic of my generation.  It isn't a favorite for myself, but it is for many people.  Extremely little back story, bad as hell, abso-fugin-lutely not to be fuged with:

Like the pics thread.... no rules/qualifications.  Give us a proper villain and why they need to be on the list

I left Marvel and DC comic book characters out of my list or it would be over populated with the likes of the Joker, Lex Luther, Venom, etc.

So here are my Top 10:

 

Captain Hook

STRONG Villain out of the gate!  Not familiar with the Van Damme character, so I can't comment on him.  However, Ledger's Joker is one of my favorites.  He is an outstanding mix of a number of genres that was beautifully executed by Nolan.  The Joker as portrayed in The Dark Knight gives us a look at a villain that steals scenes wherever he shows up.  He is a mixture of The Corruptor, The Teacher, The Maniac, Avant-Gard, the Allegory, and the Crime Lord.

    • Bryce just didn't maximize Hunter Renfrow's skills. ***rant incoming*** But this isn't just about Bryce Young mistiming passes to Renfrow so bad that he's going to get Renfrow killed or hurt, this is also about incompetentence by Dave Canales. Renfrow can still play. He's putting DBs in a blender out there---making them play twister at the top of routes to keep up with him, and dumb Dave has the nerve to cut him. How about putting Hunter in the best position to help the damned offense by appreciating his skill set, DC? You're letting Bryce's apparent inability to make an accurate throw, or at least his timidity to push the ball down the damned field cloud your judgment and miscalculate talent---or maybe just miss on talent just as much as Bryce misses passes due to playing pussified football. It's fúcking unacceptable.  Speaking of misjudgment, I don't know if it's Dan Morgan or Canales, but Eijiro Evero is not the business at DC. I have said a few times that his scheme is not conducive to run-stopping efficiency. Hell, and after watching some clips of plays, now I absolutely know why. The gaps are at least half open before the play even fúcking starts. You are setting the opposition's RBs up for success with too much damned space at the line and in the second level. If our guys are taken out in these areas---at the line and in the second level---then the defense is screwed because it must rely on the safeties to cover too much ground to make the tackle. At least put Ransom in who is motivated to seek and destroy if you're going to effectively leave the safeties on an island.  And speaking of rookies, get our two new defensive ends more snaps to see if we can't generate more of a pass rush. For all the good the continued sorry display of defense that you're putting out for fan's to see (Ejiro, Dave and Dan), you may as well get the rookies generously involved. Fúck that money we gave second-rate (maybe second-rate) vets, we need a damned spark getting after the QB. Watch it, it's just another breakdown of the sh¡t we were subjected to last week. I say this with all respect: Fúck you, Dave! Fúck you, Dan! Learn how to run a fúcking franchise. Maximize the players, regardless of what you think you're supposed to do by the book. Cut the dead weight before another season is lost and fans lose interest in September. EE is "Ew!" Or for emphasis "EEw!" /end rant
    • But nobody is saying he is a good deep ball passer.  But the facts are since he's returned from his benching, he has been throwing downfield.  Whether you want to credit the scheme, Bryce himself, or whatever, he has been pushing it deep.  Not to any positive results mind you, but it has been happening.
