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.

    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
    • Bro I don't mind debating you, but did you really have to write all that to get your point across.   This isn't Madden. If you have the #1 pick you literally control your own destiny. If nobody wants to trade which I have a hard time believing they won't then you obviously take the best QB.   I think we will have suitors. If that's Madden then so be it.
