November 5, 201114 yr Well, you got your wish, write-in voters. Although, I'm going to have to put restrictions on the list or there may be no consensus. 1. Fictional villains only. 2. From the media: TV, music, movies, books, comics. As usual, PM me your lists, 1-25. 1 being your favorite, 25 your least. If you can't think of 25, at least get 15. Lists are due by Friday Nov 11 at 11:59 pm.
November 5, 201114 yr i found choosing my villains to be somewhat easy. ordering them was extremely difficult
November 5, 201114 yr AFI's 50 greatest villains (From 2003). Time's top 25 villains (2007). Filmprophet's 100 villains Totalfilm.com's 100 villains
November 6, 201114 yr Now THIS is a list I can do... Prediction: Darth Vader #1 (wouldn't be the top guy for me, but on the list for sure)
November 6, 201114 yr Also, just looking at the lists linked, there are some non-human villains in there like the shark from Jaws, the Alien from Alien etc. Are we counting monster like villains as well?

I doubt half the guys from my list make it. It's such a wide spectrum to choose from.

November 6, 201114 yr QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Nov 5, 2011 -> 09:21 PM) The Emperor would be higher on my list. I had to put Vader quite a bit higher...because he's the main villain in the 2 best movies of the series. Empire puts him up on top.
November 6, 201114 yr Here's another biggie: There is LOTS of crossover between Books/Comic Books that have been adapted into Movies. Are you differentiating, say, Lex Luthor of the Superman Comics and Lex Luthor as played by Gene Hackman in the movies etc.? Do you want us to specify which version of villains that have many incarnations? Also, to the example of Darth Vader are we saying Darth Vader from the entire trilogy or specific movies, ala Empire, Jedi? I may have just made this list 100 times more complicated.
November 7, 201114 yr QUOTE (knightni @ Nov 6, 2011 -> 05:01 PM) If it's the same character, it's the same guy. Well that throws my list off... haha
November 7, 201114 yr Just did my list, and I'll be shocked if more than half of my entries are on anybody else's list.
November 7, 201114 yr QUOTE (onedude @ Nov 7, 2011 -> 10:22 AM) How about video game villians? A good half of mine are video game villains.
November 7, 201114 yr QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Nov 7, 2011 -> 10:47 AM) A good half of mine are video game villains. I could only think of a few....but they're great villians.
November 7, 201114 yr QUOTE (onedude @ Nov 7, 2011 -> 10:22 AM) How about video game villians? My childhood nemesis, King Koopa!
November 7, 201114 yr Author I only have 6 lists, guys. Please don't wait until the deadline until you send in your list!
November 7, 201114 yr How about video game villians? Wow, I forgot about video games. I had movies, TV, books, and musical theater, but no video games.
